Could you be a Reviewer for the Dublin Convention?
AES 146th Convention The papers chairs for the Dublin convention are looking for new reviewers. They say "this year we wish to broaden our reviewer base in both quantity and diversity and as such, in addition to our experienced reviewers, we would like to encourage new people to volunteer to review for the conference in their area of expertise. A larger pool of reviewers will help us both reduce the load on our existing reviewers and help broaden our knowledge base and help us make an even better convention program." See the Call for Reviewers for more information.
October Inside Track Features Audio Networking
The AES Inside Track features expert industry curators highlighting a topic of choice, with editorial insight as well as links to related research topics, videos, and more. It's available exclusively through the AES Member Portal and is a member benefit, free to all AES members. This month's curator is Kevin Gross, chair of the Network Audio Systems Technical Committee, who introduces some key resources on the topic. As Kevin explains, the most recent work in this area is AES67 which has gained traction not only in audio applications but has been extended to network audio and video with the publication of the SMPTE ST 2110 standards suite for use in broadcast applications. This month's Spotlight video interview, hosted by Francis Rumsey, features Jon Allan talking about his paper in the July/August AES Journal about the evaluation of live loudness meters.
