I am working as a Research Assistant on the OMRAS2 project in the Centre for Digital Music at Queen Mary in London.
I'm particularly interested by the Semantic Web side of the project, which is where I've been spending my time so far. There's some really cool stuff going on. See my Digital Music page for more info on what I've been doing.
Work on SoundBite also continues - we recently released the first version for Windows, and we hope to soon release a version including rhythm analysis, courtesy of Kurt.
I'm living in Leicester, commuting to London every week or two as necessary.
Software development for the SoundBite project, creating an automatic playlist creation tool based on musical content rather than social networking.
Sept 2005 - Sept 2006Studied for an MSc in Digital Music Processing at Queen Mary, University of London.
My master's thesis was on vocal melody transcription.
Spent a month driving around central Europe with three friends in my Volkswagen camper van
June 2005Graduated from Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge in 2005 with a BA in Computer Science.
My final year project was on learning and recognition of tunes played on the harmonica. This was arguably just a sneaky way to do more harmonica practice when I should have been studying.
