Co-founded by artist and composer Arthur Sauer and researcher Erwin
Roebroeks, The Game of Life is the world's only mobile Wave Field Synthesis
system. Wave Field Synthesis is a spatial audio rendering technique for the
creation of virtual acoustic environments. It produces 'artificial' wave
fronts synthesized by numerous individually-driven speakers. These wave
fronts seem to originate from a virtual starting point: the virtual or
notional source. Contrary to traditional specialization techniques such as
stereo, the localization of virtual sources in WFS does not depend on - or
change with - the listener's position. The Game of Life Foundation
facilitates the creation, production, programming and promotion of
cutting-edge spatial sound projects. Coinciding with Sónar festival, the
system, with its 192 specially designed loudspeakers, is one of the
projects featured in "Oferta Pública / Public Tender": Rita McBride's solo
show at MACBA. SSON[I]A talks to Arthur Sauer about immersive sound,
spatial electronic music, and other applications of Wave Field Synthesis.
