Research
Research Interests
Sound and music are omnipresent parts of our media culture. Today, creative work with them is enriched in many ways and made more productive by digital tools and data formats. Digital media enable completely new ways of accessing sound and music, even for non-experts. There is a lot of innovative potential in the overarching field of music informatics, which we explore while interfacing with other disciplines such as human-technology interaction, musicology, and application domains such as the games industry, organ building, and museum technology.
