A guitarra imersiva é ao mesmo tempo um capricho, um edifício em forma de guitarra de grandes dimensões, um espaço de
concerto íntimo, uma façanha de engenharia, uma exibição de sustentabilidade e, o mais importante, um novo instrumento
musical imersivo com propriedades tonais e acústicas únicas. O que começou como o sonho fantástico da guitarrista de
renome internacional Karin Schaupp de querer entrar em sua guitarra, logo evoluiu para uma jornada de design e construção
por uma equipe de design composta pelo arquiteto Bruce Wolfe, o engenheiro Dr. Hassan Karampour, o luthier Jim Redgate e
o co-diretor artístico percussionista e compositora professora Vanessa Tomlinson. O resultado é um instrumento inovador e
artisticamente inspirador, capaz de produzir novos sons e permitir que músicos e público explorem a música que um novo
instrumento pode produzir.

TIG offers a truly immersive experience to its audiences, as people are literally
surrounded by sound bouncing between the curved walls in all directions.
When performers pluck the first low notes to begin a demonstration, jaws inevitably
drop. The physical acoustic properties of the instrument are breathtaking and much
louder and more resonant than people expect. Experiencing an instrument from the
inside, understanding and seeing how it functions, feeling the power and beauty of
the sound boxes is revelatory to audience members. Audience members are able to
feel the sound vibrations along the inner walls by leaning on the walls or placing
their hands on the inner walls. Exposed to the musical possibilities of TIG, listeners’
expectations transform from a large guitar to a brand new instrument giving rise to
new musical breadth driven by experimentation.

“Curiocity Brisbane was the perfect opportunity for the launch of The Immersive
Guitar, The event and the work explore the intersections of STEAM ( Science,
Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) and reinforce that such works are possible
