Job description

For the STW project 'Exploration and training of music performance skills by means of adaptive monitoring and visual feedback' we are looking for someone who can both do scientific programming and work with music hard and software.Learning to perform music is about much more than just playing the right notes. After acquiring this basic skill, in many subsequent years of intensive teaching and practice the complex skill of musical expression and style is developed. As important as choosing a musical interpretation is the amount of motor control needed for achieving the chosen expressive timing, dynamics, intonation, articulation, etc. These motor skills are hard to learn. In this project a system will be developed that monitors a student during practice and provides feedback on the success of imitation in an integrated visual way. This helps in exploring through the space of possible performances. How the method helps in learning to control the instrument will be evaluated in several experiments. More information is available on www.nici.ru.nl/mmm or via dr. P. Desain (desain@nici.ru.nl).

Requirements
The candidate should have a degree comparable to a Bachelors degree in Music Technology, Computer Science or a related discipline. Experience with real-time MIDI programming is required, as is an affinity with artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques.

Good communication skills and teamwork skills are essential.

Organization
The project will be carried out at the Nijmegen Institute for Cognition and Information (NICI) in the Faculty of Social Sciences of the Radboud University Nijmegen. On www.nici.ru.nl/mmm more information is available.
