ZOOM MEETING 12:00PM Noon PDT (UTC -7)

Saturday August 20, 2022

Presented by

Rona Elliot

Joyce Mitchell

Ticia Bernuth Agri

Amalie R. Rothschild

and more who, in the spirit of Woodstock, we have faith will show up at the last minute

and

The Pacific Northwest Section of the Audio Engineering Society

This will be a Zoom meeting.

Note that the unusual (for us) start time is to accommodate at least one of the presenters who will join us from Europe, and the unusual day is because this will be both a Section meeting and an edition of our weekly Tea Time Topics meetings which are not exclusively centered on audio subjects.

Tickets are free for this event, but there are also a couple of ticket categories that allow you to donate to support our events. All tickets are otherwise equal.

A much fuller (and easier to read) description is at

Pacific Northwest Section of the Audio Engineering Society Website.

Go here to get on our emailing list.

THIS EVENT IS FREE AND OPEN TO ALL. AES MEMBERSHIP IS NOT REQUIRED.

FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO SUPPORT OUR ACTIVITIES, THERE ARE TICKETS FOR $5 AND $10 AS WELL AS THE FREE TICKETS. ALL TICKETS ARE OTHERWISE EQUAL .

PNW AES Zoom Meetings

We started holding our meetings via Zoom beginning with the April 2020 meeting. Zoom has dramatically increased our reach, well beyond our Section’s geographic area. Since doing this, we’ve regularly had attendees from:

-most Provinces in Canada;

– most countries in:

–Europe,

–Central and South America;

-Japan,

-India,

-Indonesia,

-Malaysia,

-Australia,

-and more. It’s been unbelievable how many cool audio people we’ve met.

Zoom gives the ability to record videos of our meetings, and those recordings are individually posted in our past meetings Archive. For now, the collected videos from our Zoom meetings can be found (mostly) at Dan Mortensen’s DansoundSeattle YouTube channel.

We use EventBrite to manage our free tickets to meetings. You are in the right place to RSVP for your ticket for this event.

The Zoom URL and physical meeting location (if this is a hybrid meeting) will be sent in three reminders: two days, the morning of, and two hours before the event starts.

When you register at EventBrite and when you enter the Zoom meeting, please use your real first and last names so we can get to know each other. You do NOT need to create an EventBrite account to register.

Please Note

In order to maintain decorum and avoid interruptions, even unintended ones, we have established a few ground rules for meeting attendees:

1. We want to see your full name on display in Zoom at the meeting.

2. The presenter(s) will determine if they can accept questions during the presentation, or wait until specific Q&A times, and that will be announced at the beginning of the meeting. (We often use the “chat” feature to allow attendees to ask questions when they think of them, with moderators passing them on to the presenter at the appropriate time.)

3. Please mute your microphone when not talking (a moderator may mute you if you haven’t muted yourself; if they do, Zoom won’t let you un-mute until a moderator clears you again.)

4. Based on our experience with no-shows, we reserve the right to issue more tickets than available slots. We don’t want to turn people away based on inaccurate estimates of attendance, but we do have budgetary limits to the number of slots we can make available. If we reach capacity before you log in, we regret that we may have no way to expand capacity at the last minute.

5. Some presenters are distracted when confronted by a sea of video faces or other images, so for some meetings we may ask that you turn your camera/images off during the presentation. If you forget, one of our moderators may do it for you, and you may or may not get a private chat note informing you.

6. During the meeting, there is the matter of your camera. We’re going to leave that up to the presenter; whether they want to see their audience while they present or not. If they want to see who they’re talking to, then you can leave your camera live or not, as you prefer, however if the presenter doesn’t want to see the audience, then we’ll ask you to turn your video off.

7. Moderators have the ability to globally turn everyone’s video off, however turning it back on is troublesome; we are forced to turn cameras back on manually, one by one. There is no way for you to override that. You’ll need your camera live later in the meeting for the self-introductions.

8. Best is that if we ask for cameras to be on or off, that you do this individually on your own.

9. It would be good if you watched the chat stream during the meeting. Not only is it a way to submit questions to the presenters, but it’s also a way for others to contact you personally. You have the option there to direct your comment to anyone who is part of the meeting as well as to one person in particular.

Finally, in the rare instance of behavior by an attendee that moderators believe is disruptive, we reserve the right to immediately eject such attendees.
