What is the #edinburghimpact of all of this? The University of Edinburgh is failing students and staff. Time they started demanding UCEA came back to the negotiating table with something meaningful. #ucuRISING

I've seen some great talks at Audio Engineering Society #AESeurope. I also enjoyed giving my talk on spatial room impulse responses today! Also it's incredibly nice sunny weather!! (paper here aes.org/e-lib/browse.c…)
