Self-introduction

After studying musicology in the master course of the Graduate School of Letters, I started to study music visualization in Fujishiro laboratory from April 2016 and finished the Ph.D. course in March 2019.  I also studied at Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustique/Musique (IRCAM) in Paris from September 2017 to February 2018. Currently, I am working for a company and also belong to this laboratory as a visiting researcher.
