Five composers from the Interactive Composition department at the University of Melbourne present new works exploring eight speaker multichannel audio. Featuring PhD candidates and staff members, these works explore the possibilities of spatialised sound through lenses including sonification, visual media, artificial intelligence and virtual reality. The works investigate themes of climate change, AI, environmental connections, trauma, technology, scientific approaches as creative tools, and movement as sound. Artists
