Hi! My name is George Kierstein and I was wondering about possible scholarships/artist rates since the symposium site is still lacking attendance rate information.
I am part of a group of 8 artists from Asheville NC who are putting on an Ambisonic event/show on June 18th. We are very excited about the artistic capabilities of the technology and would love to be able to come to the symposium. We aren't researchers but have been working with the generally available tools for our compositions. We are all budget-concious as is our show - we are planning on using a 8-speaker cube layout for sound re-enforcement system. Not to sound stereotypical, but we all fit the barely-employed artist description rather well so any kind of financial aid to be able to attend would be really welcome!
