The following announcement may be of particular interest to graduate
students seeking PhD oppportunities. Please share widely, as appropriate.
Virginia Tech Human-Centered Design (HCD), a unique individualized
interdisciplinary PhD program, in collaboration with the Linux Laptop
Orchestra (L2Ork) has a new fully funded graduate research assistantship
available. Supported as part of a grant from the Office of Naval Research,
the assistantship is looking for a graduate PhD-level student who will be
fully funded for up to 4 years (contingent on adequate progress) to work on
a project that combines knowledge in sound and music with that of
cybersecurity and K-12 education. Desired expertise includes:
- Solid C and JS programming skills
- Familiarity with emscripten and building Web apps
- Solid knowledge of acoustics, psychoacoustics, and of digital signal
processing using visual dataflow programming languages, such as Pd-L2Ork/Pd
or Max
While student will be required to work on the funded project, they will
also have an opportunity to develop facets of the said project into their
own dissertation, as well as explore their own unique research
trajectories. Students who may not possess all the desired expertise but
only a subset are also welcome to inquire and apply. Before applying,
students are strongly encouraged to contact me to ensure they may have the
right skillset.
Virginia Tech offers top tier research facilities in areas of spatial
sound, immersion, and telematics, including a $30M Moss Arts Center and the
Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology's Cube with its 140+
loudspeaker array, multi-projection surfaces, and a high resolution motion
capture system. The said space is supported by a constellation of other
labs, including the Perform studio with its 24.4 Genelec and Mocap system,
DISIS with its 24.2 system, Create Studio with access to cutting edge
fabrication tools, and many more. Most of the audio facilities on campus
are networked using the Dante protocol.
