He has a Bachelor in Applied Computational Mathematics (1983) and in Composition and Conducting (1987) and a MPhil in Applied Mathematics (1988) both by Unicamp. Developed his PhD at the University of Nottingham (1993) on Musical Composition. He is currently Tenured Professor of the Arts Institute of Unicamp and Coordinator of the Interdisciplinary Nucleus for Sound Studies (NICS). Composer and mathematician, studies interactions between Art and Technology in musical creation, computer music and cognitive sciences. He works on the graduate program in Music within frameworks of Creative Processes and Theoretical Foundations of Music and Technology. His publications focus mainly the following topics: music composition, sound synthesis, sound self-organization and creativity, interactive environments for composition, mathematical models and evolutionary computation applied to sound processes. His artistic production is associated with instrumental music, electroacoustic, multimedia works for dance and sound installations. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

This project aims to provide a novel contribution and new insights in the field of motor learning through the use of musical and multimodal interactive technology. The proposed study will investigate how audiovisual-motor learning generates and strengthens new sensorimotor maps based on crossmodal encoding, in order to test the efficacy of the prototype e-mocomu developed at NICS in 2013,…
The objectives of this research project are to analyze the piece Khorwa-Myalwa, for bass flute and electronics, by composer Mikhail Malt; as well as to analyze the creative processes involved in its composition. The composition of the piece had as a poetic starting point: the reading of Tibetan text Longchen Nyingtik Ngöndro, that served as structural support for the electronic tape, thro…
The present research project focuses on musical analysis using audio descriptors based on psychoacoustic models. This approach is justified in this context, because it proposes to study composers who have cultivated an approach with perceptive phenomena in their musical discourse, as in the case of Karlheinz Stockhausen and his conceptions of Points, Groups and Masses; György Ligeti and h…
While the development of assisted-orchestration software has begun to provide the composer several practical tools, the literature has made very few proposals that provide a method to analyze the use of orchestra (or any other combination of multiple instrumental or sonic resources) as a way to design the musical form, and to what extent that composing decisions impact upon its perception…

This project presents an internship proposal for the PRISM Laboratory at Aix-Marseille Université, Marseille, France. The main goal of this project is to accomplish an important step of our research by implementing psychoacoustic descriptors to consolidate the analytical methodology to sound mass music we have developed in our doctoral study. We have already discussed our proposal with Pr…
In this project, it is presented a research proposal to be developed in Input Devices and Music Interaction Laboratory (IDMIL) - Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Music Media and Technology - headed by Professor Marcelo Wanderley, PhD, at McGill University - Canada. The work plan for this internship aims to use aspects, processes and results of the artistic production from recitals…
This project aims to carry out a research internship at IRCAM between October 1st 2015 and September 30th 2016 under the guidance of Prof. Mikhail Malt and in collaboration with the PDS team (Perception et Design Sonores, headed by Prof. Patrick Susini) and the RepMus team (Représentations Musicales, headed by Prof. Gérard Assayag).Our Post-doctorate project, already approved by FAPESP, d…
We propose research activities in the Center of Autonomous Systems and NeuroRobotics (NRAS), Department of Technology, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain. The project will be developed at Synthetic Perceptive, Emotive and Cognitive Systems (SPECS) Laboratory under supervision of Prof. Dr. Paul Verschure, director of NRAS and member of ICREA/Barcelona. The objectives are: 1) implem…
