ABOUT ME
As part of my Ph.D research, I have proposed the luminance-texture-mass (LTM) framework for timbral semantics. I have since worked as a research associate on several European and nationally funded projects exploring computational creativity in music and the role of timbre in inducing musical tension. As of late, my interests have expanded toward cross-modal correspondences and multisensory perception, with a particular focus on sound. I am currently supported by a personal HFRI postdoctoral research grant entitled “Olfacoustics: Exploring how semantics shape sensory integration.
I have also founded Soundpear, whose mission is to enrich gustatory and olfactory experiences through sound and music pairing.
