Žibuoklė Martinaitytė: In Search of Lost Beauty...

Date: 
Fri, 10/25/2019 - 7:30pm - 8:30pm
Location: 
CCRMA Stage
Event Type: 
Concert
“In Search of Lost Beauty…” (2016) is a sequence of audiovisual novellas for violin, cello, piano, electronics and video on the elusive subject of beauty. Here the experience of time is slowed down as to transport us into an alternate dimension where the commonly apprehended reality is inverted into the otherworldly mystique of reflections and shadows. The amplitude of this ephemeral search for beauty encompasses phenomena found in nature, everyday life and art. The piece consists of 10 sections, which are woven into one structural entity of suggestive coherence.

ENS EKT

Date: 
Thu, 10/17/2019 - 7:30pm - 8:30pm
Location: 
CCRMA Stage
Event Type: 
Concert
ENS EKT features the experimental musical inventions of Paul Stapleton (Californian born, Belfast-based) placed in dialogue with the circular breathed multiphonics and harmonic textures of Simon Rose (English born, Berlin-based) and the resonant gestural and spectrally focused playing of Adam Pultz Melbye (Danish born, Berlin-based). The group explores emergent timbral, dynamic and social musical structures through improvisation. Having worked together more frequently in duo settings (see below), the trio configuration offers an opportunity to explore new modes of interactions in part facilitated by purpose built technologies that intertwine metallic, wooden and electronic resonances in real time.

Auditory Separation of a Conversation from Background via Attentional Gating

Date: 
Fri, 10/11/2019 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
The latest speech enhancement work has the potential to dramatically change the way we hear the world around us. This new work has dramatically improved the quality and latency of these algorithms, and it has the potential to change the way we hear the world around us, whether we have normal hearing or need assistance.  These new systems build highly sophisticated models of speech, and can pick out the speech signal from the noise. Oh, yes.

Alain de Cheveigne on cleaning up brain data for analysis and decoding

Date: 
Fri, 10/04/2019 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
Brain signals as measured by EEG, MEG or even ECoG are inherently noisy.  Not only are there only a few dozen sensors to measure billions of different neural sources, the electrical environment can change during an experiment. One would like techniques that can pull the signal out of the noise.  This can be done with smart forms of noise control, de-trending and signal averaging.
 
Alain de Cheveigne will be at CCRMA on Friday to discuss a panoply of techniques to enable you to find the signals you care about.

Hearables Will Monitor Your Brain and Body to Augment Your Life, by Poppy Crum

Poppy Crum recently published a fascinating article in IEEE's magazine Spectrum on the potential future of wearables/hearables.

Quote from the article:

ARTFUL DESIGN — A new (comic) book by Ge Wang!


What is the nature of design, and the meaning it holds in human life? What does it mean to design well -- to design ethically? How can the shaping of technology reflect our values as human beings?  These are the questions addressed in Ge Wang's new book, ARTFUL DESIGN (check it out: https://artful.design/).

Technology that Knows What You're Feeling: TED2018 Talk Featuring Dr. Poppy Crum

Very interesting talk by Poppy Crum:

What happens when technology knows more about us than we do? Poppy Crum studies how we express emotions -- and she suggests the end of the poker face is near, as new tech makes it easy to see the signals that give away how we're feeling. In a talk and demo, she shows how "empathetic technology" can read physical signals like body temperature and the chemical composition of our breath to inform on our emotional state. For better or for worse. "If we recognize the power of becoming technological empaths, we get this opportunity where technology can help us bridge the emotional and cognitive divide," Crum says.
