Universitat, Berlin as the Edgar Varese Visiting Professor. Paul normally lives

his regret, Paul does not play any musical instruments.
Talk:
20 years of Open Source Audio: Success, Failure and The In-Between
I will talk about the 20-year history of open source audio development (focused on Linux but
including other platforms when appropriate). It is a story that includes successes, failures and
a lot of more ambiguous elements. I will discuss the way that the open source model does and
does not help with software development, and also the sometimes surprising ways that "open
source" might be pushing audio and music technology in the near future.
