Future Sounds Sampler

MPC3000AD words

"Sound is something that multiple people can experience at the same time and sort of respond to as a group. It strikes me that embedding people in a soundscape enables much more immediate emergent responses than sitting them down and having everybody read a scenario at the same time."

"You can recreate things that exist, but then you can also push them a little bit more and think about things that don't exist and just model whatever your imagination can think of."

"I’ve been trying to understand people’s embodied experience of sound… ie. how does it feel when you experience dissonance? All of these sensations, they're quite fragile and they’re easily masked, we simply block them out."

MPC3000AD words

"You can have this emotional response through music without it being translated into logical sense... evoking mood is both in a kind of literal sense, and in a more metaphorical sense, two important things if we want people to have feeling about future ideas."

"What can you appeal to in people's hearts rather than in their minds and this comes back to music because it's like, I wouldn't say it's a shortcut to people's emotional core, but it certainly works."

"The way we interpret sound information is different than the way we interpret visuals. Which has implications for how we can organize this stuff, to influence other people or give them a certain type of feeling or give them a certain type of experience.”
