ASCENDED INTELLIGENCE
Role: Composer & Sound Designer | Project Type: Immersive Interactive Installation (SXSW 2026)
PROJECT INSIGHT
A spiritual successor to the award-winning Consensus Gentium, Ascended Intelligence is an immersive “Spirit Tech” installation that explores neuro-emotional calibration and ancestral wisdom. Colin was tasked with creating a “Tribal-Futurist” score, blending raw jungle rhythms and urban electronic textures with deep, atmospheric soundscapes.
Beyond the composition, Colin’s sound design was fundamental to the interactive experience—developing distinct sonic palettes for varying emotional states and “vibrational frequencies.” The result is a reactive, ritualistic audio environment that mirrors the participant’s journey from a hyper-real “Smart City” grid to a state of spiritual liberation.
