Description:


    ARe is a sophisticated sound-rendering technology that allows sound to be experienced as a spatial environment. mTropolis is a highly visual, object-oriented authoring environment that enables modular design of interactive experiences. These two tools are designed to complement each other so that sounds produced and manipulated in AVRe can be seamlessly integrated into mTropolis’ multimedia applications. AVRe developer Thomas Dolby of Headspace and mFactory President Hamish Forsythe demonstrate this unique method for integrating visuals and sound, and answer developers’ technical and creative questions about its possible applications in their own projects.
