Bruno L. Giordano PhD

Postdoctoral fellow, Schulich School of Music, McGill University

Supervisor: Stephen McAdams


Biography:

Bruno L. Giordano received his PhD on 2005 with a thesis on the perception of impacted sound sources jointly supervised by the Department of Psychology, University of Padova, Italy, and by STMS-IRCAM-CNRS, Paris, France.

His main research interest is the psychophysics of natural sounds.  His past and present research focus on: theories of integration of auditory information, measurement of the acoustical correlates of auditory cognition, psychophysics of musical timbre, auditory recognition of emotions, category-specificities in the cognitive processing of environmental sounds, perception of visual brightness, multisensory integration in passive and interactive conditions, methodological comparison of behavioral techniques for dissimilarity estimation. He collaborated to research on: spatial components of the mental representation of pitch, acoustical correlates of sound degradation and of musical timbre perception, perception of musical individuality, effects of context on the multimodal perception of sound events. He is currently researching category-specificities in the neural processing of environmental sounds.

His work has been published in the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, Cognition, Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, and in a variety of conference proceedings.
