We thank you all for your support over a year. We started the year with a KTP associate, Kola Alabi, and PhD student Ekim Bakirci joining us to bringing the group to a full complement. Rebecca Page won the Nti-Audio award for best Diploma project. Three journal papers were published in JASA, Building Acoustics and the Journal of Acoustics on Sound of Performance, Alternative Speech Sources, and Rigid Plates. Ten papers/presentations were given by staff and students at various in-person conferences including: IOA 50th Anniversary in Manchester, Inter-Noise in Nantes, and outside of acoustics with the Hearing Conservation Association in Birmingham and the British Academy of Audiology in Telford. The Art of Being an Acoustician was run at the National Oceanographic Centre, Southampton with Diploma, Masters, and PhD students in attendance. Links with the IOA were strengthened with Diploma students presenting at the January London branch meeting, in July the Masters’ students presented, and in May the IOA held their highly successful AI in Acoustics meeting at LSBU. Enterprise activities grew with the IOA Short course run twice with 19 candidates, Royal Academy of Music collaboration continuing, cooperation with Foster + Partners, work with the Royal Opera House and with the Bickerdike Allen/National Galley on highly unusual experiments. In 2025 we look forward to the results of two significant research grant bids. We hope you all have a great Christmas.
