When you think of acoustics in the built environment, you may think of something…precise, like a sound rating, mathematical equation, or acoustic test report. Or perhaps you think of acoustical products that help create soft, sound-absorbing surfaces. But I bet you don’t think of the word "blurry."
In this course, we’ll dive into the blurry, gray area of acoustics. Our guest is an expert in acoustic architecture who will open our minds to the possibilities of acoustics and take us on a journey with sound that will spark new thinking about acoustics.
Approximately 30 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.

Presenter Information
Name: Zackery Belanger
Title: Acoustic Designer and Consultant, Arcgeometer
Background: Zackery Belanger is an expert in acoustic architecture. His studio, Arcgeometer, works with architects, manufacturers, designers, and artists on projects at all scales. The mission of Arcgeometer is to close the knowledge gap between architecture and acoustics through education, research, tool building, sculpture, and surface development. Notable work includes the integration of acoustics and lighting, the development of slumped glass surfaces that exhibit a range of acoustic behavior, and the exploration of the acoustic properties of books and other nonacoustic systems. He holds master's degrees of science in physics and architectural science, and was the inaugural Researcher in Residence at the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center at Rensselaer in 2013.
