<p>In this paper we report preliminary observations from an ongoing study into how musicians explore

<h5><a href="dafx17.html">An Explorative String-Bridge-Plate Model with Tunable Parameters</a></h5>
<p>The virtual exploration of the domain of mechano-acoustically produced sound and music is a
long-held aspiration of physical modelling. A physics-based algorithm developed for this purpose
combined with an interface can be referred to as a virtual-acoustic instrument…</p>
<h5><a href="nime17.html">Virtual-Acoustic Instrument Design: Exploring the Parameter Space of a
String-Plate Model</a></h5>
<p>Exploration is an intrinsic element of designing and engaging with acoustic as well as digital
musical instruments. This paper reports on the ongoing development of an explorative
virtual-acoustic instrument based on simulation of the vibrations of a string coupled
nonlinearly to a plate.</p>
<h5><a href="dafx16.html">A Real-Time Synthesis Oriented Tanpura Model</a></h5>
<p>Physics-based synthesis of tanpura drones requires accurate simulation of stiff, lossy string
vibrations while incorporating sustained contact with the bridge and a cotton thread. Several
challenges arise from this when seeking efficient and stable algorithms for real-time sound
synthesis.</p>
<h5><a href="smc16.html">Towards A Virtual-Acoustic String Instrument</a></h5>
<p>In acoustic instruments, the controller and the sound producing system often are one and the same
object. If virtual-acoustic instruments are to be designed to not only simulate the vibrational
behaviour of a real-world counterpart but also to inherit much of its interface dynamics…

<h3>About Me</h3>
</header>
<p>Sandor Mehes is currently pursuing an interdisciplinary Ph.D. at Queen's University Belfast,
focusing on the development of a virtual acoustic instrument that responds sonically to players
actions and affording specific performance nuances, utilising the advantages of physical
modelling. He is also a radio host <a href="http://futuremusic.fm"
target="_blank">(futuremusic.fm)</a>, record label owner <a
href="https://acrerecordings.bandcamp.com" target="_blank">(Acre Recordings)</a>
and producer.</p>
