One of creative computing’sleading experts, Professor Mick Grierson started Goldsmiths Digital and is now Research Lead at University of the Arts London’s Creative Computing Lab. His research explores new approaches to the creation of sounds, images, video and interactions through signal processing, machine learning, and information retrieval techniques. Over the past 18 months, Grierson has led a team of researchers from Goldsmiths and the Creative Computing Institute to create an interactive installation for the 20th anniversary of Massive Attack’s Mezzanine. Based on six years of research in the application of deep learning to audio synthesis, Grierson keynote at the Instrumental Shifts Symposium will detail the project and describe the technological challenges of producing CD quality output from neural networks.
