Autobiography
Just in case you're wondering ``Who does this guy think he is?'' I'll tell you... This is the bio I usually send out when someone asks me for one. It's reasonably up-to-date.
Originally from St. John's, Newfoundland, Geoff Martin completed his B.Mus. in pipe organ at Memorial University of Newfoundland in 1990. He is a graduate of McGill's Masters program in Sound Recording and, in 2001, he completed his doctoral studies in which he developed a method of simulating reflections from quadratic residue diffusers for multichannel virtual acoustic environments.
Following completion of his doctorate, Geoff was a Faculty Lecturer for McGill's Music Technology area, where he taught courses in new media, electronics, and electroacoustics. In addition, he was a member of the development team for McGill's new Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Music Media and Technology (CIRMMT). He taught electroacoustic music composition and conducted the contemporary music ensemble at the University of Ottawa. He has also been a regular member of the visiting faculty in the Music and Sound Department at the Banff Centre for the Arts. He holds the positions of Tonmeister and Specialist in Sound Design at Bang & Olufsen a/s in Denmark, where he has worked since 2002.
Geoff has been a member of the http://www.aes.orgAudio Engineering Society since 1990 and has served on the executive for the Montreal Student Chapter for two years. He was the Papers Chair for the 24th International Conference of the Audio Engineering Society titled ``Multichannel Audio: The New Reality'' held at The Banff Centre in Alberta, Canada. He is presently the chair of the AES Technical Committee on Microphones and Applications.
He is very happily married, and he and his wife, Cassia expect their first child in early 2007.
