At the October 2017 Audio Engineering Society’s national convention in New York, HEAR Now presented a special ‘reading’ of Shakespeare MacBeth Act IV, Scene 1, while at the same time shaping some staging around a binaural microphone head, that plays with proximity, intensity, and arrangement.

The performance, inspired in part by the recent Tony winning Broadway show “The Encounter,” featured a Soundman dummy “head” with 2 DPA mono omni-directional capsules.
