    ORGANIZED BY THE AUDIO ENGINEERING SOCIETY INC. Invitation & Preliminary Program 108TH AES CONVENTION PALAIS DES CONGRÈS PARIS, FRANCE 2000 FEBRUARY 19-22 PRELIMINARY PROGRAM CHAIRMAN’S WELCOME Dear Attendants, Only a few weeks to go until the 108th AES Convention opens its doors to pro- audio specialists from around the world. With an extensive Convention Program and Equipment Exhibition, the first AES event of the new millennium will present technologies and ideas, both established and visionary. This Paris Convention is the ideal location to help guide you through the latest trends and technological changes. The turn of the millennium heralds groundbreaking innovations in the pro-audio sector. Multichannel audio, for example, seems as important a breakthrough as was the introduction of stereo. After a long period of technical fine-tuning, we are faced with the basic aesthetic and artistic questions, and once again the AES is there to help you make the right choices. For over 50 years, the AES and its Conventions have been the link within the international audio community: a forum for exchange of new ideas. At the dawn of the new millennium and the age of globalisation, the role of the AES will be more important than ever before. As Chairman, and on behalf of the 108th Convention Committee, I am very pleased to announce an exhaustive Convention Program: 19 paper sessions that To participate, please include over 100 papers, many technical tours and 15 challenging workshops, return the advance registration form by providing a framework for professional fact-finding on the highest level. February 11, 2000 The student activities too will be more intense than ever before, thus contributing to the AES Convention’s recognition throughout the world as a major platform for future generations of audio engineers.

  • Introduction
    Music THE SOUND AND THE UNSOUND Introduction “I don’t care how good of a home a child has been brought up in, and how it’s been taught to do right; if that child hasn’t accepted the experience of the New Birth, rock and roll music catches his attention just as quick as he hears it. Because in him, born in him by nature, is a carnal spirit. And the power of the Devil is so great today that it catches the spirit of that little one.”1 Americans are addicted to music. It is an addiction that last year alone, cost us seven billion dollars2 and helped make music the most prosperous industry on earth. However, we are not without company. The whole world has tuned in with us to become a part of the greatest social phenomena in all of history: Rock’n’roIl music. Rock is now a generation old, and that in itself is nothing short of a miracle for something that was dismissed by the previous generation as being a flash-in-the-pan, in-one-ear-and-out-the-other, teenage craze. Even though we live in an era of blinding changes, rock has been able to assimilate, integrate and even mutate its way through nearly five decades to become something that is much more than music in the ear of the rock- believer. Resurrecting the deep-seated spiritual attributes of its ancient forbearers, rock has now achieved the elevated status of deification. In every sense, it has become a religion, complete with a full contingent of its own high priests and false prophets.
