*Really* Getting Inside The Music: Brian Eno Creates Immersive 3-D Music Installations

“Little colored bubbles float ever higher, growing larger as they rise toward the sky. People drift into a circle of six towering screens, wearing high-tech 3-D holographic visors, like moon-walkers taking their first steps in an alien atmosphere. They reach out their arms and use their thumbs and forefingers to pinch the air in front of them. Each time they do, new bubbles appear, and each one emits a single, precise musical tone. The tones combine and dissipate; there is the sound of crickets chirping, and waves of white noise. This is Bloom: Open Space.”
