• UnauthorizedBiography: Eugenio Giordani was born in Pesaro, Italy, in 1954. He received a diploma in Pianoforte at the Conservatorio G. Rossini in 1973, and a diploma in Electronic Music in 1975. In 1980, he obtained a degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Ancona with a graduation thesis on the simulation of key hammer action in electronic pianos using piezo-electric buzzers.

  He has taught piano since 1976, and he has taught Electronic Music at the Conservatorio G. Rossini since 1981. In 1982, he started a collaboration as an audio researcher at ISELQUI (Instituto Elettronico per la Qualita Industriale). In the same year, he received an honorable mention at the XI Electronic Music Competition of Bourges with the composition "Voicings" for magnetic tape. In 1988 he won the 3rd prize at the Newcomp Computer Music Competition with "Solaria", a two track computer generated composition using Music 11 and perhaps the earliest version of CSound, which ran on a VAX 785. He was for many years a member of Musica Verticale and a co-founder of the Musica/Complessita(M/C) association. With M/C he participated as a teacher at the Musica-Complessita Seminars in 1988/89 with Guido Baggiani, Walter Branchi, Anselmo Cananzi, Barry Truax, Ervin Lazslo and others in Italy.

  For three years, he played with the Electravox Ensemble, an Italian group specializing in electro-acoustic performances. The group included Luigi Ceccarelli, David Keberle, Mark Dresser. In 1990 he joined with two electrical engineers (Sandro Gabrielli and Stefano Bondi) and founded the Studio Associato El. Project (Sape), which worked for the Italian digital organ manufacturer Viscount and Viscount Professional. The group has produced four ASIC DSP audio chips: the AGE, AGEplus, DRD and DRDplus. They designed several products for the same factory. Some of the products are sold in the USA by Oberheim (including a Hammond B3 clone named Ob3), as a commercial joint venture. At present he is an external consultant at the same factory. He is the director of the Laboratorio Elettronico per la Musica Sperimentale at the Conservatorio G. Rossini in Pesaro, and he is a member of their administration council. When not involved in some digital audio activity, he plays piano in a jazz trio. http://www.eugenio-giordani.it
