Hi, I’m Jean-Philippe Jullin # and this is where i share my work
I’m currently finishing a Master’s in composition and sound creation at the Université de Montréal, supervised by Dominic Thibault. My research focuses on the use of machine learning in musical contexts, in particular the exploration of latent sonic spaces based on perceptual aspects. I work on interactive and immersive systems that aim to facilitate exchange and collaboration between humans and machines, without either dominating the other.
My work is funded by the Fonds de Recherche du Québec - Société et Culture (FRQSC), and I’ve received the Marcelle-Deschênes award, as well as scholarships for excellence from the Faculty of Music. Some of my projects have been featured in Musicworks magazine, and I’ve presented at conferences like NIME, Sound/Image, ICMC and AIMC.
My artistic interests center around exploring the relationship between humans and machines in sound creation. Traditionally, this relationship has been seen in a binary way, with machines either treated as simple tools or as technologies that make us passive and dependent.
But I think it’s more nuanced than that.
There’s a whole spectrum of interactions possible, and playing with them creates a huge playground for sound and art. A key part of this exploration involves embodied cognition—the idea that our minds are deeply influenced by the physical and sensory experiences we have with the world around us. By integrating this concept into my work, I explore how our bodies and machines can interact in more intuitive and fluid ways. Through co-creation, I experiment with systems thinking and machine learning, aiming to craft expressive art.
