Motivation

For this project I wanted to incorporate ideas that would really allow a listener to appreciate the spacial accuracy that binaural sound provides. Although this is something that does not happen in everyday life, I decided that it would be interesting to hear the sound of masking tape being peeled off the listener's head. I also thought that hearing the sound of a bee buzzing around one's head would make good use of binaural sound.

Based on these initial ideas. I decided to create a scene where the listener is sitting in an attic and the owner of the house an elf-like creature with a squeaky voice, comes home to discover the listener trapped in the attic. The elf-like creature promises to rescue the listener and unwraps the tape from around his head. You can to the binaural audio file below. For the best effect, I would recommend listening with a good pair of headphones.
