"Doug Aitken is one of LA’s finest cultural figures. He does art—film, sculpture, paintings, multi-media, etc. This art’s been exhibited in hundreds of museums and galleries around the world. Over a chamomile tea Aitken pours me, I witness segments of incomplete but nearly finished Lightscape. It leaves my arm hair standing in some scenes, and in others I can’t help but shake my head at the stubborn endearment of the human species. While cast and populated with humans, Los Angeles and its surroundings are as critical a character in Lightscape, treated with a tough tenderness we don’t often intersect with when considering Southern California: its beauty, its brutality, its relentlessly coarse and candied hues all treated with a sort of subdued respect and neutrality, and without question, stunningly photographed. Where Lightscape takes the Aitken canon and exceeds itself into a new—and frankly masterful—arena is in its sound design".

Spending time at Sphere–to work, listen and experience–made its mark on @DrazenBosnjak_ . He described Sphere as “an absolute marvel of human technological achievement.” Bosnjak added that the space, its features and resources are akin to “the pyramids of our time.” Creating and experiencing sound there was somehow like being at a divine audio altar, he observed. #spatialaudio #mach1 #qdepartment #sphere shootonline.com/article/immers…
