Fulldome & Planetarium
Fulldome scores
Orchestral surround scores for the dome, built in the studio.
A set of scores written for fulldome planetarium films – each realised in the studio as a multi-track, virtual-instrument orchestral surround mix for the 360° dome. Made for planetariums, science centres, and immersive-media studios including Planetarium Hamburg, UNC Morehead, the Infoversum, Mirage3D, and Evans & Sutherland.
Evans & Sutherland · 2016
Edge of Darkness
A tour of the solar system’s far edges through the robotic missions that mapped them – the cliffs of comet 67P, the bright spots on Ceres, and the first close views of Pluto and Charon, from 2015 mission data. Narrated by Hayley Atwell; premiered at the FullDome Festival, Jena.
Mirage3D · 2016
Life Under the Arctic Sky
A 360° dome documentary following the Sámi reindeer herders of northern Norway across the tundra, beneath the midnight sun, the polar night, and the aurora – shot on ten expeditions above the Arctic Circle. Honourable mention, FullDome Festival Jena.
UNC Morehead Planetarium & Science Center · with writer Will Osborne
Solar System Odyssey
An anime-styled dramatic show for younger audiences: with Earth’s resources spent, pilot Jack Larson is sent to find a new world, and comparative planetology – Saturn’s rings, Io, Titan – shows how rare an oasis Earth is. NASA-funded, drawing on Hubble and Mars-rover data.
Planetarium Hamburg
The Green Planet (Planet Erde: Alarmstufe Grün)
Produced and premiered at the Planetarium Hamburg – a fulldome show on Earth’s living systems, “life between ice age and greenhouse.”
Infoversum, Groningen · 2014
From the Sun to the Sun
The flagship 3D opening film for the Infoversum dome in Groningen, a co-production with Mirage3D initiated by astronomer Edwin A. Valentijn. It traces energy through the universe – from the sun, across space, and down into the gas fields of Groningen – closing on the shift to renewable energy, and is known for a hyper-detailed fly-through of the historic city.
