Dublin Convention Wrap-Up

AES146

AES 146th Convention
Location: Convention Center, Dublin, Ireland
Dates: 20-23 March, 2019

The 146th Convention drew to a close on March 23, wrapping up four days of audio science and education that drew attendees from 47 countries. “It was a pleasure to bring the AES convention to Dublin for the very first time,” commented Convention Co-Chair and Dublin resident Enda Bates, “and an excellent way to kick off the formation of the new AES Ireland regional section in style. It was also great to see a more diverse range of presenters and topics, something which was specifically highlighted by many attendees as a welcome development.”

One important outcome is that over 100 Papers and Engineering Briefs presented there have been posted in the AES E-Library. AES members get free access!

Among the awards presented at the Opening Ceremony, the prestigious AES Silver Medal was presented to Jamie A. S. Angus-Whiteoak for a lifetime of important contributions to audio engineering and instruction, and for outstanding achievement in the field of audio engineering.

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 Marina Bosi, a pioneer in the field of digital audio coding, as well as a Past President and Fellow of the AES. Introducing this month's edition, Marina says "Few of us would have dared imagine the revolutionary impact that audio coding would have on the general consumption of digital media... I've compiled a set of links to papers and other resources to introduce you to some of the fundamental issues and challenges arising in audio coding. You don't need to be an audio codec designer to understand the basic principles behind this powerful technology and to ultimately apply it correctly".
