Dr. Fabio Paolizzo investigates and teaches new methods and forms of expression for human and computational music creativity.
In 2015, Paolizzo was awarded a three-year Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie Global Fellowship for work on the automatic recognition and induction of emotions through motion capture and artificial intelligence, which culminated in the creation of a largest multimodal dataset for both electroacoustic music and dance (Musical-Moods). An interdisciplinary scholar, his articles have been published in journals ranging from Medical Engineering & Physics to Journal of New Music Research. As a musical artist, his creative work encompasses composition, improvisation, and interaction with the autonomous musical agent VIVO, which he developed in 2005. VIVO has served as a platform for collaborating with other artists, such as Nicole Mitchell and Giancarlo Schiaffini; has been adopted by research and industry enterprises; and is in permanent exhibit at the Accademia Nazionale di San Luca.
