After weeks of preparation, the IAA team is excited to present our latest endeavor: a brand-new podcast! For the inaugural episode, join our hosts–Head of Music Jonathan Cornell and Head of Technology Cameron Tham–as they embark on a historical deep-dive into the origins of immersive audio and sound recording technology. Their eight-decade journey begins with Disney’s experimental Fantasound speaker system of the early-1940s, eventually culminating in today’s industry-wide adoption of Dolby Atmos for film and music. Note that this podcast is best-experienced with headphones, as it’s been developed and mixed especially for spatial audio–enabling us to move specific sounds beside, behind, and above your head!
