About me

My main research interests are expressive music performance, emotion in sound and music performance, sound in interaction, robot sound design, and sonification.

I am working as Professor of Media Technology at the Division of Media Technology and Interaction Design (MID), School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS), since 2014, and I am heading the Sound and Music Computing group.

Since January 2016, I am Director of Studies (Programansvarig) for the Degree Programme in Media Technology.

Since June 2019, I am Director of NAVET, a new KTH center for research in art, technology and design.

I am member of the steering committee of the Sound and Music Computing Network.

Before 2014, I was doing research at Division of Speech Music ands Hearing (TMH)since August 1996, thanks to a one-year TMR-Marie Curie fellowship from the European Union. In 2000 I completed a PhD in Music Acoustics at KTH, with a thesis on music performance, Virtual Virtuosity - Studies in automatic music performance.
Before coming to TMH, I was research engineer at Centro di Sonologia Computazionale (CSC) of Padova University, Italy, for 5 years.
