Stormy Weather

Once again we find ourselves with a pile of news stories and insights from around the AV industry, and a host of guests to talk about how they affect the commercial space.

As Hurricane Dorian makes its way across the lower part of the US, we discuss what can be done to keep systems secure during extreme weather conditions like a hurricane. Looking at the protocols in place for AV during natural disasters.

London-based SPOR AV is looking to create a standard for conference collaboration rooms. Are pre-designed collaboration rooms viable for integrators? Considering when it’s time for pre-fab and time to get customized for your client.

AVWeek started in late July 2011. It is hosted by Tim Albright. Albright started his professional life as a broadcaster in St. Louis. In the audiovisual industry, Tim has worked as a technology manager for Lewis and Clark Community College, control programmer, design consultant, and design engineer. The first episode of AVWeek, episode 0000, was recorded via Skype with two AV pros Albright met via Twitter and a long-time friend. Since that first episode in July 2011, AVWeek has produced a weekly program missing only one week in the first year.

Albright also taught radio and audio production for over 14 years, including introducing podcast production to his students in 2006. He resides on the Illinois side of the St. Louis, Missouri area where he and his wife raise their two children. AVWeek is based, in part, on the TWiT (This Week in Tech) model of podcasts where the host reads a news story and panelists provide their insight, analysis, and opinion on the subject matter.
