Lost and Found in the Forest

Lost and Found in the Forest

An immersive experience in which the participants embark on a journey into a magical forest with 360 visuals and audio.

Lost and Found in the Forest is an interactive audio and visual experience, in which the participant will experience a fully immersive world. An individual experience, the participant will be taken on a journey in which they experience sound and vision in a relaxing and safe space.

In this immersive experience, participants will have a magical experience in which all of the senses are engaged. The audience will experience storytelling in a responsive environment utilising a 360 environment with a soundscape comprising music, song, sound effects and poetic spoken word. The experience will be fully immersive and take the person to another place, both visually and through sound.

The use of headsets will be the medium through which this is experienced and the sound will be binaural and take the audience member on a dreamlike journey.

The visuals will be created to go alongside the audio sound track which will comprise original music composed by me, sounds from nature recorded in forests and a story telling sound track in a combination of verse and prose written by me.

The experience will take place in a space that is safe for the participant to move around in and the participant would be supported through the process.

Aims of the Project

Virtual and augmented reality is a new area for me to explore. I have always felt stifled by my lack of expertise and knowledge in this area, and I feel that the funding will allow me to experiment with a whole new range of possibilities.

I aim to research this area of creative practice to fully understand the potential that it can offer and also to research the methods by which this aspect can be incorporated into performance and art based projects.

I intend to acquire some equipment that I can learn to use and develop a new piece of immersive visual work. I will be writing a new piece of work for this project and this will be a mix of prose and poetry, This will be recorded in a studio and produced with original music , composed by me and sound effects recorded in nature and transposed into the sound track. This will add a dimension to the visual to enhance the experience.
