Audio and Video Seminars

Friday, October 28

Mechanics of Vinyl Playback

Presenter: Micha Huber

When: Friday, October 28, 3-4pm

Where: Thornhill West (see floor plan page 10) Cost: FREE with TAVES ticket

Vinyl playback is a complex interaction of

many mechanical factors. Various parts are

composed to work together in order to convert

the LP-groove into an electrical signal. Since

most of those mechanical processes take

place in very small dimensions, it’s not so easy

to imagine them and get an overview on all

the influences appealing to them. During this

seminar, we will explore the interesting aspects

of this very traditional way of music playback,

which continues to improve. This will help us

to understand our equipment better, get the

maximum out of it and – finally – forget about

the technique and enjoy the music.

Saturday, October 29

Moving to 4K

Presenter: Greg Cameron, Vice-President,

JVC Professional

When: Saturday, October 29, 11am-12 pm

With the world of quality 4K content still

slowly coming into its own, we discuss the

successes of transitioning to a 4K system with

E-Shift Technology.

folder structure, storage and backup, ripping,

possible choice for your home theater. Topics

covered will include amplifier power, speaker

efficiency, surround sound codecs (including

Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and Auro 3D), room

Cutting Edge Ultra HDTV Technology:

Why TV Continues to Look Better

Presenter: Mike Osadciw

When: Saturday, October 29, 2-3pm

Where: Vaughan West (see floor plan page 11) Cost: FREE with TAVES ticket

It’s been a few years since 4K TVs entered

the market promising greater detail than HDTV.

But it was not until 2016 that UltraHD 4K

televisions began to deliver bright, colourful,

and dazzling life-like images never before

seen in the home. What has changed since

then? Why are the images now brighter with a

significant improvement in colour? What makes

Ultra High Definition Television a revolution

in consumer TV rather than an upgrade?

What other equipment and compatibility is

needed to enjoy such fascinating images?

Join NOVO Magazine’s Video Contributor

Mike Osadciw as he explains why Ultra HDTV

technology has a significant impact on the

way we watch our favourite programs using

current LCD and OLED technologies, and

what’s to come in future.

Digital Music Player Shopping Guide

Presenter: Frank Labonte

When: Saturday, October 29, 3-4pm

Where: Vaughan West (see floor plan page 11) Cost: FREE with TAVES ticket

Are you considering taking the plunge into

digital music players? Do you know

exactly what you need? Do you understand

what you’re buying? The world of digital

music players is very convoluted. No one would

blame you for feeling lost and confused.

We invite you to join this workshop to help shed

some light on the topic. You will learn all

about the issues that face consumers when

shopping for digital music players. Topics

covered will include music file servers versus

digital music players, Sonos, digital to

analogue converters (DACs), USB DACs,

features, control options, connectivity, computer

based solutions, file storage (SSD, HD,

RAID) and backups. All are welcome so please

come and join us!

Saturday, October 29

Young Innovators Showcase

Presenter: Various

When: Saturday, October 29, 11:30am-1pm

Where: Grand York B (see floor plan page 10) Cost: FREE with TAVES ticket

Be inspired by startup entrepreneurs and

innovators all under 19! Jointly produced

by Summer Company, Ryerson University

Basecamp, Y2 Entrepreneurship Labs,

and TAVES, eight startup companies

will present their businesses. Some are

generating revenue, some aren’t – but all

share a passion for solving problems.

Comet Warriors: The Comet Warriors

(http://cometsrobotics.blogspot.ca) are made

up of 8 girls from Ecole Catholique Cathedrale

in Kingston, plus Nick (he’s a boy but the

team loves him just the same). Their project

involves salvaging silicon sawdust produced

when manufacturing of wafers for solar cells.

Ctrl-Z: Ctrl-Z is a co-ed First Lego League

robotics team from Bayview Glen School in

Toronto, consisting of seven energetic students

from grade 5 to grade 9. Consumers sort

waste incorrectly, contaminating recycling

streams, resulting in valuable recyclables

being lost to landfill. The Smart Sort Trash Bin

uses a number of compartments. The lids

of each compartment are attached to servo

motors, which are connected to a computer.

Consumers simply say what they would like to

throw out, and the bin uses voice recognition to

open the correct bin. When the waste is thrown

into the bin, a fact about waste and recycling is

displayed on the screen to educate consumers.

(http://fllctrlz.github.io/trash_trek/index.html)

Good Club: Good Club is a clothing company

selling vintage jeans and t-shirts with one-of-a-

kind designs. Isabelle started the company to

pursue her passion in fine arts and business,

and she used the Summer Company program

to combine the two. Good Club is dedicated

to selling unique apparel that can’t be found in

mainstream stores.

Jabba Box: Aarti’s business is a health food

company that sells protein snacks in boxes to

those interested in living a healthier lifestyle.

Her product, the pro-bites box, consists of a set

number of protein bars with different flavours,

marketed and sold online through her social

media channels and website, as well as offline,

through farmers markets and pop-up stores.

Liqly: Anthony’s business is an alcohol

delivery service focusing on wines and beers.

An online platform that receives orders and

delivers them within a set service level time.

MG Solutions: Mathew’s business installs

and sells home hard drives. He markets his

company through community reach, supported

by offline and online marketing channels.

Sitto: SItto is a mobile app that connects

babysitters to parents. Parents discover

babysitters, match times and dates,

and pay electronically, addressing two

problems: limited access to babysitters and

inconvenient cash payments.

SpitStrips: Motivated by a number of

high-profile drunk-driving cases, a group of

high school students formed SpitStrips. Worried

by the increasing number of incidents involving

alcohol abuse, the team created the SpitStrip,

a small paper-based indicator capable of

detecting blood alcohol content from saliva.

After wetting the strip briefly, it is sealed in a

provided bag and quickly changes colour. The

colour can then be interpreted to aid decision-

making. (http://spitstrips.com)

Tiny Terras: Hannah started her business to

sell small decorative terrariums. Terrariums

are transparent glass homes for succulent

plants that are decorated with an assortment

of rocks, moss and, in Hannah’s case, cute

animal or dinosaur figurines. Upon Hannah’s

successful completion of the Summer

Company program at Ryerson University, she

decided to continue Tiny Terras as a home

business while she finishes grade 12.

evolving entertainment markets – Game,

Cinematic and Spectator VR.

VR’s immersive world offers game developers
