Re: [Sursound] Research on HiDef and surround audio for the web
The BBC at Salford are getting in to thinking seriously about spatial audio, production workflows and delivery formats - see: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/researchanddevelopment/2011/07/bbc-rd-launches-the-audio-rese.shtml They've been doing some experimenting on ambisonics, looking to see if 'with height' (periphonic) is likely to be worth the overhead in the foreseeable future. Graham Thomas is heading that up Regards ppl Dr Peter Lennox School of Technology University of Derby, UK tel: 01332 593155 e: p.len...@derby.ac.uk -Original Message- From: sursound-boun...@music.vt.edu [mailto:sursound-boun...@music.vt.edu] On Behalf Of Rev Tony Newnham Sent: 15 August 2011 09:43 To: 'Surround Sound discussion group' Subject: Re: [Sursound] Research on HiDef and surround audio for the web Hi You could try some of the engineers who are members of the Institute of Broadcast Sound - Mike Felton & Florian Camerer have both published articles on the subject.

[Sursound] Reminder: Birmingham Fellows
Hi all, On behalf of Jonty... __ Dear Friends and Colleagues, This is just a reminder about Birmingham's new programme for post-doctoral fellowships. These are five year posts, aimed at attracting world leading researchers, with the idea that fellows who meet their agreed performance targets will be offered permanent academic posts at Senior Lecturer or Reader level (in terms of academic rank these are the UK equivalents of a research returning Professor) at the end of that term. There are two possible posts in Music, one in Creative Music Technology, and one in Ethnomusicology and/or Popular Music. These are grouped under the broad heading ‘Twentieth Century Music’, but Twenty-First Century researchers are, of course, welcome as well! For the Music Tech post, we're interested in receiving as broad as possible an array of applicants, including (but not limited to) researchers interested in sound analysis and synthesis; signal processing; audio spatialisation and spatial simulation; music computer informatics; experimental musical interface design; human-computer interaction for music; gestural control; tangible user interfaces; programming for audio, including experience with domain-specific computer music languages such as SuperCollider or Max/MSP; network audio; and audio recording and production. Experience as a composer is of course welcome, but the focus of this post is on the tech side. For the Ethno/Popular Music post, it's similarly wide open. Please forward this message to any potentially interested parties! http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/excellence/fellows/about/index.aspx http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/staff/excellence/fellows/areas/twentieth-century-music.aspx The first deadline (for the submission of an online application form, a 3-page CV and a 500-word research statement) will be 17.00 on Thursday, 1 September 2011, but the call will remain open until all the posts are filled. In case of questions, please write to me at BOTH the email addresses below (I shall be travelling during August and may not always have easy internet/email access).
