Yu Chia Kuo

I am a master's student working under Ichiro Fujinaga in the Music Technology area of the Schulich School of Music, McGill University. My research interests are in Music Information Retrieval and Music Composition. Simultaneously, I work on electronic music and multi-disciplinary projects as a composer, exploring new interpretations with multimedia content. My research focuses on interdisciplinary music research, analysis and modeling of multi-track music, and expressive synthesis for string performance.
