Kivanc Tatar

Assistant Professor at Data Science and AI

Kıvanç Tatar is an artist/technologist/researcher working at the intersection of Music, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Interactive Arts, Design, and Human-Computer Interaction. His research in musical AI includes multimodal applications that combine music with movement computation, or visual arts. His computational approaches have been integrated into musical performances, interactive artworks, and immersive environments including virtual reality. Tatar’s interdisciplinary work has been exhibited across the globe; including the notable events of the cultural program at Rio Olympics 2016, the Ars Electronica Festival 2017 and 2020, CHI 2018, Mutek Montreal 2018, and Contemporary Istanbul PlugIn 2019. He is an Assistant Professor in Interactive AI at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden.
