Originally created for the spatial audio system at EMPAC in Troy, New York, now presented in three flavors as streaming stereo, a downloadable ambisonic file, and pre-rendered eight channel mono stems. Working on this one has been a lesson in spatial sound, and a learning experience attempting to distribute those sounds in an accessible way outside of institutional spaces.
Matthew D. Gantt is an artist, composer, and educator based in Troy, NY. His practice focuses on sound in virtual spaces, generative systems facilitated by idiosyncratic technology, and digital production presets as sonic readymades. He worked as a studio assistant to electronics pioneer Morton Subotnick from 2016 - 2018, and has been an active participant in the international creative community, presenting or performing at spaces such as Pioneer Works, Issue Project Room, Roulette, Babycastles, SVA Visible Futures Lab, Feral File, IRCAM, Mutek Mexico, ICST Zurich, and countless DIY venues and grassroots organizations.
