Music
I take a transversal approach to music. My process begins by combining different elements that I feel work well together, and then removing anything unnecessary. These elements can include:- Algorithmic/generative parameter generation
- Field recording
- Sound design/manipulation
- Modular systems
- Direct sample composition/manipulation
- Data sonification
- Non audible natural phenomena (i.e. EMF, ...)
- Expressive use of noise
- Acoustic instruments used in non conventional way

I have always been drawn to music and to objects that produce unusual sounds.
Around the year 2000, I formed my first band with some friends, driven solely by the desire to make music together. At the same time, my curiosity for the technical aspects of sound production, such as the mechanics of musical instruments and recording techniques, kept growing.
My formal training in engineering strongly shaped the way I approach and conceive music production. Eventually, my academic studies and musical research converged, leading to a Ph.D. in Music Information Retrieval. This opened the door to the Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustique/Musique (IRCAM) in Paris, where I worked as a visiting researcher with the Analysis/Synthesis team. That experience profoundly influenced how I perceive and engage with the very nature of sound and noise.
Currently, my research focuses on data-driven synthesis techniques, sonification, generative music, and concrete music through real-time and delayed-time parameter manipulation. More recently, I have developed a passion for field recording, particularly when capturing ephemeral sound documents that are difficult to perceive with the naked ear.
