Physical modeling for sound synthesis and musical composition with GENESIS-IV:

Ø  General modeling techniques and methods within GENESIS and CORDIS-ANIMA

Ø  Techniques and methods of sound spatialization in GENESIS

Ø  Techniques and methods of gesture emulation and force feedback in GENESIS Teacher : Claude Cadoz

Short description

GENESIS-IV is the very last version of the software environment developed by Claude Cadoz & Nicolas Castagné in ACROE, allowing to create interactively and with elegant ergonomics physical models according to the CORDIS-ANIMA formalisme (ACROE). Many features are dedicated to the specific level of sound creation. They are extended by composition procedures (integrated into complex models) which allow the creation of high level musical structures. In addition, still within the framework of CORDIS-ANIMA, GENESIS allows the development of specific models offering different modes of diffusion of multichannel sound tracks to any set of loudspeakers, for example with an Acousmonium or a Sound-Dome. And finally, several modeling techniques developed by C. Cadoz make it possible to emulate gestural force feedback devices when they are not accessible and thus to create and study “offline” models intended to be piloted “ in-line ” by such systems (using actually force feedback systems). The workshop will present these features and functionalities and allow them to be studied and tested through numerous exercises and examples.

Claude Cadoz

Engineer in electronics and computer science from the Grenoble Insitute of Technology, Doctor in electronics, Doctor qualified to supervise research in computer science (HDR).

In 1976, he founded ACROE with Annie Luciani and Jean-Loup Florens, to conduct interdisciplinary research in Computer Arts, Informatics and Human-Machine interaction technologies. He has developed pioneering research on force feedback devices, physical modeling and real-time simulation for music and multisensory computing. He developed the fundamental concepts of modular physical modeling for music, ranging from sound creation to musical composition. Author of numerous publications including a popular science book "Virtual Realities". (Flammarion, 1994), he trained more than 400 master's level students and supervised 35 doctoral theses. He is the author of 2 international patents on actuator-sensor technology for haptic devices and electro-dynamic piano. He has produced several works with ACROE technologies: ESQUISSES (with A. Luciani & J-L. Florens - 1993), pico..TERA (2001), Gaea (2007), Hélios (2015), Quetzalcoatl (2018 - 2019 - 2021).
