Resumo


This paper presents a concise report on the research developed at the Laboratory of Audio and Music Technology at the EACH-USP. The laboratory was founded in 2011 targeting the areas of music technology, musical acoustics and bioacoustics, strengthening its scope in 2019 to the areas of sound and music computing and audio engineering. Six projects are presented herein, describing their application areas, goals, achievements and perspectives.

Palavras-chave: Artificial Intelligence, A-Life and Evolutionary Music Systems, Computer Music and Creative processes, Digital Sound Processing, Music Analysis and Synthesis, Music Information Retrieval, Real-time Interactive Systems, Software Systems and Languages for Sound and Music
