Chris Lacinak of AudioVisual Preservation Solutions, as well as a long term participating member of AES, will make several contributions to this year’s convention. He will be presenting at a tutorial titled “Audio Preservation at the National Audio-Visual Conservation Center (NAVCC)”, and will introduce Brad McCoy, who is a Senior Sound Engineer at The National Audio-Visual Conservation Center, Culpeper, Va.

“This tutorial will discuss audio preservation at the Library of Congress’ National Audio-Visual Conservation Center (NAVCC) that was recently completed in Culpeper, VA. It will also give an overview of the NAVCC, a state-of-the-art facility for storing and preserving recorded sound, video, and film materials.” The tutorial will take place on October 4, 11:00 am — 12:00 pm

In addition, Chris will be co-chairing the standards committee workgroup on audio metadata and will be working towards the standardization of the emerging audio metadata (SC 03-06)

Chris hopes to have an active and productive conference and looks forward to sharing what he learns from his colleagues.
