Meeting Notice: Celebrating The End of Another Year

2025/11/112025/11/11Secretary

Another momentous year for the AES Melbourne Section draws to a close.

It is a time for us all to slow down, enjoy life, and reconnect with people we don’t see often enough.

To that end, the AES Melbourne Section is holding an End of Year Dinner at Club Ringwood on Monday 8th December at 7:30pm

Those who attended last year’s dinner will remember the venue and the event fondly.
I discovered that it is surprising what can be learned from audio practitioners in very different fields from your own in a social setting.

The History and Future of Surround Sound

Tomlinson Holman presented to our Section in the face of significant upheaval caused by an upset to his travel plans. In San Francisco, unable to fly home due to fog, he presented from a hotel room there (“always have a backup plan”).

After a brief introduction from Section Chair Graeme Huon, Tomlinson commenced his presentation, which he had titled “The History and Future of Surround Sound: A Story of Death and Resurrection in Six Acts”. He started by playing a recording of “The Flight of the Bumblebee” as an Overture, commenting that this tune was selected for a reason – a choice that will be explained later – stay tuned.
