Thanks to Rory Walsh and his Csound for Unity, I have put together a virtual reality work in which Csound playback and animation are synchronized:

Notice that the music spatialization follows the orientation of the headset. Thanks Rory!

Very nice! Would love to try this out on my headset, too

Thanks to all who responded and especially for your appreciation for
these efforts -- it means a lot to me. I am still a novice with this
whole thing and getting the app running under Oculus and HTV desktop
systems. My initial effort for a runtime version (for windows) can be
found here:

https://billalves.itch.io/asterism

Input controller systems for HTV and Oculus are currently in a state
of flux, from what I can tell. This version works on my HTV Vive but
when I try the Oculus Rift S, it seems to crash after the initial run
or when I try to exit with the grip button. I would be grateful for
any other reports and especially any offers of help or suggestions
from people with Unity VR experience. For those people or anyone
curious about the source code, I have uploaded the Unity project here:

Thanks again to all!

Bill
