Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDario Sanfilippo is a researcher and audio programmer with a PhD in Computer Music from the University of Edinburgh and eight years of professional experience exploring AI and artificial life for new music. He combines academic rigor with hands-on R&D at Image-Line (FL Studio), developing complex adaptive audio feedback networks for both human-machine performances and autonomous systems. As a composer and performer since 2006, he deploys principles like autopoiesis, evolvability and radical constructivism to create cybernetic, real-time musical interactions. His background includes teaching DSP and algorithmic composition and industry roles at AAPU and n-Track, bridging research and product development. Based in Vienna, he specializes in compact, emergent systems—recent work even experiments with 1-bit audio environments—to squeeze creativity from minimal resources. This mix of performance practice, pedagogy, and product-focused R&D gives him a rare perspective on turning theoretical ALife ideas into playable, studio-ready tools.
