I’m a cultural geographer and interactive narrative designer whose research and creative practice explores how people engage with place through playful, site-specific, experimental and/or immersive media forms. I am currently working as a Research Associate at the Digital Cultures Research Centre, based in the Pervasive Media Studio at Watershed, a digital creativity centre in central Bristol.
R&D – A Guide to Creating Spatial Audio Podcasts
Spatial audio is changing the way we experience recorded sound, making it possible to add entirely new layers of sonic presence to narrative storytelling mediums. As the emerging field continues to come into focus, standards are being defined in real time — making it a crucial time to experiment and share information across the space.

Experience the famous orchestral suite “The Planets” by Gustav Holst, played by the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, as an interactive audio walk in a park near you, increasingly all over the world. All you need is a smartphone and headphones.
In seven parts the seven planets Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are characterized musically. In our app you can find these planets distributed in the park and visit them.
Immerse yourself in an intense musical experience of The Planets. You can freely move around and explore the immersive sound field of the orchestra.
Get on a shuttle that will take you through space. You navigate it with your feet, walking.
Play an auditory treasure hunt that takes you from planet to planet via binaural 3D audio. Listen to the direction from which you hear speech and music and find your destination.
Float on the music, through space, in the park near you.
“The Planets” is a production by Sofilab.art and the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, supported by the Film and Television Fund FFF Bavaria.
