Senior🎓
Top SchoolFrederic Bevilacqua is Head Researcher leading the Sound Music Movement Interaction team at IRCAM with over 20 years of research and leadership experience bridging music, gesture and sensorimotor learning. He designs and evaluates gesture-based interaction systems and musical tangible interfaces, translating models of movement-sound coupling into applications for dance, pedagogy, gaming and rehabilitation. As principal investigator of projects like ELEMENT, LEGOS and INTERLUDE, he has secured ANR funding and produced societally impactful interactive musical experiences such as Urban Musical Game. Trained in physics and biomedical optics (PhD, EPFL) with formal music study at Berklee, he combines rigorous experimental methods with artistic practice to advance real-time, learnable gesture-sound systems. Notably, his work emphasizes interactive machine learning and sensori-motor feedback loops that make expressive movement both teachable and usable in everyday musical interaction.
