A €9 million project aiming to transform the news media and arts sectors through the creation of social extended reality experiences is to get underway at the Technological University of the Shannon (TUS) in Athlone this October. TRANSMIXR, which is funded by Horizon Europe and led by TUS, brings together researchers, design partners and media companies from 19 countries with the goal of creating human-centric tools for remote content production and consumption. €9M EU Project TRANSMIXR to build ‘Metaverse' Tools at TUS With the maturity of extended reality (XR) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, a unique window of opportunity for the European creative and cultural sector (CCS) exists to reimagine digital co-creation, interaction and engagement possibilities. The TRANSMIXR platform aims to provide (i) a distributed XR creation environment that supports remote collaboration practices, and (ii) an XR media experience environment for the delivery and consumption of evocative and immersive media experiences. Project coordinator Dr Niall Murray, who is based in TUS's Athlone campus and is an investigator in the SFI Adapt Centre, says TRANSMIXR will “ignite the immersive media sector by enabling new narrative visions”. “TRANSMIXR is a very exciting project that will create a suite of user-centric technologies to support the creation, consumption and understanding of new media experiences in distributed, collaborative and immersive ways. Underpinned by the convergence of AI and XR, the design of these new systems will be informed by and be evaluated with real end users,” Dr Murray explained. He continued, “A key strength of the TRANSMIXR consortium is its interdisciplinary nature, bringing complementary technical, methodological and domain expertise together to create impactful solutions for the creative and culture sectors.” Ground-breaking AI techniques for the understanding and processing of complex media content will enable the reuse of heterogeneous assets across immersive content delivery platforms. Using the Living Labs methodology, TRANSMIXR will develop and evaluate four pilots that bring the vision of future media experiences to life in four important CCS domains: news media, broadcasting, performing arts, and cultural heritage. Explaining further, Dr Conor Keighrey, an immersive technology researcher at TUS's Athlone campus, said, “In addition to our role as coordinator, TUS will further develop our research on extended reality (XR) for the TRANSMIXR distributed creation environments as well as working on the creation of human centric AI for XR audience understanding“. The TRANSMIXR project, which is expected to run for three years, will hold its kick-off meeting October 25 and 26 in Athlone, Ireland. The consortium brings together leading universities and research centres: Technological University of the Shannon (Ireland), Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI, Netherlands), Modul Technology GmbH (Austria), Trinity College Dublin (Ireland), Ethniko Kentro Erevnas Kai Technologikis Anaptyxis (CERTH, Greece), and Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (Switzerland) blend theoretical and applied AI and XR R&D expertise. Vrije Universiteit Brussel (Belgium) are leading the efforts with respect to user centred design. Furthermore, industry partners Intel Germany GmbH (Germany), VRAI (Ireland), Khora APS (Denmark), Immersion (France) and webLyzard technology (Austria) bring technical expertise and reflect the interests of commercial organisations. Finally, media practitioners from the different TRANSMIX CCS domains will ensure the developed technologies are grounded on real industry needs. The partners include Agence France-Presse (AFP, France), RTV Slovenia (Slovenia), Netherlands Institute for Sound & Vision (Netherlands), Baltic Film & Creative Tech Cluster (Lithuania), European Broadcasting Union (AISBL EBU-UER, Belgium), Sparknews (France) and Satore Studio (Portugal). The participating partners are c...

However, many fans have complained about the style of football his side played throughout the campaign.On this week's show, Niall Murray, Stefan Bienkowski, and Alex Marr discuss Mellon's time in charge at Tannadice, his side's issues, and where the Tangerines go from here.

Steven Gerrard and Callum Davidson have both had excellent seasons no matter what happens between now and the end of the campaign. The former has secured Rangers their 55th league title in spectacular fashion and the other has the chance to secure a truly historic cup double for St Johnstone.Both are undoubtedly deserving of the manager of the year award, but who deserves it more?

