Project Bar-B-Q is an intense conference held annually in October at a resort in the central Texas hill country.

The goal of Project Bar-B-Q is

INFLUENCING AUDIO HARDWARE & SOFTWARE
OVER THE NEXT 5 YEARS

To this end, three to five groups are formed, each consisting of hardware developers, software developers, audio engineers, composers, and tech executives. Each group tackles a problem that has been identified as one of the industry's most important, spending two days of facilitated brainstorming to formulate its best shot at a solution. The result of this work is the annual BBQ report.

General categories of discussion are:

• Predicting and/or Directing the Future of Audio on Mobile Devices, the Web, Consoles, Computers, and Any Other Technology Platform
• Exploring and Influencing Business Models for IP, Distribution, and Other Concerns
• Exploring and Influencing Hardware Design
• Software, Tools, and Architecture: Innovations and Standardization
• Audio Evangelism and Empowerment of the Audio Community
• Anything Else Relating to Audio Technology Brought Forward by the Attendees
