I work on sonic and embodied interaction: model-based, neural sound and motion synthesis. Currently I am looking into foundational models and MLOps from an academic point of view.

I highligt the possibility of interactive machine learning in relation to VR for sonic and embodied interaction in the paper. Watch below how our student Erik Knudsen trains InteractML to recognize movement qualities of the interaction he programmed, while providing sonic feedback, in our course Embodied Interaction.
