When BR was once exhibitor to the Highend audio fair at MOC Munich in 2015, I also managed to get Prof. Dr.-Ing. Karlheinz Brandenburg (commonly labelled as ‚the inventor of mp3‘) into the ‚audiophile’s lions den‘ (as he put it).
His lecture on „The Brain, Auditory Perception and the Search for the Perfect Illusion“ was highly regarded, resulted in a full house and – of course – very enlightening.
Later that day I had a chance to recap with Prof. Brandenburg on his insights in this interview.
It was held in German, but you may add English (or German) subtitles for accessibility.
