Ubuntu Summit 2023

UbuntuSummit2023

I am currently attending the Ubuntu Summit 2023 in Riga, Latvia. This is the first time I have deliberately attended an Ubuntu event. Back in 2013, I accidentally walked through what I believe was the last Ubuntu Developers Summit in Copenhagen, when I was showing some friends around Bella Sky in Copenhagen.

This time I was asked by Erich Eickmeyer if I would like to join him as a member of the Ubuntu Studio team. It has been fantastic to meet him and Eylul Dogruel from the Ubuntu Studio team. It was also fantastic to meet or see in person other members of the Linux Audio community, and other Ubuntu and Canonical people that have helped me with my Ubuntu contributions along the way.

Here are the talks I attended and meetings I had related to Ubuntu Studio:

50 things you did not know you could do with Ardour , Dr Robin Gareus (Ardour, Linux Audio)
Making a standalone effects pedal system based on embed Linux, Filipe Coelho
Live Mixing with PipeWire and Ardour/Harrison Mixbus, Erich Eickmeyer (Ubuntu / Ubuntu Studio)
Art and ownership – the confusing problem of owning a visual idea, Eylul Dogruel (Ubuntu Studio)
Ubuntu Flavour Sync meeting, Aaron Prisk (Canonical), Ana Sereijo (Canonical), Daniel Bungert (Canonical), Mr Mauro Gaspari (Canonical), Michael Hudson-Doyle (Canonical), Oliver Smith (Canonical), Mr Tim Holmes-Mitra (Canonical)
I believe talks will be uploaded onto You Tube at some point, so look out for them!
