Studio designer John Storyk has quite a history. In 1969, the first studio he built was Electric Lady for guitarist Jimi Hendrix. Since that time, Storyk has had a hand in building over 500 studios for the likes of producer Rick Rubin, engineer Bob Margouleff and composer Carter Burwell.

Storyk, a TEC award winner, recently returned to the Conservatory and gave a three hour lecture to an overflow crowd of over 200 eager students. Storyk uses Powerpoint to lay out the basics of design and the physics of sound and then moves on to illustrations and photos of his best work. Students learned about the intricacies of design that only a seasoned professional could offer. Storyk's lecture is part of the ongoing guest lecture series that has brought such luminaries as Rupert Neve, Wes Dooley, Mike Sokol and Eveana Manley to the campus.
