& SPIRLZ (re-coding for Mac and PC) |

|
Compositional
algorithms frequently used by Roger
Reynolds. These algorithms are two different ways of fragmenting
and reordering an existing musical excerpt. The fragmenting and
reordering can be applied to the representation of the sound (the
music in its traditionally notated form) or to the sound itself
(sound files).
Sound Example: original
-- spirlzed -- splitzed

GranuLoop - Loop Music Variation Control |
 |
|
An algorithm that
explores the spectral relationships between beat elements within
a rhythmic music loop, with a controller designed to reorganize
elements across different loops. The purpose is to generate complex
variations of rhythmic loops with only a few original music materials.
Sound example: from
4 original loops loop-a, loop-b,
loop-c,loop-d,
you can real-time improvise something
like this. It is implemented in Pd,
and here is the patch.

Tinnnitus Research |

Tinnitus
remains one of the most difficult hearing disorders to treat, given
its numerous causes and many possible mechanisms. Among numerous
approaches, Tinnitus Habituation Therapy (THT), which attempts to
de-correlate the perception of tinnitus and the reaction (stress)
from the patient, is one that has achieved promising results. I
worked with F. Richard Moore and people from Cog
Science Dept on developing the interface
and methods for patients' tinnitus sound matching. The research
ends up with a master thesis. |

Karaoke Vocal or Instrument Removal |
 |
|
A new approach
and prototype system for karaoke vocal or instrument removal. The
algorithm estimates the singer's location and spatial transfer function
from a stereo recording, then mutes components in the recording
according to the estimated orientation. This algorithm turns to
be robust against reverb and spatial acoustics.
