Miguel Azguime: “New Op-Era” examples and their technological creation network

Date: 
Thu, 03/05/2020 - 1:00pm - 3:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Stage
Event Type: 
Guest Lecture
In the last 15 years I have created several stage works involving a network of technological means as well as a network of artistic disciplines. I call this type of work New Op-Era, indeed born from the current electronic culture and being the expression of hybrid intertextuality. I’ll take as examples my works “Salt Itinerary” (2006) and “A Laugh to Cry” (2013) where we’ll find within the creative process a network of multiple “inputs” and “outputs”, and where representation and operability are integrated in a new kind of creative transversality of textuality.

Bryan Pardo on Voice Assist and Cerberus

Date: 
Fri, 03/06/2020 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
In this talk, Bryan Pardo will describe two recent projects developed at Northwestern University’s Interactive Audio Lab: VoiceAssist and Cerberus. VoiceAssist is a system that helps inexperienced users produce high quality recordings by providing real-time visual feedback on audio quality. Cerberus is a single deep learning architecture that can both separate an audio recording of a musical mixture into constituent single-instrument recordings and transcribe these instruments into a human-readable format at the same time.

Vilbjørg Broch: Speaking in Mute Silence

Date: 
Tue, 03/10/2020 - 7:30pm - 8:30pm
Location: 
CCRMA Stage
Event Type: 
Concert
CCRMA Visiting Scholar Vilbjørg Broch presents a concert with computer generated immersive audio works and voice. Exploring 3D projections of higher dimensional algebraic and geometric structures for spatialisation and synthesis. Symmetry groups, nonperiodic order and the massa confusa. The concert will be woven together with text fragments from the collection of dreams which appear in C.G. Jung's Psychology and Alchemy.

Decoding Speech and Language Representations from the Brain

Date: 
Fri, 02/21/2020 - 10:30am - 12:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Seminar Room
Event Type: 
Hearing Seminar
Gopala Anumanchipalli will be talking about his work to measure and reconstruct speech signals from human neural activity. Gopala is uniquely situated to do this work, having graduated from Prof. Alan Black’s speech synthesis lab at CMU and he is now part of Prof. Eddie Chang’s excellent ECoG lab at UCSF. At UCSF there are patients who are undergoing surgery for epilepsy, and some of the patients allow recordings to be made as they listen and respond to sounds. One important question is how is speech represented in the brain. Gopala’s work uses deep neural networks (DNNs) to reconstruct speech sounds from human ECoG data. Speech from spikes.

DDSP: Differentiable Digital Signal Processing

Date: 
Tue, 02/18/2020 - 5:30pm - 7:00pm
Location: 
CCRMA Classroom [Knoll 217]
Event Type: 
DSP Seminar
Abstract: Classical DSP techniques have recently been overshadowed by deep learning for applications such as image recognition and audio generation. End-2-end learning has been key to this shift, enabling the optimization of high-dimensional nonlinear functions. However DSP techniques provide interpretability, modularity, and efficiency lacking from black-box deep networks. In this talk, I'll review the Differentiable Digital Signal Processing (DDSP) library, which enables direct integration of classic signal processing elements with deep learning methods.

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.
