Dereks studies focused on the dynamic experience of open architectural spaces and included extensive field recording, analysis, and experimentation with 3D sound reproduction technology.

Through greater collaboration between sonic arts practice and acoustic design engineering, Dereks research examines dynamic aural experience in architectural spaces.
 
While located in the built environment, much of this research also has relevance to production of real-time and navigable audio virtual environments.
 
Dereks studies were supervised by Lawrence Harvey and Mark Burry at RMIT and his industry supervisor was Neil Woodger of Arup Australasia.
 
Derek is based in Melbourne and works as an Acoustic Consultant with Arup Acoustics. At Arup, Derek is leading frther development of SoundLab, Arups local facility for spatial auralisation.
