Introduction

The idea of this footage was to record ambisonic sound and 360°/VR video content in outdoor conditions and to obtain both interesting background sound and 360° image in higher resolution with the help of a custom constructed 360° rig consisting of 8 BlackMagic cameras. Due to the 360° video recording, we wanted to choose a place to be visually attractive. For this purpose, we decided to use the roof of the PSNC building , which allowed us to get amazing scenery and a lot of details. From the musical point of view, we recorded Jan Skorupa’s original contemporary composition entitled: „The Noise and The Structure”. This composition is written for string quintet (double bass, cello, viola, violin, violin), five crystal bowls and an electronic layer performed live in an eight-channel octagonal system. All the musicians, as before, were placed in a circle, in the middle of which an ambisonics microphone and a camera rig allowing for 360° recording at 16K resolution was set up.
