Description Program Srvc AccomEnvelop creates and facilitates immersive listening experiences through physical venues, virtual venues, and open-source software tools. We have built and operate Envelop SF, an immersive music venue open to the public in San Francisco, California. We started work on the build-out of the space in January 2015. Envelop SF was completed in March 2017, and we offered our first public events in May 2017. We host various events (5-10 events) every month, including live performances, DJ sets, album listenings, wellness events, educational workshops, and studio sessions. In May 2019, we held our first public events in Envelop Pop-up, a mobile immersive audio venue that can be set up anywhere. In April 2020, we created Envelop Stream, a virtual listening space to serve a worldwide community remotely. These listening venues and their events advance our mission and impact by bringing three-dimensional music and immersive listening to the public. We also create free and open-source software called Envelop for Live. In 2015 we created the first beta version of Envelop for Live, and we made a general release available to the public in May 2018. Envelop for Live allows artists to compose and produce immersive music for playback or live performance at an Envelop venue and other venues that support immersive audio or playback on virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR/MR/XR) systems. Envelop for Live helps us advance our mission and impact by fostering the creation of immersive music content and making it accessible, inexpensive, and equitable for musicians to start composing and producing immersive music for public benefit. Envelop for Live is developed and maintained by Envelop with open-source contributions by numerous programmers across the United States and worldwide.DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt
