In a group of two other students, we created a tool that enables musicians and producers to collaborate on projects in the REAPER Digital Audio Workstation using Git, a Version Control System. This project consisted of the following elements:

• Extensive background research into the space of collaborative music production
• A Python library to parse and detect the differences in REAPER project files for displaying a “diff” view
• A plugin in REAPER that adds a user interface for Version Control commands (commit, checkout, merge, etc.)

My primary contributions lay in the research and diffing phases.

With a group of two other students, we created Cantio, a web application that facilitates learning spoken and written foreign languages through music. This was completed during the Fall 2021 semester for the Project Studio Technology course.

I created the Phoenix Uke, a ukulele body modified to control a Moog Werkstatt synthesizer, with two other students. Our project won third place in the hackathon.

I composed a piece of music written for a virtual instrument I designed from scratch in VCV Rack. I wrote the semi-unconventional visual score in LilyPond, a LaTeX-like programming language for music score engraving. This was completed in the second half of the Spring 2020 semester, immediately after the transition to online classes due to COVID.

I wrote a synthesizer that loosely models a harpsichord from scratch in PureData, a visual audio programming environment. This work was completed at the end of the Fall 2020 semester for the Audio Technology I course.
