Andrew Hair is the creative genius behind âSymbiosisâ, an open-world music game where the environment flourishes or withers in response to playersâ choices. We at Loop.Coop have been working along similar lines with our Looptopia project, so it greatly excites us to find an artist who shares our outlook.
Andrew is a sound designer for games, art installations, audio-visual shows, and moving image, and recently graduated from Brighton Uni. âIâve been intrigued by the development of music discovery/creation in game environments for a while now (I had a minor plug.dj addiction a few years ago!)â
Symbiosis is a visually stunning geometric landscape where gentle sounds shimmer and chime around the player. By gathering and planting seeds, the player can influence how the soundscape develops. This parallels ecosystems in the real world: âIf the player chooses to neglect the world in favour of personal indulgence, the environment will respond with a desolate, dissonant soundscape. Conversely, if we neglect our own needs, we will struggle to even hear the world around us.â
