I am Ziyue Monica Piao, a Ph.D. student at
Input Devices and Music Interaction Lab, McGill University supervised by
Prof. Marcelo M. Wanderley and
Prof. Isabelle Cossette.
I am also a student member of CIRMMT and student coordinator of CIRMMT RA3: cognition, perception & movement.
My research interests center around New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME), with a particular focus on musical haptics and embodied interaction.
I aim to use sensor technology and haptics to facilitate a shared kinesthetic music experience among diverse individuals (I call it musical embodied empathy).
I have worked as a research assistant with
Prof. Gus Xia at Music X Lab, NYU Shanghai,
Prof. Roger Dannenberg at CMU,
and Prof. Felipe Verdugo at UdeM.
As a classically trained soprano, I enjoy performing opera and am also evolving into a augmented singer using wearable synthesizers.
My leisure time unfolds with engaging activities such as video games 🎮, photography 📷, delicacies 🍲, and yoga 🧘.
Explored muscle tension dysphonia and write an article to explain the dysphonia to public as the final project report of MUGT611.
