A data dive into Patreon As long-time readers will know, I’m keen to cover the speed and scope of changes within the film business. The industry has experienced a greater degree of flux in the past decade than in the previous century, and yet more shape-shifting is on the horizon. This transformation makes it a fascinating time to be entering or studying the film industry. One of the areas of significant change is the evolving relationship between artists and audiences. Historically, there have been many levels of middlemen between the artists (i.e. writers, directors, actors, etc) and their audience (i.e. the people who actually pay to watch their work).

Creating easy, readable attributes with ActiveRecord enums - Justin Weiss Imagine a question that can be either “pending”, “approved”, or “flagged”. Or a phone number that’s a “home”, “office”, “mobile”, or “fax” (if it’s 1982). Some models call for this kind of data. An attribute that can have only one of a few different values. And that set of values almost never changes. It’s a situation where, if it were plain Ruby, you’d just use a symbol.

University of Surrey opens doors to 22.2 listening room Institute of Sound Recording is offering access to its experimental workspace equipped with a range of reproduction systems from stereo to multi-channel. The Institute of Sound Recording (IoSR) at the University of Surrey is now offering access to a new 22.2 critical listening room that utilises Genelec 8330A SAM studio monitors and 7350A SAM subwoofers. HHB Communications supplied the technology as part of Genelec’s sponsorship programme to the IoSR and the university’s Music and Sound Recording (Tonmeister) degree. The ITU-R BS.1116 listening room, designed and built by Munro Acoustics, is used by students and researchers to undertake experimental work involving audio measurement and subjective listening tests. The ITU-R standard is the most critical international standard for listening rooms, with strict criteria for low noise, controlled reflections, dimension ratios and reverberation time. “The seminar was a great addition to the Tonmeister programme,” Mason continued.

Sad day for technology education as Alchemea closes - PSNEurope Alchemea College, the music technology/pro-audio teaching school set up in 1992, ceased trading on Friday 1 May. SSR (School of Sound Recording) London, a similar institution based in Camden, has agreed to take on current Alchemea students “without cost”, while those who have paid a deposit for a course will have the chance to move to SSR. An announcement posted on the door of the Windsor Centre building in Islington – just around the corner from the PSNEurope office – explains that the building’s lease is due to expire in March 2016, and while the directors had been working “flat out to attract investment to facilitate” funding a new lease, all efforts have “proved unsuccessful”. The directors took professional advice and were told to put the business into administration, says the note.

The Conundrum Of “Ears Versus Education” By Karl Winkler • April 14, 2017 I’ve been thinking quite a bit about the role musical education plays in audio mixing. There have been numerous threads about the subject in several on-line forums, and the responses seem evenly divided between “not needed but it doesn’t hurt” and “it’s actually a hindrance” and “it certainly helps.”
