Keynote Speaker
This year’s Keynote Speaker is Gerhard Thoma. Thoma has been leading the department of acoustics projects at BMW for more than 20 years. His speech will highlight many aspects of perception and acoustics from an unusual point of view: What does a driver in a car need to hear, what does he should not hear, and how can the acoustics and sounds of a car help to significantly enhance driving pleasure and safety?
Many of the sessions not mentioned here will be of
interest to students, depending on their specialization and
progress. Especially all Tutorials,
Master Classes, the
Live Sound Seminars, and many of the
Workshops have much to offer.
