Bio:

Christian Frisson was born in Thionville, France, in 1982. He received his M. Eng. degree from Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Ingénieurs du Mans (ENSIM) at Université du Maine, France, in 2005, where he studied Acoustics and Metrology (the Science of Sensors). He graduated a M. Sc. entitled "Cognition, Creation and Learning Engineering (IC2A)", specialization in "Art, Science, Technology (AST)" from Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble (INPG) and the Association for the Creation and Research on Expression Tools (ACROE), France, in 2006. In October 2006, he joined the Communication and Remote Sensing Lab (TELE) of Université catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain), Belgium, and started his PhD with Prof. Benoit Macq in 2008. From September 2010 on, he joined the Circuit Theory and Signal Processing Lab (TCTS) lab from University of Mons (UMons), to pursue his PhD studies with Professors Thierry Dutoit (UMons/TCTS) and Jean Vanderdonckt (UCLouvain-ISYS). He has been a fulltime contributor to the numediart Reseach Program on Digital Art Technologies since 2008.

Research:

My current purpose is to design user interfaces (gestural "handed" input and visualization) for the navigation in multimedia content (audio+video) organized by similarity. Here follows a selection of my collaborated contributions within numediart projects featuring the MediaCycle framework for multimedia content organization by similarity (2008-present):

info: the LoopJam collaborative musical map on the dance floor, participants tracked by a Kinect camera composing music with loops synchronized by tempo and sorted by timbre

collaboration with: Stéphane Dupont, Julien Leroy, Alexis Moinet, Thierry Ravet, Xavier Siebert

presented at:

  • the Arts & Sciences exhibition at the Seneffe Estate, Belgium, May 21-22 2011
  • Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles (CWB) in Paris, France, Sept. 22 - Oct. 23 2011
  • the 2011 Networked & Electronic Media (NEM) Summit in Torino, Italy, Sept. 27-29 2011
  • the Intl. Symp. on Electronic Art (ISEA 2011) Istanbul, Turkey, Sept. 14-21 2011 [HTML]

video from: numediart project #14 LoopJam started in April 2011

info: the DeviceCycle puredata toolbox (v0.1 ) for not reinventing the jog wheel, that we use for the control of MediaCycle apps with low-cost off-the-shelf HID devices through Open Sound Control (OSC)

collaboration with: Stéphane Dupont, Xavier Siebert, Damien Tardieu

presented at:

  • the 2010 Intl. Conf. on New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME) []
  • Rencontres Doctorales de la Conf. Fr. ACM sur l'Interaction Homme-Machine (IHM'10) []

video from: numediart project #08.3 MultiMediaCycle between October-December 2010

info: the AudioGarden application (blog) for compositing sounds, by blending rhythmic patterns and sonic textures

collaboration with: Cécile Picard-Limpens, Damien Tardieu

presented at: the ACM AudioMostly 2010 conference

video from: numediart project #10.2 AudioGarden between April-June 2010

info: early intra-track interactive visualization using the Processing Development Environment

collaboration with: Laurent Couvreur

video from: numediart project #02.3 AudioThumbnailing between April-June 2008

info: simple waveform skimming objects for puredata/GEM

collaboration with: Laurent Couvreur, Alexis Moinet

video from: numediart project #01.2 AudioSkimming between January-March 2008

Stay tuned for more! Until then "DiskHover" () some "unclassifiable" music using Archipel from La Médiathèque!
