Episode 9: Robert Chafer

from Midlands Music Musings · host Midlands Music Research Network

Robert Chafer is a multichannel audio-visual composer and PhD student at De Montfort University. In his PhD, he researches the opportunities afforded by the cutting-edge technology of mixed reality as a platform to present his work. While the user is subject to a visually enclosed digital content only experience with virtual reality, mixed reality augments the physical world with digital content. Moreover, mixed reality technology understands its environment so sounds and image content can be placed relative to space, rather than fixed relative to the user. Listen to this episode and learn about this new revolution in audio experience. Rob would like to express his gratitude to the Midlands4Cities Doctoral Partnership, the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC), and De Montfort University for the opportunity to conduct his research, and to Tim Hall for the recording and production of this episode.
