Profile
For the past fifteen years, I have been acting as an audio engineer, music producer, composer, performer and educator in many different contexts, covering a wide array of musical genres. My main interest and goal have been to improve musical expression and expand the sonic palette of my own and other’s work through sound manipulation and audio processing. Expanding on this idea, I am currently interested in the research of music creation tools based on Music Information Retrieval techniques, and the development of new controllers to perform with.
