Spatial Composition: A Talk & Demonstration

Join AES U.K. and industry colleagues as we explore SPACE as core compositional element, and its effects on audio production, at Polygon Portal in Soho. Composers have been using rhythm and melody for thousands of years; harmony for centuries. Musique concrète expanded the use of timbre, often referred to as the 4th element of music, some 75 years ago. Are we at the verge of another musical disruption? What if, using space as a compositional tool, songwriters, composers, and producers not only mixed but composed in and for immersive systems? Can SPACE become a new element of music? Following the tremendous success of their recent events in San Francisco, Hollywood, New York, and Tokyo, AES U.K. invites you to this industry-exclusive session – the latest research presentation and demonstration about the use of space in synthesis, music composition and production by composer Julius Dobos and producer BZ Lewis. Audio engineers, producers, composers, songwriters and music creators of all disciplines are encouraged to join us to network, explore SPACE as an element of music, and experience demonstrations of new, spatially-composed works at Polygon Portal.
