Introduction – about MTG and my stay
From 20/10/2009 to 29/10/2009, I was a guest researcher at Music Technology Group (MTG), Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona. The aim of my stay was to obtain feedback from my supervisor, professor Sergi Jordà, relatively to my research, and also to interact with the Tangible UI (Reactable related projects) and Freesound teams.
MTG of Universitat Pompeu Fabra is part of its Department of Information and Communication Technologies, and of its Audiovisual Institute. MTG “is specialized in sound and music computing. With more than 40 researchers coming from different and complementary disciplines, the MTG carries out research on topics such as sound processing and synthesis; music content description; interactive music systems; computational models of perceptual and music cognition; and the technologies related with music social networks”.
From 21/9/2009 to 1/10/2009, I’ll be teaching the Digital Interactive Audio 20h course @ Tallinn University, as part of the Interactive Media and Knowledge Environments master program.
The course will focus on audio theory and digital audio recording / editing (using Audacity).

I find Inception and Shutter Island similar in many ways. Both have good ideas and are very well directed, but become too standard and fail.September 03, 2010
Watched Inception last night. Really enjoyed the 25% or so of the movie with no shooting or bombing. The rest was too Matrix.September 03, 2010
