The project, Immersive Pipeline 2: Out of the Lab and into the Wild, will build upon previous cutting edge research at Goldsmiths College on surround audiovisual performance environments and bring them to venues outside the university for public performances embedded in the local communities of East London and South East London. The original project took as a premise that, while virtual reality is compelling, the headsets typically used VR are socially isolating. The initial Immersive Pipeline project sought to make fully immersive sound and image in real space, as a shared, social experience. We did so using the advanced facilities of the Sonics Immersive Media Labs (SIML) at Goldsmiths. In Immersive Pipeline 2, we will take SIML off campus and bring it to community venues such as the Albany Theatre in Deptford and the Old Baths in Hackney Wick. We will bring the SIML projection technologies to these venues and work with local organisers to adapt the architecture of their spaces to set up a SIML off-site. We will curate a series of performance events that will present immersive audiovisual works to the broad general public. Having an extended residency with partner Stour Space at the Old Baths will allow time for a commissioned artist to create a new work in a community arts setting. We will also set up a scale model of the SIML, the "SIMLulator", allowing children and young people to play with a mock up. We will conduct workshops on the SIMLulator, enabling school groups and young people from the communities of East London to try their hand at producing surround a/v pieces using music and visuals from their own aesthetic cultures. We will work with a leading creatve studio, Satore Studios, to share our immersive technologies for use in fashion runway shows and large scale stadium shows. We will also partner with the new music charity, Sound & Music in their New Voices programme. This linking of IP2 and New Voices will enable the group, People Like Us, to use SIML at Goldsmiths to prepare a major US premier of a feature length immersive cinematic piece they will bring in late 2019 to the Recombinant Festival in San Francisco. In this way, the Immersive Pipeline 2 project will take research on immersive media out of the lab and into the wild, sharing our knowledge with artists and creative studios, and bring these experiences to new audiences.
