Lost Communications: Underwater
Have you heard that fish talk?
Do you know the underwater world is super noisy, like a market, full of life and communications?
"Lost Communications: Underwater" is a new live performance project that explores the acoustic world of marine life. Using their DIY 360-degree hydrophone set, immersive compositions, and Unreal Engine, the duo records sounds from coral reefs, fish, whales and other underwater creatures, integrating them into original 3D compositions and visuals. The result is a unique underwater soundscape brought to life through a multi-sensory hybrid online and in-person performance, engaging the audience to an immersive world of different dimensions.
Hybrid In-Person & Online Performance
Using cutting-edge AI technology, we will transform underwater sounds into a 3D digital world with dynamic visuals, allowing audiences to experience a magical underwater world through three formats: VR, desktop (digital), and projections (physical). The in-person audio-visual performance will be added with interactive gaming elements for its online version. An-Ting and Ian will be projected into the 3D world using Kinect cameras, enabling real-time interaction with audiences through their VR headsets.
Underwater is supported by Sound UK, Immersive Arts and Norwich University of Arts, the work the expected to be premiered in 2026. If you are interested in co-commission/partner with us, please email [email protected]
