TEAM

Culann mac Cabe

After completing a PhD in psychoacoustics in Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, Culann worked in Windmill Lane Recording Studios, with some of the biggest bands in the world, designing creative/productivity tools for day-to-day activities.

He then built and ran a number of hybrid Studio/R&D businesses, combining real-world, real time learning from commercial recording activities with technology development and consultancy to develop useful tools for ever-changing customer needs.

Culann has worked with audio/music throughout his career and Segotia is a return to roots: that 3D spatial psychoacoustics PhD from years ago now gets used in ways that he never imagined... and the best is yet to come!

Brendan Clavin

Brendan has spent his career in Silicon Valley, starting with Apple subsidiary Claris, to deliver the first Japanese version of Clarisworks. He went on to build Ariba's Globalization Development team, serving European and Asian customers.

He was Google's first Internationalization Engineering team hire, responsible for internationalisation of Google products worldwide. He went on to found his own company, Tethras, and has held senior engineering positions at Adobe, GoDaddy and Monsanto.

Brendan is passionate about delivering software solutions to a global audience. When he's not tackling the challenges Segotia throws his way, you can find him relaxing on the golf course, or maybe powering up a steep incline on his mountain bike.

Ian Davis

Originally from a Mechanical Engineering background, Ian completed a PhD in acoustics from Trinity College Dublin and has never looked back.

He has worked in audio and acoustics projects for over a decade with a particular emphasis on spatial audio, localisation and passive acoustic absorption technologies.

Ian enjoys the challenges of real-time audio coding and delivering high-quality experiences to customers. Outside of work, Ian enjoys road biking at the weekends and fumbling about on guitar when he can.
