Cloud 9 Nirvana
- We intend to create a 9-stage experience leading to "Cloud 9," the state of nirvana, tranquil bliss, or ecstasy. We draw upon the idea that, in a classic path toward nirvana, the subject feels increasingly lightweight and unencumbered, shedding perceived physical and mental burdens. Our intention is to recreate this experience by programming sound depending on the amount of users at once in this defined space. For example, if there is 1 person averages every 5 minutes in an hour time frame, then audio content is solo moments (buddhist chant, ecstasy, classical music, intimate moment.) If there is more than 2 more averaging every 5 minutes in an hour time frame, then audio content are group moments (cheering, laughing, playing, toasting, socializing, jazz music) "Cloud 9" is a spatial and auditory representation of nirvana. by Katherine Lee, Fiorella Gu, Gabriel Medina, & Carol Chiu
