well for what it's worth i made an album 'Diaspora' in 2003 that featured this
sort of audio material pretty heavily. for much of it i made a couple of game
environments and played them to generate the output, mixing it up in PureData.
you can download the *.ogg's here (tracks 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 esp):

one derivative 'Fast Core Routines' was dispersed at the Sydney computer music
festival and also appeared at the SFMOMA as a part of a project called 'Variable
Resistance' but neither were an installation as such.

i've been to a few installations featuring sci-fi like sets and/or props but
none had lighting or audio featuring in the presentation..

it's my feeling you have plenty of room to move here!

chairs,
