Immersive Pipeline 2: Out of the lab and into the wild

该项目，沉浸式管道2：走出实验室，进入野外，将建立在金史密斯学院以前的尖端研究环绕视听表演环境，并将它们带到大学以外的场地，用于嵌入东伦敦和南东伦敦当地社区的公共表演。最初的项目认为，虽然虚拟现实是引人注目的，但通常使用VR的头显是社交孤立的。最初的沉浸式管道项目试图在真实的空间中制作完全沉浸式的声音和图像，作为一种共享的社交体验。我们使用了Goldsmiths的Sonics Immersive Media Labs（SIML）的先进设施。在沉浸式管道2中，我们将把SIML带出校园，带到社区场所，如德特福德的奥尔巴尼剧院和哈克尼威克的老浴场。我们将把SIML投影技术带到这些场馆，并与当地组织者合作，调整他们的空间架构，以建立一个场外SIML。我们将策划一系列表演活动，向广大公众展示沉浸式视听作品。与合作伙伴Stour Space在Old Baths延长驻场时间，将为委托艺术家提供时间在社区艺术环境中创作新作品。此外，我们亦会设立一个仿真机器人的比例模型，让儿童和青少年可以玩仿真机器人。我们将举办SIMLulator研讨会，使来自东伦敦社区的学校团体和年轻人能够尝试使用来自他们自己审美文化的音乐和视觉效果制作环绕声a/v作品。我们将与领先的Creatve工作室Satore Studios合作，分享我们用于时装秀和大型体育场表演的沉浸式技术。我们还将与新的音乐慈善机构Sound & Music合作开展新声音计划。IP 2和New Voices的这种联系将使People Like Us能够在Goldsmiths使用SIML来准备一部大型美国首映电影，他们将于2019年底将其带到旧金山弗朗西斯科的重组节上。通过这种方式，Immersive Pipeline 2项目将把沉浸式媒体的研究从实验室带到野外，与艺术家和创意工作室分享我们的知识，并将这些体验带给新的受众。

The project, Immersive Pipeline 2: Out of the Lab and into the Wild, will build upon previous cutting edge research at Goldsmiths College on surround audiovisual performance environments and bring them to venues outside the university for public performances embedded in the local communities of East London and South East London. The original project took as a premise that, while virtual reality is compelling, the headsets typically used VR are socially isolating. The initial Immersive Pipeline project sought to make fully immersive sound and image in real space, as a shared, social experience. We did so using the advanced facilities of the Sonics Immersive Media Labs (SIML) at Goldsmiths. In Immersive Pipeline 2, we will take SIML off campus and bring it to community venues such as the Albany Theatre in Deptford and the Old Baths in Hackney Wick. We will bring the SIML projection technologies to these venues and work with local organisers to adapt the architecture of their spaces to set up a SIML off-site. We will curate a series of performance events that will present immersive audiovisual works to the broad general public. Having an extended residency with partner Stour Space at the Old Baths will allow time for a commissioned artist to create a new work in a community arts setting. We will also set up a scale model of the SIML, the "SIMLulator", allowing children and young people to play with a mock up. We will conduct workshops on the SIMLulator, enabling school groups and young people from the communities of East London to try their hand at producing surround a/v pieces using music and visuals from their own aesthetic cultures. We will work with a leading creatve studio, Satore Studios, to share our immersive technologies for use in fashion runway shows and large scale stadium shows. We will also partner with the new music charity, Sound & Music in their New Voices programme. This linking of IP2 and New Voices will enable the group, People Like Us, to use SIML at Goldsmiths to prepare a major US premier of a feature length immersive cinematic piece they will bring in late 2019 to the Recombinant Festival in San Francisco. In this way, the Immersive Pipeline 2 project will take research on immersive media out of the lab and into the wild, sharing our knowledge with artists and creative studios, and bring these experiences to new audiences.
