About
I am a professor in the School for Interactive Arts + Technology (SIAT) of Simon Fraser University (SFU)'s Faculty of Communication, Arts and Technology since January 2008. There, I am conducting both a scientific and artistic research agenda. I lead the Metacreation Lab for Creative AI which researches the theory and practice of Artificial Intelligence, i.e., endowing machines with autonomous behaviours, with a focus on creative and artistic applications. Overall, my work is multidisciplinary, and encompasses scientific and artistic research along with education and service to a variety of communities. philippepasquier.com

Personal Data
Note: this document is divided into two main parts.
The first one covers the scientific and academic
dimension of my scholarly work while the second one
(starting page 41) addresses the artistic dimension of
my practice. This divide, introduced to facilitate
reading, is somewhat artificial as these are often
synergetic in the context of research-creation.
