Space, Sound, Emotion – Acoustics as a Defining Design Element
AV Stage, Hall 4
12:45
Adequate room acoustics are essential for creating emotional experiences with speech and sound. They serve a dual purpose: in the recording studio, they provide the foundation for the creative shaping of the soundscape – precise, controllable, and accurate. In playback spaces, such as concert halls, cinemas, museums, or immersive installations, they ensure that the high-quality sound environment can fully convey its emotional impact to the audience.
In this presentation, Noy will examine these two key areas of acoustic application: the challenges of room acoustics in audio production, and the electroacoustic and architectural strategies that support impactful audio reproduction.
Whether you are an audio technician, producer, sound designer, or planner, this session offers detailed and up-to-date insights into the theory and practice of modern room and electroacoustics.
Room Acoustics and Electroacoustics – Immersive Audio Experiences for Modern Installations
Speakers Corner, Hall 1 (A1–B15)
15:00
In contemporary audio and multimedia installations, room and electroacoustics are vital to delivering a high-quality auditory experience. Noy will outline the fundamental principles of room acoustics and how they affect the natural distribution of sound within a space. He will also explore how electroacoustic systems and immersive audio technologies can be strategically employed to create powerful, enveloping, and emotionally resonant soundscapes.
This session will inspire planners and end users alike to expand their technical knowledge and explore new, practical approaches to acoustic design.
