.XAmbassadors unveiled a new mobile app that allows visually impaired fans to enjoy an immersive, audio-only experience
-- which allows for 3D placement of sound using Microsoft’s Windows Sonic technology in combination with each device’s axis-based motion sensors. Both Casey and Sorokas compare the experience to that of augmented reality [AR], which places computer-generated objects in real-world environments via a user’s smartphone or other digital device.
The Boom experience begins with a brief instructional walk-through by Casey, after which listeners are prompted to choose from two different “soundscape journeys”: One created from field recordings of the Harris brothers’ hometown of Ithaca, New York, the other from recordings of the Bushwick, Brooklyn, neighborhood where their former rehearsal studio was located.
Though the app is designed to tell a very specific story, it is lightly customizable, including a slider that allows users to set the mix between music and sound effects. And of course, the movement of the body is important in getting the full experience. “Even when all the instruments are playing, if you turn your tablet or your body a certain way, you can listen sort of between the instruments to the sounds, and vice versa,” says Casey.
