Sound is a key factor when dealing with any degree of immersion. We define our perception of our worlds by our relationship to space. The way our minds spatially locate sounds within our environments tell our brains what sort of place we are in. The minimalist aesthetic of Sonic City empowers our brain to mentally fill in the gaps not visually seen in the environment. This action of focusing on the sound sources enables the audience to contemplate their relationship and perception of space.
