 ===========================================

Sound and audio is a fundamental aspect of our everyday lives. We create
or listen to musical sounds for pleasure or relaxation; we are informed
or entertained by speech and music on radio or TV; and sounds from the
real world can tell us what is happening around us.

This Audio Day brings together researchers and collaborators engaged in
audio-related research projects linked to the University of Surrey,
including projects on musical audio repurposing using source separation;
spatial audio in the home; making sense of sounds; and creative commons
audio. Many of these are collaborative projects, including members of
the Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing (CVSSP), Institute
of Sound Recording (IoSR), Digital World Research Centre (DWRC) and
Centre for Digital Economy (CoDE) at Surrey, plus many other partners
including the University of Salford, the University of Southampton, BBC
R&D, and Audio Analytic.

To open the Audio Day, we are particularly pleased to welcome Philip
Nelson, Executive Chair of EPSRC, as our Keynote Speaker. The  Day will
include a wide range of talks from members of several of these groups
and partners, plus the chance to find out more in posters and demos, an
opportunity to network over lunch, and will end with a panel discussion
on future directions for audio-related research.
