The Laptop Orchestra of Louisiana is exploring the interface between electronics and music, computers and performance. This semester it has explored the concept of Extended Reality(XR) or the mixing of virtual and real spaces, or hybrid worlds. In many ways music and sound design have existed in the realm of extended reality long before the term existed - the audience listening to music here in the present but transported to otherworldly destinations.

Extended Reality (XR) is the latest incarnation of virtual worlds, augmented reality and the multiverse. In collaboration with the LSU XR Studio, the Laptop Orchestra of Louisiana is exploring live performance in XR with live projections, motion tracking, interactive electronics, and more laptops than you could shake a joystick at.
