Sound and music strongly relate to this notion of presence. In the workshop we will explore strategies for the production of meaningful sound (or music) for this immersive environment and address aspects related to the conceptualizing, the making, the recording, the editing and the postproduction of a sound field. Participants will work on editing and montage examples that integrate auditory, visual and tactile experiences.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 21px; "><span style="font-size: 11.5pt;
