Description
This workshop will center on how various researchers and industry practitioners approach the task of creating multichannel soundscapes intended to immerse the listener in sound, from music to environmental soundscapes as well as sound effects and ambiences for film.
This workshop is being hosted in conjunction with Distinguished Lecturer Chris Chafe’s visit, and he will be involved in the informal discussions that stem from each invited speaker’s presentations.
Note: Lunch will be provided for all registered participants.
