This page includes emerging research and thought processes that have been developed and refined overtime to address the topic of creativity as a sustainable practice in music production, representing the culmination of my academic pursuits in completing a master's thesis towards Music Technology at New York University.​

Below is a brief summary of my thesis titled, "Objective Creativity: Optimization of Creative Choices in Music Production": 

The optimization of creative choices in music production through objective creativity, consists of conducting cross-sectional analysis and application of principles primarily ranging from music technology, music psychology, quantum mechanics, and neuroscience. These principles, which are also supplemented by gathered processes from topics involving metaphysics and general psychology, are implemented together with the overarching goal of optimizing creative choices in music production through an objective framework that consistently produces novelty withstanding certain constraints not yet realized but within the range of concepts like beauty, truth, relevance, etc.

The methodological framework, inspired by inductive reasoning, aims to enable any artist to express their music as effectively and efficiently as possible, and considers two major questions: In what objective measures can the brain be considered creative through music production? How can creative expressions under these measures be accurately expressed through music so as to induce and allow the perception of particular emotions in a listener?

Research findings indicate that the created framework has an overall positive impact on artists with fewer than 7 years of digital audio workstation experience, by reducing their negative mood affective states during the creative process.
