History

Augustine Leudar is a sound artist who specialises in 3D audio art, surreal surround sound installations, audio holograms and sonic illusions. Soundscapes created in Peru were featured at Pragues' national gallery, the Rudolfinum in 2006, as part of the Impresse exhibition and accompanied the paintings of Czech painter Otto Placht. He created the largest sound-art installation in the world at the tropical Biome at the Eden Project,[1] in Cornwall, England, and other large scale installations for many events including Glastonbury's Shangri La, and Futuresonic in Manchester. Recently several multichannel sound installations[2] in forests and botanic gardens across Europe and South America have sonified electrical signalling in plants and forests. Leudar is artistic director of immersive art studio "Magik Door".[3]

Otherworld

Otherworld is an ongoing development of an immersive installation which covers several acres of parkland created by Leudar. It incorporates mythological themes as well as advanced interactive and immersive 3D audio-visual content. It was first delivered at the Hastings Storytelling Festival in 2019.[4]

Holomorph

Holomorph was one of the world's first public exhibitions of interactive 3D sound art. Originally developed at the Sunflower Festival in Northern Ireland and subsequently displayed at various locations in Europe.[5]
