Jingle Jungle recording studios: Legion camp brought to life
The sound artists at Jingle Jungle have created an audio drama for the newly opened Vindonissa Legionnaires' Trail. Visitors to the archaeological site are transported back to Roman times through headphones.
The sound artists from Jingle Jungle have produced a radio play for the Department of Culture, Education and Sport of the Canton of Aargau. At the center of the action are the archaeological excavation sites of Windisch. Visitors to the newly opened Vindonissa legionary trail listened to a radio play with surprising appearances by gods, adventurers and legionaries via headphones. In order to create the most realistic listening experience possible, the audio plays were mixed in 3D acoustics. The different soundscapes of the eight stations were recorded at original locations or re-enacted in the studio. A total of 100 speaking roles were cast and recorded for the work.
