(Redirected from Frédéric Bevilacqua)

Head of the Real Time Musical Interaction team at IRCAM - Centre Pompidou. The team is part of the joint research lab Science & Technology for Music and Sound - CNRS UMR 9912 -Université Pierre et Marie CURIE

Contents

The long term goal of my research concerns the understanding of the interaction between gestures and sound processes, and the development of new paradigms for music performance.

Research Interests
gesture-sound interaction, gesture modeling
musical tangible interfaces, gesture capture systems
sensori-motor learning using sound feedback.

Coordinator of the LEGOS
Evaluation of the sensorimotor learning in gesture-sound interactive systems
Ircam and University Paris Descartes, funded by ANR (French National Agency for Research).

Co-superviser of the PhD students:
Sarah Fdili Alaoui (also LIMSI CNRS laboratory UPR 3251), Movement Qualities and Physical Model Control
Bruno Zamborlin (also Goldsmiths, University of London), Interactive Machine Learning
Jules Françoise, Hierarchical Mapping between Gesture and Sound

Current artistic collaborations with Thierry De Mey, Mari Kimura, Richard Siegal - The Bakery

In a previous life (before 2004), I've conducted research on biomedical optics for ten years at EPFL-Switzerland and University of California Irvine-USA (yet another very interdisciplinary field...)

English

Frédéric Bevilacqua is the head of the Real Time Musical Interactions team at IRCAM - Institute for Music/AcousticResearch and Coordination in Paris. His research concerns the understanding of the interaction between gestures and sound processes, and the development of gesture-based musical interaction systems. He holds a master degree in physics (1991) and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Optics (1998) from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Swiss Federal Institute of Technolgy in Lausanne). He also studied music at the Berklee College of Music in Boston (1992–1993) and has participated in different music and media arts projects. From 1999 to 2003 he conducted various research projects at the Beckman Laser Institute at the University of California Irvine. He joined IRCAM in October 2003 as researcher on gesture analysis for music and performing arts.
