Real-time sound spatialization, software design and implementation.

'Real-time Sound Spatialization, Software Design and Implementation' explores real-time spatialization signal processing for the sound artist. The thesis is based around the production of two prototype software projects, both of which are examined in design and implementation.
The first project examines a conceptual method for performance based spatialization mixing which aims to expand existing analogue designs. 'Super Diffuse' , proven performance grade software and the encompassing M2 system, is submitted, for model evaluation and example.
The second project focuses on Physical Modelling Synthesis and introduces 'Source Ray Pickup Interactions' as a tool for packaging real-time spatialization digital signal processing. Submitted with the theoretical model is the 'Ricochet' software, an implementation of 'Source Ray Pickup Interaction'. 'Ricochet' serves as a model evaluation tool and example of implementation.
