Research Symposium honouring Anders Friberg
Time: Fri 2018-06-08 13.15 - 17.00
Location: Room Fantum, Lindstedtsvägen 24 level 5, KTH main campus
Professor Anders Friberg is a globally respected researcher in the science of music performance and music informatics. He came to the Department of Speech, Music and Hearing in 1983 to do his degree project for civilingenjör, and has been working here to the present day, with brief excursions to other institutions. Anders Friberg has made major contributions to numerous topics, such as polyphonic synthesis, rules for music performance, and the representation of emotions in music, music and gestures. More recently, he has studied and developed the automatic recognition of musical structure and content, in other words, machines that listen to music.
On the occasion of Anders Friberg’s 60th birthday, we are proud to present a symposium in his honour. With a full afternoon of presentations by academic peers from near and far, we will celebrate his work, and enjoy a formidable exchange of ideas. The symposium is open to all – welcome!
