Agents

Music and sound design for an exploration of embodied conversational UI. A short film about our possible future living with AI and XR, made in collaboration with Niantic Labs.

Continuing our future-facing short tilm collaborations with artist Keiichi Matsuda and his studio Liquid City, Agents takes a far more optimistic view than our previous work on Hyper-Reality and Merger.

How might virtual agents inhabit the city? From personal assistants, to ‘spirits’ that haunt IoT objects and physical locations, giving new supernatural powers. A fresh, intuitive mental model for AI and XR.
