In recognition of the 50th Anniversary of the AES Melbourne Section, we have compiled a short history of the Section, its achievements and notable characters.
There are three parts to this:
Section History:
A full overview of the Section’s activities 1974-2024.
The Conventions:
A major achievement in the 1980s-1990s was the mounting of six Regional Conventions in Melbourne and Sydney.
Here is a detailed coverage of the Conventions.
(A work in progress – 1984 & 1988 currently covered)
Historical Meeting Notices:
Email was not in widespread in the years before 2000, so meeting notices were labourously typed, photocopied, stuffed into envelopes, and mailed out.
To get a flavour of those time here are some meeting notices from our archives.
The subject matter is fascinating.
Here are some of those Historical Meeting Notices.
