Kelly Hill Caves: Immersive Audio Sound Design
Collaboration with Sandpit in partnership with the South Australian Department of Environment and Water. Part light show, part guided meditation, Sandpit created a completely unique in-cave experience for Kangaroo Island’s Kelly Hill Caves. A large array of speakers were placed in the caves and played an immersive sound design I created to complement the visuals that were projected on the cave walls.

Maryborough Railway Station Activation
A series of playful and informative experiences that bring the Maryborough Railway Station Visitor Centre and its gold rush history to life.
Sandpit worked with the Central Goldfields Shire Council to realise their vision of a contemporary re-imagining of the Maryborough Visitor Information Centre (VIC), located inside its historic railway station. The work included the creation of a short animated film, a series of beautifully designed informational panels, and a one of a kind interactive piece entitled ‘Worth Its Weight in Gold’.
I contributed the sound design for the animated film, in collaboration with animator Raynor Pettge and illustrator Daikota Nelson. It tells the story of the discovery of the Welcome Stranger, the largest alluvial gold nugget ever found, weighing in at approximately 109 kgs. The animation plays on a dramatic, 180°, floor-to-ceiling LED screen.
