Recombinant Media Labs

Naut Humon's new Recombinant Media Labs (RML) facility is featured in the October issue of MIX magazine. Created as a bridge between cultural, commercial, and educational worlds, RML features a traditional recording studio, a video editing suite, a modular analog and software synthesizer chamber, and a large flexible black box theater with 16.8.2 surround sound, a 10-screen high definition video system capable of projecting panoramas of up to 360 degrees, and 32 transducers in the floor for that ultimate infra-bass experience. Reflecting Naut's long-standing interest in spatial audio, Recombinant Labs employs a hybrid of several techniques for sound spatialization, including vector-based panning, Ambisonics, and wavefield synthesis using clusters of speakers to pixelate a localized sonic 'image'. A fully-loaded Kyma system is on hand for artists in residence interested in doing customized synthesis, processing and spatializing. Naut's dreams for the facility include collaboration, creation and education: "We fully welcome any organization or individual interested in the prospect of a creative collaboration." Check out the RML website and consider making a proposal to Naut at Recombinant Media Labs.