It seems like Eddie Howe's appointment as Celtic manager is a matter of 'when' rather than 'if'. The Englishman’s apparently in advanced talks with the club and looks set to replace Neil Lennon in the Celtic Park hot seat.Just how big a job is waiting for the former Bournemouth boss in Glasgow's East End and what does he have to do to improve things on the pitch?James Cairney, Euan Robertson and Niall Murray discuss exactly that on this week's flagship show.

The Connacht management team have again opted to shuffle their squad for Monday night’s Guinness PRO14 season finale against Scarlets in Llanelli (k/o 20:00). The side is captained by Paul Boyle in a back row that also features Conor Oliver and Abraham Papali’i. Gavin Thornbury and Niall Murray continue their second row partnership after impressive showings last weekend, and a front row of Jordan Duggan, Shane Delahunt and Jack Aungier completes the pack. Kieran Marmion is retained at scrum-half with Conor Fitzgerald alongside him, and there are no changes at 12, 13 or 14 which are filled by Tom Daly, Academy centre Sean O’Brien and winger Ben O’Donnell. Alex Wootton is named on the opposite wing with John Porch completing the side from full-back. Galway native Dylan Tierney-Martin could be in line to make his Connacht pro debut, with the hooker named among the replacements. William Davies gave the team details and he also spoke to Connacht Forwards Coach Jimmy Duffy.

- Some special songs from Niall at 50mins & 1hr40mins - This week the team is joined by the “cream” of Bangkok rock music Niall Jozef Murray from The Sangsom Massacre and Rock Shreller and Paul Lindsay from post punk-rockers Stay Awake. We kick off with the two Scotsman on a Sunday before the legendary Celtic Rangers clash. Straight off the bat we're discussing ancient Greek and Roman teaching practices, the inspiration for Sting's Don't Stand So Close to Me and Nabokov's teenage lust. We swiftly move onto A Serbian Movie, and Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal along with James Newman's new Fun City Saga book. From there it's downhill fast as we discuss the ancient tribal traditions of the Papua New Guinean semen-swallowers and the sad story of the Jewish oral circumcision tradition that went terribly wrong when the circumcisioner passed on oral Herpes to his baby client. Before the break Niall charms us with an acoustic Sangsom Massacre track and the boys discuss local music trends including the introduction of Shoe-gaze rock in the Thai music scene and how to break in to international events. From here we tip toe back onto the subject of improper adult / child relations and Jordan reveals a bombshell from his Laotian past. We close this Sunday show with Niall singing a beautiful cover of Morrissey's Every Day is like Sunday.

