CTRL+SOUND offers a one-day event dedicated to advances in artificial intelligence applied to audio and its creative applications.
The event will bring together researchers, students, and technology professionals around three key opportunities for sharing and exchange: invited talks, hands-on workshops, and a scientific poster session featuring presentations by PhD students and early-career researchers working in audio AI.
CTRL+SOUND aims to contribute to the development and structuring of the Île-de-France audio AI ecosystem by fostering exchanges between academic communities, industry stakeholders, cultural institutions, and entrepreneurs. By bringing together the expertise of the SCAI and Hi! PARIS clusters, the event seeks to strengthen collaborations across the Île-de-France region, increase the visibility of research on AI applied to sound, and foster new synergies around the scientific, technological, and creative challenges of intelligent audio.
