Tristan Peng (he/him) is a Music Technology PhD student at the Georgia Institute of Technology exploring interaction design, spatial audio, and sonification; previously studying at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA) in the Music Department at Stanford University. A creative technologist and musician, his work aims to democratize music through technology — creating accessible, artful, and interactive ways for people to experience sound. His current projects investigate how data can become a medium for participation and how immersive audio spaces can evoke emotion and understanding in ways that traditional visualizations cannot.
