FutureSound Reimagine Music feature in CLOT Magazine
FutureSound reimagine music and inspire sound enthusiasts, including makers, thinkers, healers, artists and scientists globally…
The latest event in the ‘FutureSound Presents’ series was dedicated to exploring spatial sound, it was organised in collaboration with professional sound system manufacturer L-Acoustics and presented at EartH (Evolutionary Arts Hackney) on the 6th of December 2022.
On the night, the founder of FutureSound Jimmy Kyriacou shared with us that not only is spatial audio going to reinvent the way we experience music, but it’s also going to have a huge impact on how most people think about sound. With spatial technology, music can take you to a place you never imagined.
“We’re at a time in history when music, entertainment and the well-being industries will be totally transformed by the power of sound. Many people ask me, is this a new innovation? No, not really; our ancestors knew these thousands of years ago!”
With an overarching theme of The Art of Listening, the event took the form of an experiential and educational evening of expert talks, performative presentations and displays of technology, culminating with a blindfolded experience of a 3D sound work by Junkerry titled Amaurosis.

The most ephemeral and visceral and yet voice can be solidified and looked at from the outside.
