The Last Bus: A Sound Journey
"Last Bus" is an ambient audiovisual piece structured in three parts: fear, arrival, and calm. The soundtrack was built using field recordings, ambient textures, and layered sound design.
The visual part was live-coded in Hydra and features generative digital motion synced with the emotional tone.
The background buildings were modeled and rendered in 3D in Blender, adding depth and urban realism to the night setting
