Scratch doctor

Postby falkenberg » Wed Feb 17, 2010 10:12 am

So, the doctor has finally arrived...

I had my defense last Friday, and are happy to say it went well. My opponent and committee were Rolf Inge Godöy, Nicola Bernardini, Cumhur Erkut and Tony Brooks.

The thesis is available at http://www.speech.kth.se/~kjetil/thesis/ and as a printed book. The book is free, and I'll even post it (PM me here with your address), but be quick as the stock is shrinking, and there'll be no reprint! :-) It is entitled "The acoustics and performance of DJ scratching. Analysis and modeling." and has a small part with current alternative interfaces.

Wow! Congratulations!

I suppose that copies of the book may have run out by now? I would be very interested, otherwise.

It arrived! I'm so happy, looks great, will make for good reading and of course it's already a bit of a historical document.
(and, yes, isn't my postal code, with "DJ" in it, the greatest?)
