This project is dedicated to efforts recreating the Dan Harpole Cistern in Fort Worden, near Seattle, WA. The Cistern with its 45 seconds of reverberation time is an excellent example of an immersive acoustical space. Being the recording venue for a number of Pauline Oliveros and Stuart Dempster's iconic improvisation works, the project is ideal to investigate methods of sharing and exchanging immersive media files over the internet.
