VMS-25A VISUALIZER

2026
AV project
Developed during Blended Intensive Porgramme @DodekaOTTO workshop

VMS-25A Visualizer is an immersive audiovisual installation created during the Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) @DodekaOTTO workshop. Working in a cross-border Austrian-Polish creative team, the project translated the sonic character of the VMS-25A into an immersive spatial experience.

The workflow spanned collaborative concept sketching, direct acoustic sampling and arrangement in ambisonics, and real-time visual synthesis developed in TouchDesigner. Designed specifically for the DodekaOTTO’s three-channel projection setup and spatialized 3D audio, the piece binds reactive visual geometry directly to multi-channel sound fields, turning the instrument into an enveloping spatial performance.
