Biography
I completed my BSc(Hons) (1986-1989) and PhD (1990-1994) degrees in Computer Science at the University of Sydney, and also learnt Classical Guitar at the NSW Conservatorium of Music, obtaining the AMusA (1987) and LMusA (1988). I was a lecturer in Computer Science at Flinders University of South Australia from 1994 until mid 1999, and a research scientist in the Intelligent Music Processing Group at the Austrian Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence from 1999 to 2006. In December 2006 I joined QMUL's Centre for Digital Music as a lecturer. I was Programme Co-chair for the 8th International Conference on Music Information Retrieval (2007).
