AES Cancels May Convention in Vienna, is Working on Virtual Event

COVID-19 forced cancellation of the Audio Engineering Society’s May 25-29 convention in Vienna, said the society Monday. Organizers are “working diligently” to put together a “virtualization” of the convention’s technical program as “an engaging, compelling, educational and productive online experience," said AES. The virtual event will feature video presentations of technical program content “along with live- and forum-based dialog with presenters,” it said. Details will be shared as they become available.