Jose Mourinho sure knows how to shape the agenda. Nobody is talking about Manchester United's poor Boxing Day draw at home to Burnely. Instead, the headlines have been dominated by his comments over spending. But is he right? Do Man Utd need to spend more if they are to stand any chance of catching Manchester City in seasons to come? If they do need to spend, where should they spend? Are we seeing Mourinho's decline as a world class manager before our very eyes? What happened to the 'Mourinho glaze'? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over and ask - does Pep v Jose end with the loser taking the PSG job?
With defeat to Manchester City on Saturday, Spurs have now won just two of their last six games. They sit in seventh place in the Premier League. So what has gone wrong? Not so long ago Mauricio Pochettino's side looked set to challenge near the top of the table. Now, they might be lucky merely to finish in the top four. What are the reasons behind their dramatic collapse in recent weeks? Do they need to make some additions to their squad in January? If so, who should they sign? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over.
So Manchester City are now 11 points clear at the top of the Premier League table. Is that it all over, then? Did Sunday's Manchester derby result effectively hand Pep Guardiola and his team the trophy for the 2017/18 season? In December? How does this Guardiola team differ to the ones he put together at Barcelona and Bayern Munich? Was is it that Man City do so well? Do they have any weaknesses? Any at all? They must have one? Surely? Is there any way that Manchester United can stop them? What about injuries? What about the Champions League? Might that prove to be a distraction? We're clutching at straws here. Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over. Stefan mentioned the Bundesliga. Because he always does.
Five games, five wins. 24 goals, just one conceded. It's fair to say that Paris Saint-Germain have lit up the Champions League group stages. In fact, the French side are the favourites to win the whole competition for many. So are PSG nailed-on Champions League winners in-waiting? Who can stop Unai Emery's side? What about Manchester City? Are we destined for a final between PSG and Barcelona, a showdown between Neymar and Lionel Messi? What is it they do so well? Where are there weaknesses? Is Dani Alves the best full back in football or the worst? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over.
This week on TheTwoPoint-One Cast the team discuss which clubs they believe are performing best in the Scottish Premiership.Niall Murray is joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Matthew Johnston. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
First, Roy Hodgson got the Crystal Palace job. Then David Moyes replaced Slaven Bilic at West ham. Now, it appears that Alan Pardew is destined to take over at West Brom, with Sam Allardyce strongly linked with the current vacancy at Everton. The Premier League continually looks to the same old names to fill the same old jobs. But why? Is there a reason for this? Is this the result of a safety first culture in the English top flight? Why are clubs so reluctant to look outside the box when looking for managers? After all, we're all obsessed with managers. It's a little peculiar that so little imagination is applied to hiring them. Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over. And disagree over Moyes.
Paul Pogba is back, and so, it would seem, are Manchester United. Indeed, Jose Mourinho's side were back at their free-flowing best against Newcastle on Saturday, putting on the kind of performance they have struggled to produce of late. So does Man Utd's season depend on Pogba and whether he can stay fit? Just how important is he to Mourinho's team and their chances of winning the Premier League title this season? What kind of player is the Frenchman, anyway? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over. And ponder... was £89 million actually a bargain?
It's the North London derby this weekend, with Spurs travelling to the Emirates to face Arsenal. It could be the most symbolic clash between the two sides in a generation. While Spurs are on an upward trajectory, Arsenal continue to slump. So is this finally the moment when the former bypasses the latter for good? Is it purely down to coaching or is there more at play here? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to determine just to what extent Arsene Wenger is to blame for the world's ills.
On this week's episode Niall Murray, Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven discuss Kilmarnock's recent resurgence under Steve Clarke.What exactly has Clarke changed since arriving in Ayrshire and is this a watershed moment for the Rugby Park club? See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Tales of Chelsea's demise were greatly exaggerated, with Antonio Conte's side claiming a deserved 1-0 win over Manchester United on Sunday. This was followed by the resignation of Michael Emenalo as the club's technical director. So given the turnover of managers, players and now directors at Chelsea, how do they remain so successful? They go against the grain, proving that stability isn't always the way to go. So how do they do it? Is Conte now in complete control at Stamford Bridge? Should be worried that he no longer has a buffer between himself and the board? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to discuss what this all means for Chelsea and how they keep winning games and lifting trophies.
Cavan captain Killian Clarke chats with Damien Donohoe after being named on the Irish international rules team heading down under. After Cavan Gaels qualify for the Ulster championship semi-final Jason O'Reilly and Niall Murray spoke with Mark Farrelly and we look ahead to Cavan NFL fixtures for 2018.
This week the team discuss who will replace Pedro Caixinha as Rangers manager.Is Derek McInnes a shoo-in for the Ibrox hotseat or will we see Stuart McCall or even Alan "Pardiola" Pardew take charge?Niall Murray was joined by Graham Ruthven and Stefan Bienkowski to talk it all over.

Manchester United claimed a big win over Spurs at the weekend, getting their title challenge back on track after a difficult week. Yet Jose Mourinho somehow managed to turn the headlines negative, aiming a barb at his own fans. So what is the Portuguese playing at? This isn't the first time he's done that this season, so what's the game plan? Is the pressure of a title race against Pep Guardiola and a rampant Manchester City side getting to him? Is it wise to provoke your own supporters in such a way? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it over. And yes, the famous 'Mourinho glaze' was mentioned. Avoid that donut at Krispy Kreme.
Pedro Caixinha's Rangers side suffered another big game loss. This time they succumbed to a 2-0 defeat to Motherwell in the League Cup semi-finals.With the Ibrox side struggling to win any big matches this season, is Caixinha's time in Glasgow over?Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over.

