German-French TV channel "arte" visited us for one whole day to film our audio recordings of "Erwartung" and to talk about the future of opera, and how we use Virtual Reality and gameplay to draw viewers into the world of Arnold Schönberg.
You can watch the segment, which includes interviews with other opera houses and opera makers as well, on Oct 30, or in arte's media library afterwards.

German media outlet "Bayerischer Rundfunk" visited us the other day to witness our orchestra perform "Erwartung" for the 3D audio recording. They write:
"For the ultra-real listening experience, the 3D sound of the VR game, the Augsburg Philharmonic Orchestra recorded the music at a concert hall in Augsburg. A square iron frame hovers above the orchestra, specially made with a 3D printer and equipped with numerous microphones. The orchestra itself is also teeming with microphones."
All this hard work of the audio department and the orchestra will integrate seamlessly into the VR game at the end. Read the whole article here:
