Audio, signal processing, computer and stuff.

Welcome to my website, i am specialized in innovative project management in audio and IT (AES67 and alike). I currently work as a senior technologist at Merging Technologies. Before that I worked at DIGIGRAM S.A. as a project manager and head of research. Before that, I was in charge of the technology transfert of the ANR DReaM project. I was also a post-doc fellow for 18 months in this project, focused on musical source speration and mutli-track coding. My whole professionnal life is focused on audio, computer and science. I currently own more than fifteen scientific publications and 3 applied patents. You can browse this page by following each of my field of interest and you will also find some articles connecetd with those themes.

Senior Technologist at Merging Technologies

To day at Merging Technologies. I mainly do product and project management related to Audio Networking for Broadcast Applications. I also develop software in C++ and Javascript, backend and frontend. I love system architecture.

Photography

I own a small EOS rig with a reflex a some objectives. I like to do family photos but also to experiment with ligh and exposure times. It is a good way to experience some rules of physics while trying to get nice photos.

Music production

In 2004 I had the chance to meet Rodolphe Burger and its crew. He was looking for an assistant and I was looking for a job related to music production. I took the chance and eventually became assistant and technical manager of the Klein Leberau studio for little over one year. There, I maintained the hardware and software gear and assisted the producers that came to the studio while producing some music for local bands. I had the chance to work with Jacques Higelin, Alain Bashung and many other talented people that taught me much about music and life.

Today, however, for a lack of time and opportunity I do not have the occasion to continue producing music. I still keep in touch with the evolution of the domain, mainly through my participation to the AES conventions.

Signal processing and science

Science is also a huge part of my life : I use scientific methods everyday and I spent more than 10 years of my professionnal life serving public research on audio and speech signal processing.

My publication record contains more than 15 communications with 1 awarded paper at the AES Convention in April 2012. Of course, now that I left acamedic research, my publication record grows a lot slower, but I now have functions at Digigram that allow me to use my skills and network in the industry in order to improve both product developement technics and create innovative technologies.

Computer

Computer science is also one of my many skills. I love programmaing, setting up and running a system. I know most of the IT protocols related to media as I am an active contributor of the AES 67 standard. I also know many programming langages that I use for realtime audio processing or basic MVC applications.

Most of those computer science skills I use everyday at Digigram, but I like to keep myself up to date with small projets. Some of my achivements include a "tape delay" simulation for iPhone (as an Audio Unit) written in C++/Objective C and Swift 2 ; an AC3 decoder that I tested for my own Home Cinema (with delay correction and downmixing to 4.0) ; and this very own website built using javascript only.
