We have a new funding opportunity for a PhD on the Experimental Virtual
Archeological-Acoustics: Multimodal study of the influence of rooms on playing
techniques of musicians on 17th and 18th century instruments at Versailles
Keywords
Virtual acoustics, virtual reality, room acoustics, psychoacoustics, musical
acoustic, historically informed performance, musicology, Baroque period,
Chateau de Versailles
Thesis topic: The PhD project consists of assisting in the creation of a
real-time room acoustic simulator for use with musicians, taking into account
the musicians movements and the impact of dynamic source directivity. The
simulator will be put into use for studying the impact of room acoustics on
musicians playing, focusing on comparisons between Baroque chamber music venues
and classical period equivalents (Berlioz time). The thesis work will
contribute to the research and documentation of pertinent venues, acoustic
measurements of existing venues, and the creation of ecologically valid
geometrical acoustics models of some of these venues. The thesis will include a
series of perceptual studies examining the impact of acoustic variations on
playing, in the context of historically informed performance methods.

Candidatures will be processed starting 17-July-2019 and evaluated as received
until the position is filled, or 1-Sep-2019.
