The Creative Technologies Research are holding a Sounds in Space symposium on 17th June 2011. We've got a TiMax system to demo (http://www.outboard.co.uk/pages/timax.htm) and a talk by Tony Churnside from the BBC among the current highlights! However, we have space in the program for works, posters and talks by others. If you're interested (in attending, or contributing!), please see further details of the event at:

Sound In Space: Exploring visual and sound arts practice, the symposium will present a number of original spatial sound works including a multichannel "collaborative sound canvas" comprising sound events developed, captured, processed, composed, and assembled by students and staff of the Faculty of Arts, Design & Technology. Introducing leading edge research in surround sound technology, education and application, the aesthetics and implications of a shifting paradigm in sound creativity through technology will be explored in an intensive, immersive and playful way.
