New account, new

I am working on a PhD in music theory with a specialization in music cognition. I'm pretty new to the cognition stuff, with my formal training to date being very music focused (from flute and piano performance to composition to music theory). I am still at the dissertation proposal stage, but will be doing research related to auditory perception and auditory scene analysis.

I have another account in the fediverse on a more humanities focused server. I decided to try out a second instance, with a more science-based "Local" community. Server A is currently broken, so while the sysadmins there figure out how to fix it seemed like a good time for me to start exploring another instance. My username is the same for both. I may migrate over here, or I may keep using both. Time will tell.

By way of , I've been a recording engineer, a music technology specialist, a magazine writer and a digital designer.

I'm writing a book for music lovers, about how we get our music preferences, why our preferences differ, whether we can change them... that sort of thing.

I sing with Crouch End Festival Chorus.
