Summary
Recorded March 6, 2026 In this episode of Off the Rails, the panel opens with a conversation about AV Trust and what it means for cybersecurity, standards, and the growing expectation that AV systems have to be treated like serious networked technology, not mysterious boxes that somehow get a pass. Join us on March 20 when we'll have the whole team from AV Trust on the show to talk network security. From there, the crew turns to a much deeper discussion on design drawings and schematics. Where different designers start, how they think through a system, what belongs on a drawing, and how documentation shifts from rough concept to something another person can actually build, wire, label, and support. The back half turns into a familiar higher ed therapy session about the campus departments that try to "help" by buying their own gear, setting things up themselves, and only calling AV once the whole thing has gone sideways. So you get cybersecurity, design philosophy, workflow nerdery, and just enough support-tragedy storytelling to make the whole thing feel painfully relatable in the best AVSF way.
