Algorithmic Design and Construction of Experimental Music Circuits, with Simone Pappalardo
XX CIM: Rome
On 20-22 October 2014, I’ll be in Rome for the XX CIM – Colloquio di Informatica Musicale, organised by AIMI. I’ll present three papers:
- PERMUTATION SYNTHESIS: Giacomo Valenti, Andrea Valle, Antonio Servetti
- SOUNDSCAPEGENERATOR: SOUNDSCAPE MODELLING AND SIMULATION: Marinos Koutsomichalis, Andrea Valle
- THE GATE MODULATOR. AN EXPERIMENT IN DIGITALLY-CONTROLLED ANALOG SYNTHESIS: Andrea Valle, Simone Pappalardo
And we’ll also present the new book I co-edited with Stefano Bassanese: “Enore Zaffiri. Saggi e materiali”.
See AIMI site for proceedings and Zaffiri page.

SoDA at SMC|ICMC 14
We will present a talk at SMC|ICMC joint conference about our project SoDA – Sound Design Accelerator, that is aimed at the automatic generation of soundscape from an annotated sound library as an aid to sound designer. The project is funded by Regione Piemonte on its Multimedia innovation programme. SoDA is lead by me at CIRMA, and includes Machiavelli, Celi, ZerodB. Marinos Koutsomichalis will present the talk. Special thanks also to my partner Paolo Armao.

24/05/13 Randomw Walks: Xenakis and Varèse
Our spatialization of Xenakis’ Concret PH and Varèse’s Poème électronique, as reconstructed by the VEP Project, will be played on an 8-chan ring for the “Random Walks: Music of Xenakis and beyond” event, organised by The Fields Institute, together with the Perimeter Institute and the Institute for Quantum Computing in Waterloo, Canada.
Humbly proud to be there with my work on two so relevant music pieces.
