      Since 2008, I have been developing an open source platform for acoustical simulation. It's principle operating platform is the cad program Rhinoceros, although inroads have been made to other platforms such as Grasshopper and Unity. The program has since gained some notoriety and popularity among designers and engineers.I do lectures and workshops for Pachyderm for universities all over the world. Please get in touch if you would like a demonstration for your institution.
