Auditory city was a free series of spatial music concerts produced by SIAL Sound Studios and performed in Melbourne’s city centre.
The events occurred in diverse locations: the local town hall and grand-organ, a laneway and a multi-channel urban soundscape system.
Each performance used components of the Studio’s 40 speaker sound diffusion system, an early version of the Studio’s diffusion software and a collaboration with a solo performer.
These events were supported by the City of Melbourne Arts and Culture Branch.
