We are very pleased to welcome Peter D'Antonio on Noise Busters. Dan and George chat to Peter about his career in diffuser and room acoustics design. He talks about the foundations in starting his company RPG Diffusor Systems, designing acoustics for many space including, initially, home theaters, worship spaces, and performance spaces.   He has lectured extensively, published numerous scientific articles in peer review technical journals, acoustical and architectural magazines and is the co-author (with Trevor Cox) of the reference textbook Acoustic Absorbers and Diffusers: Theory, Design and Application, 3rd Edition published by CRC Press (August 2016). He has also contributed several chapters to the Master Handbook of Acoustics, 6th Edition published by McGraw Hill Professional 2015 and a book that reflects the life, work, and legacy of one of the greatest acousticians of the 20th century entitled Acoustics, Information, and Communication: Memorial Volume in Honor of Manfred R. Schroeder, published by Springer and edited by Ning Xiang and Gerhard M. Sessler (2015).  Currently, Peter also President/Founder of the Chesapeake Acoustic Research Institute, LLC (www.carillc.com), providing Education, Exploration and Experimentation, founded in 2007, and Director of Research for REDI Acoustics, LLC (www.rediacoustic.com), which offers wave based iterative software services.    A complete list of Dr. D’Antonio’s publications can be found on Google Scholar (https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=cLEl85sAAAAJ&hl=en).  Apologies, we had video issues and so most of this show is audio only.  If you want to be considered as a guest for the show please email us at [email protected].  #noise #acoustics #decibel #roomacoustics #diffuser #sound #physics #calgary #warrington #newyork #podcast #environmentalnoise #loudspeakers #vibration #noisebusters #audioengineer #audioengineering
