The adaptiveaudio web site allows IASIG members to post articles, opinions, and questions about adaptive audio, then respond with comments and ideas regarding them. While posting is limited to IASIG members, the articles and information are for all to view. The site will grow as articles and responses to them increase, raising key questions about adaptability in audio. A vast searchable database of adaptive audio information will emerge from community participation, becoming a goldmine for those creating adaptive scores. The aggregate information will be organized and codified, bringing about a common language, and hence a basis of communication for discussing adaptive audio. Adaptive Audio Now will follow and encourage the evolution of adaptive scoring by featuring post mortem articles about recent game scores and current technology. Media and demos will support and compliment many of these articles, offering the opportunity to hear many techniques and technology first hand within this forum. Also, users of the site will be able to post links to relevant articles posted on other sites, which will keep viewers and participants returning for updated news and information. The hope is that Adaptive Audio Now will become a hub for all things regarding adaptive audio. In the past, composers and sound designers have been on their own, figuring out the best approach to an effective adaptive score, reinventing the wheel yet again. Adaptive Audio Now will build a critical mass of people and ideas, enabling us to move beyond the basic adaptive features heard in contemporary media. An open minded community is necessary to leap the technological -and psychological- hurdles which inhibit our ability to produce highly nuanced adaptive scores. |
