Dear Auditory List,
I hope you won’t mind a follow-up email giving some more details about the other positions in the project. Apologies for the second email from me this week and for cross-posting. Thank
you and happy holidays!
Best regards,

POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITIONS IN IMMERSIVE AUDIO
We are recruiting postdoctoral research associates who will work on a large-scale research programme “Challenges in Immersive Audio Technology (CIAT)” conducted in collaboration between King’s College London, University of
Southampton and University of Surrey. There are 6 positions available, two at each university.
ABOUT THE RESEARCH PROGRAMME
Immersive technologies will transform not only how we communicate and experience entertainment, but also our experience of the physical world, from shops to museums, cars to classrooms. However, long-standing fundamental challenges
adversely impact on audio technologies, preventing immersion into realistic acoustic scenes in which the audience feels transported to an alternate reality. Specifically, state-of-the-art immersive audio technologies a) suffer from computational requirements
preventing real-time creation of high-quality interactive immersive audio experiences, and b) are limited in their ability to efficiently deliver shared auditory experiences in 3D soundscapes to multiple listeners. CIAT’s vision is to overcome these challenges
and transform the state of the art by developing a principled, scalable and reconfigurable framework for capturing and reproducing only perceptually relevant information.
POSITIONS
