"Audio and Architecture: Unfolding Sound with SpaceMap, A Layout-Agnostic Approach to Multi-Channel Sound Design"
Colloquia - Steve Ellison
Ellison's talk will focus on a technique for sound panning he developed that has been embraced by Repertory and Broadway theaters, Spectacle Productions such as Cirque du Soleil and Dragone, and musicians including John Williams and Herbie Hancock. What are the challenges that sound designers and composers face when realizing multi-channel works in the real world, with the constraints of physical architecture, and how can they be overcome?
Steve Ellison is Applications Director, Digital Products for Meyer Sound Labs of Berkeley, CA. He joined Meyer Sound in 2005, when LCS Audio, the company he founded in 1992 was acquired.

Acoustics Workshop - Steve Ellison
Just what is an "optimal acoustic" ? Does this exist?
In this informal session, we will measure the room acoustics of Grant Recital Hall using Aurora running under Audacity (freely available) as well as Dirac (B&K, commercial software) using impulse response methods and compare the results. In the process we will de-mystify some commonly used acoustic measurements including reverb time measurements RT, T20, and EDT.
Friday October 18, 10:30am. Grant Auditorium
