Last week, members of the AudioLab attended and presented at the AES International Conference for Spatial & Immersive Audio at the University of Huddersfield. The AudioLab’s contributions to this event included hosting a networked concert between York and Huddersfield, 5 conference papers, a series of panel and workshop sessions, and a number of posters. It was fantastic showcase of our contributions to the field spatial and immersive audio and a great opportunity to have interesting conversations with others working in the field.
