I Like Waves
I just learned that Gordon Monahan received the 2013 Governor General’s Award in Visual and Media Arts. The picture shows a performance of his piece Speaker Swinging, premiered in 1982. It uses three or more swinging loudspeakers and eight audio oscillators. Congrats!
Today Trond Lossius, Jan C. Schacher, and me received the Best Paper Award for “SpatDIF: Principles, Specification, and Examples” at the 9th Sound and Music Computing Conference.
This paper presents the current state of our long-term effort in creating a community-driven interchange format for spatial audio scenes. More on www.SpatDIF.org.

We are now invited to submit a revised and expanded version for publication in The Computer Music Journal (MIT Press).
I am similarly excited that the paper “An Automated Testing Suite for Computer Music Environments” I wrote together with Trond Lossius and Timothy Place was also nominated for Best Paper.
