Binaural (3D) sound recordings for a 2D film of director Menno Otten about the Semana Santa 2012, Malaga (Spain). This is the first time I’m using the artificial head the Herrieboerderij www.herrieboerderij.nl developed for me. For the next five days and nights I find myself in the company of thousands of madly enthusiastic penitents, musicians and spectators, with producer Siem Schellevis assisting me along the way. When I listen to the recordings in my hotel room at night my headphones provide a hyper realistic rendering of what I have been listening to during the day’s events. The 3D sound experience will be paired with Menno’s and Lennart Verstegen’s 2D footage. Menno Otten’s experimental film will show how the relationship between the two works out.
