About Me
Mark Cartwright is an Assistant Professor of Informatics at New Jersey Institute of Technology where he leads the Sound Interaction and Computing (SInC) Lab. His research lies at the intersection of human-computer interaction and machine learning applied to audio and music. Specifically, he researches human-centered machine listening and audio processing tools that enable new interactions for creative expression through sound and understanding the acoustic world at scale. Before his current position, he was a research assistant professor at NYU affiliated with both the Music and Audio Research Laboratory and the Center for Urban Science and Progress. He received his PhD in Computer Science at Northwestern University as a member of the Interactive Audio Lab, and he holds an MA in Music Science and Technology from Stanford University (CCRMA) and a BMus in Music Technology from Northwestern University.
