My primary goal in creating music that dives into the ‘cryptoacoustics’ is to immerse listeners into a musical representation—or artistic interpretation—of how one might perceive these sounds in person; creating a sonic landscape that transports the mind from the auditorium to various places throughout the world, and create the illusion of being in a wholly different environment. All three pieces were composed for Ambisonic listening.application/pdfen-USAmbisonics; Mirum Terra; Perry JonesMusicmusicThesis
