Had a wonderful summer working with @justin_salamon and @urinieto as an intern in the Audio AI Lab @AdobeResearch in San Francisco! If any fellow PhDs would like to know more about my experience and how to apply, drop me a message!

@cyrusasfa Did use Reaper for batch processing in the past

@umpedronosapato @IEEE_WASPAA Sounds like a It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode

[Sebastian Löbbers @9SFRL2]

@cyrusasfa Opportunity for you to build the next artist led platform 😉

[Sebastian Löbbers @9SFRL2]

I recently released an EP that I recorded during the pandemic and it will air today 5pm U.K. time on EastBlenders @threadsradio hosted by the amazing @Lia_Mice. Tune in 🎶 or checkout the EP on Spotify https://t.co/esNYXuzYSl

Super happy that my work “SketchSynth: a browser-based sketching interface for sound control” was voted best demo at #NIME2023 ✍️💻🎶 read the paper here https://t.co/go0Blywoal

Today I will perform The Sabotaging Piano at @nime2023 - a piece by my PhD colleague Teo Dannemann who built a system that forces improvisers to move away from their usual playing patterns. Come along! 🎹💻

My takeaways from #chi2023:
- it‘s large
- loads of interesting and prestigious people, but everyone just cooks with water 😉
- @medialab knows how to party

Really happy to have experienced it with my colleagues from @QMUL_MAT and @CDT_AI_Music

@elepetrovs Absolutely agree! I often have to clarify to non-academics that being a PhD “student” is nothing like being a undergraduate or even Master student.

great start of day 2 at @EvostarConf with a talk by @cardinale_sara about generative event-based soundtrack production 🤘

This looks like an interesting opportunity for people interested in creative or accessible coding. https://t.co/YzK9f9dHMv

I'd like to invite all of you interested in #sleep to join me for this in-person workshop on 10 March in London and support me with my PhD research. An academic publication with co-authorship might be possible as an outcome. Please sign up via https://t.co/Ux0yI93C2N

[Sebastian Löbbers @9SFRL2]

Happy to announce that our paper "SketchSynth: cross-modal control of sound synthesis" has been accepted to @EvostarConf 2023! Great way to start my last PhD year at @QMUL_MAT 🎓

[Saurjya Sarkar @saurjyasarkar]

We are happy to announce the release of "EnsembleSet: A new high-quality synthesized dataset for chamber ensemble separation" at @ISMIRConf 🎶🎻🎶 work done at @c4dm @CDT_AI_Music w/ @emmanouilb and @markbsandler

@benhayesmusic So… what are they? I need to know!

[Sebastian Löbbers @9SFRL2]

I believe that “informal” events like this are crucial to a research community and it’s great that our research groups support us in organising them ☺️

[Sebastian Löbbers @9SFRL2]

Last Thursday we ran the 3rd iteration of Work in Progress with amazing works from members of @QMUL_MAT, @CDT_AI_Music and @c4dm that being together cutting edge technology and live music

[Sebastian Löbbers @9SFRL2]

We started this event series to give PHDs and Master students the opportunity to present work that is unfinished and/or does not fit into an academic outlet. But it also turned out to be a great way to find out about the research interests of our colleagues!
