Occupations:

I was a visiting scholar at CCRMA
before I got a researcher position at the laboratory
 LMA ("Laboratoire de Mécanique et d'Acoustique"), CNRS ("Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique"), research team S2M ("Modélisation, Synthèse et Contrôle des Signaux Sonores et Musicaux"), in Marseille, France.

My research team is part of the european MOSART (Music Orchestration Systems in Algorithmic Research and Technology) IHP network and we have close  collaborations with the Acoustics Group at NTNU (Norges Teknisk Naturvitenskapelige Universitet) in Trondheim, Norway and with the Music Informatics Laboratory at DIKU in Copenhagen, Denmark.


My research projects are related to sound modeling, analysis-synthesis and control of musical
signals. I am also collaborating with the research group "Langage et Musique" at the
INPC ("Institut de Neurosciences Physiologiques et Comportementales") in Marseille to study the relations between
sound synthesis and cognitive neuroscience.
