Biography

Artemi-Maria Gioti is a composer and artistic researcher working in the fields of artificial intelligence, musical robotics and participatory sound art. Her compositions include works for acoustic instruments and interactive electronics, musical robotics and participatory performances and have been performed in Greece, Austria, Portugal, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, U.K., Canada, The Netherlands and in the USA.

Her research explores the transformative potential of new technologies for musical thinking and seeks to redefine notions of authorship, performership and the construct of the musical work. Interactivity is a central focus of her art and research, which views the musical work as the product of collaborative and distributed human-human and human-computer co-creativity.

She studied composition, electroacoustic composition and computer music at the University of Macedonia (Greece), the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna and the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz, where she received her PhD in composition. Currently, she is a Lecturer at the University of Music Carl Maria von Weber Dresden and a Research Fellow in Music and Artificial Intelligence at the University College London (UCL), working on the ERC project »MusAI«, led by Georgina Born.
