forewarding jobposting Montreal area:
The Shared Reality Lab at McGill University is hiring a qualified
developer for our "In Situ Audio Services" (ISAS) project. This
involves developing spatialized audio rendering on mobile devices for
the blind community, providing them with an enhanced sense of location
awareness and an ability to actively explore their surroundings. The
project is funded by the Minstère des services gouvermentaux and Google
Research. The developer will start from our initial audio rendering
software, written in Pd, running in the ZenGarden library on the iPhone
platform, and augment this with parameterized control from the
application, being developed in Objective C. Additional tasks will
involve adding content to and querying our geospatial database, and
managing the polyphonic audio sources that may be driven from a
combination of text-to-speech, pre-stored files, network streaming, and
local audio synthesis.
Suitable candidates should have a strong programming background and
experience with digital audio, in particular, real-time synthesis,
spatialization, and sound design. Pd or MAX/MSP experience is
important, and some familiarity with the iPhone SDK a significant
benefit. Additional skills of value include technical writing,
knowledge of CPU performance issues, and experimental design.
The initial contract will be for six months, starting in January, or as
soon as the slot is filled, and may be renewed. Salary is $40k per
year, plus benefits.
To apply, please send your CV and cover letter to [email protected].
