STEPHEN REILLY: The idea for the audio so far.
As soon as a user steps in front of the brain a drone will play showing that the interaction has started and the user will reveal the different parts by pressing the buttons on the model head. I will upload the drone soon, I have got a few loops off my friend Joe which are probably suitable.
I am going to arrange 4 short audio tracks to resemble the brain sections. I am going to use sampled drum beats, melodies, vocals etc. These will run continuously and quickly fade in when selected by the user.

An extra part of the interaction will show how the effect of drugs on the brain, we have decided to show the effects of cannabis and cocaine. I am currently researching these effects. So the 4 original sounds will be affected by filters, delays, wave-shaping, pitch shifting in max msp hopefully letting the user feel a grasp of the effect. There will be buttons activating these effects, which will trigger audio resembling the particular drug. There will also be an wet/dry amount to show different levels of intoxication.
