Introduction
I am a PhD student and Research Engineer deeply engaged in advancing the field of deep learning within music. My academic research is conducted at IRCAM where I am part of the ACIDS research group under the Analysis Synthesis Team. Learn more about my work here.
Alongside my research, I teach courses on Ableton and Pure Data for the ATIAM Master’s program. You can explore some of the innovative projects by my students on SoundCloud.
Additionally, I have taken on the role of Research Engineer at Native Instruments within the Audio Research Team, focusing on applying deep learning techniques to develop cutting-edge music technology solutions.
Research Focus
My research revolves around the following key areas:
-
Real-time Neural Audio Synthesis: Exploring the potentials of deep generative models for real-time audio synthesis, my aim is to create innovative and expressive methods that harmoniously blend human creativity with deep generation.
-
Interactive Musical Instruments with Model Controls: I am committed to developing interactive musical instruments that incorporate model controls powered by artificial intelligence. This approach empowers musicians to explore novel sonic landscapes, expanding the horizons of musical creativity.
-
Interface Design & Embedding into Hardware Synthesizers: My focus lies in user-friendly interface design and seamless integration of technology into hardware synthesizers. This enhances the musician’s experience and strengthens the musical process.
-
Reflective Study on AI’s Artistic Applications and Interviews with Artists: Through reflective exploration, I investigate the artistic applications of artificial intelligence in music. Engaging in insightful interviews with talented artists, I seek to understand the impact of technology on artistic expression.
