Why is that Sci-Fi? – Synphonics & Sound Design
What do alien worlds sound like? What makes an exciting soundtrack musically? What different possibilities do composers use to transport us to distant galaxies and how does it all affect us and why?
Semir Ayar and Tiffany Gauger address these exciting questions in a joint discussion.
From symphonic film music and Nono futurism to electronic music and sound design. From Jerry Goldsmith to John Williams and Hans Zimmer, from Dune to Tron, the pair will take a brief look at the world of sound and share their knowledge with each other. Of course, Star Wars and Star Trek are not to be missed. Look forward to a friendly and informative exchange of blows! We don’t yet know exactly where it will all lead!
So: Drop by and listen!
