Escape Cave.
The idea of escape cave is based off my 1st year experiences and current work. I’ve found a huge passion is escapism with sound. Recording sounds of nature & outdoor sounds without pollution. Something therapeutic about it that makes me feel at peace. The idea of the Escape Cave goes back to most peoples inner childhood. Duvet/Sofa/Blanket forts. Made us feel safe as children and as if we were in a secret location hidden away from everyone. I’m also heavily into visual arts as a collaborative aspect to go with sound. The idea i had was to shoot a short film based on landscapes around Scotland land with 16mm or super 8 film camera.
Then to add my own field recordings and audio to create a 10 minute soundscape/landscape visual/audio experience. The audio experience would be quadraphonic to create bigger immersion. I would then play the film through a projector inside the fort that would be created at the venue.
The participant would have to go inside and sit and watch the immersive experience in a safe environment away from the world for a 10 minutes.
