Research areas

My primarily research field is within embodied music cognition and my research interests relate to how musicians' control and interact with their instruments, as well as musical communication with sound and movements.

My background is in electrical engineering and musicology, and my work spans disciplines such as psychology, neuroscience, music performance and music acoustics. My research topics include:

• Motion capture and analysis of drumming
• Players' motor control and interaction with the instrument
• Production and perception of timing and tempo
• Capture and analysis of expressive movements
• Teaching and evaluating embodied interaction
• Musical rhythms as motivation
