Immersive Experiences

Lobe’s 4DSOUND system immerses listeners in a soundscape without perceivable sound-sources or ‘sweet spots’. The addition of vibrotransducers in the floor provides tactile sound so that listening is a physical, multisensory experience. The uniqueness and nuance of this sonic environment encourages engagement with the ways by which sound and listener co-exist. Sound immersions support contemplative practices and tune the sensory pathways that connect individuals to that around them. 

Context Points:

  • Multi-sensory engagement with sound

  • Durational, interactive experiences

  • Group listening: differentiated subjective hearing

  • Somatic experiencing: hearing based on movement and position in space 

  • Contemplative and meditative practice