Kevin de Bruyne is in the form of his life, driving Manchester City to the top of the Premier League. The Belgian has become the face of Pep Guardiola's side at the Etihad Stadium, so is he the best in England right now? To what extent has he changed as a player under Guardiola? Is there anyone as important to their respective team as de Bruyne is to Man City? What might happen if he were to get injured? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it over. We're all just a little bit frightened of Man City right now. 29 goals in eight games. Astonishing, and much of that has been down to de Bruyne. Like, subscribe, follow... you know the drill!
On today's show Niall Murray, Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven discuss the new wave of talented, Scottish players, who should replace Gordon Strachan and whether we, as a country, are doing enough for our national team. Enjoy! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Finally, the defining duel we expected between Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho is materialising. Six games into the new Premier League season and Manchester City and Manchester United sit atop the table. So is this season shaping up to be a joust between the two men? Can anyone become a third force to break up the duopoly of the Manchester clubs? Who has the better squad - Jose or Pep? What might stop either of them from winning the Premier League title this season? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk all things Guardiola and Mourinho, also discussing donuts and asking the question you all want answered - what do horses drink?
This summer marked a turning point in the transfer market. Over £1.4 billion was spent in the Premier League, with Neymar going to Paris Saint-Germain for £200 million. How PSG are able to pay £200 million for one player, nobody is quite sure. So is it time to ditch Financial Fair Play, the regulations that are supposed to prevent reckless spending? Is this in any way sustainable? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it over. Has football once and for all lost it's damn mind?
It's been 10 years since James McFadden scored that famous goal in Paris. Does it feel like 10 years? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk about one of the greatest Scotland goals ever, and Dumfries. Yes, they spoke about Dumfries.

Arsene Wenger has revealed that he turned down the chance to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson back when the Scot first planned on retiring in 2002. So would the Frenchman have made a good Manchester United boss? Would it have prevented the decline he has suffered over the past few years? Would United have sacked him years ago? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk over the hypothetical prospect of Wenger as Man Utd manager. What a strange world that would have been.
Gordon Strachan announced his Scotland squad on Monday ahead of the 2018 World Cup qualification double header against Lithuania and Malta. It prompted one question - where is Callum McGregor?He wasn't the only notable omission, with Strachan continuing to pick his favourites. It was enough to make Stefan Bienkowski's head explode.Niall Murray was joined by Graham Ruthven and Stefan to talk through the squad and ask - could Bob Bradley do a Gerard Butler?

The new Premier League season is up and running and this weekend marks the first heavyweight class, with Spurs hosting the defending champions Chelsea at Wembley. Mauricio Pochettino's side finished second last season and are looking to make the next step in their development as Chelsea aim to keep their crown. So is this the Premier League's new power couple? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven. Stefan is still talking about spinning plates.
Arsene Wenger remains, but things are supposed to be different for Arsenal this season. They simply can't deliver more of the same. But how much has changed at the Emirates Stadium this summer? How much of an impact will Alexandre Lacazette? Should Wenger still be concerned by the soft centre at the club? What happens if they miss out on the top four for a second successive season? Would that be the end for Wenger at the club? Niall Murray was joined by Graham Ruthven and Stefan Bienkowski... who just wouldn't stop talking about spinning plates.
Pep Guardiola is a project manager, but this summer, he is required to overhaul Manchester City's entire team in the space of just a few weeks. Is it possible? Indeed, the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich has completely dismantled City's defence, signing three full backs at a cost of £140 million. Elsewhere, there are questions to be answered at centre back, in central midfield and up front. Is it realistic to expect that Man City will challenge for the Premier League title this season? Niall Murray was joined by Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven to talk it all over.
On the inaugural episode of TheTwoPointOne-cast Niall Murray, Stefan Bienkowski and Graham Ruthven discuss Aberdeen's plans to move to a new stadium. Is it the right decision? Will it keep Derek McInnes at the club? Will they finally fix the Pittodrie pies? All this and more discussed in this week's episode. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
