Postdoctoral Researcher, Department of Music
Vor 3 Tagen
The Department of Music Acoustics - Wiener Klangstil (IWK) at the mdw - University of Music and performing Arts Vienna seeks a Postdoctoral Researcher to work on the project “The bowed string. Experimental and numerical investigations of playing techniques in bowed-string instruments”, funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF.
The main goal of the project is to analyse the playing technique in bowed-string instruments by means of experiments with artificial and human players and computer simulations. We aim at investigating the player control over the bowed-string instrument in terms of the interactions taking place at the excitation mechanism. The analysis will take place by monitoring the actions of musicians (using motion-capture technology), instructing a robotic arm to excite an instrument using a bow and formulating a physical model to simulate the bow-string interaction.
**Salary**: According to the Austrian collective labour agreement, the monthly gross pay is at a minimum € 4.061,50 per month before tax (14 times a year).
Selection process
Applicants should send:
- a letter of motivation
- a CV (including list of publications)
- two reference letters (see below)
