Ghosts in the Machine
Narrative building through binaural sound
Raucous Exchanges - Session 2
Thursday 8 July (4-6.15pm UK time)
Online workshop and discussion with binaural sound designer Helen Skiera and playwright/Raucous’ Creative Director, Sharon Clark.
Helen and Sharon collaborated on The Foundling, an at-home, table top, immersive theatre experience that used AR and binaural sound. During this collaboration they explored how storytelling can be lifted by immersive sound, how this can engender a feeling of personalisation and intimacy in the audience member and how it can construct a visceral sense of world.

The sessions are part workshop, part masterclass and will enable you to consider your own practice/writing whilst engaging with Raucous and international collaborators to openly share skills, challenges and knowledge.
The sessions will be divided into creative practice discussions and case study sharings, with participation through tasks and discussion.
