The music visualisation “ECHO – Eine Sonosphäre” by Franziska Hauber and Michael Gamböck in a spherical projection is designed for the consideration in VR-glasses and fulldome. A bassy HipHop-Instrumental is visualized by a journey through a vinyl disc. The viewer can experience a record in a way, that he has never seen before in real life. He is the needle of a record player, gliding along in the groove of therecord and seeing deposited dust. In this dust the individual hairs do have their separate movements. During the trip the realistic image of the disc will change into a more abstract version with changing shapes and colors.

The song is specially written for the project by the artist Thomas Simonetti, based in Augsburg. He has reinterpreted an old song of his for this purpose.

One significant difference of ECHO compared to other VR-Productions is the use of depth of field. The viewing eye is directed and influenced by this conceptional method. The visuals are mainly designed in Autodesk Maya 3D, using the renderer Redshift realizing realistic and abstract content.

A fulldome show for planetariums and digital dome theatres.
