Some work from my PhD thesis uses augmented reality goggles to perform
what I've called audiovisual scene synthesis, a generative collage
process built using a model of human perception. Participants wear
headphones and goggles which attempt to learn both the auditory and
visual scene, presenting its "interpretation" as a generative collage
through the microphone and goggles:
