Individuals receiving advanced degrees in the arts (visual, sound, performance, text), computer sciences, the sciences and/or technology that in some way investigate philosophical, historical or critical applications of science or technology to the arts are invited to submit abstracts of their theses for consideration. Leonardo Abstracts Service (LABS), consisting of an English-language database, Spanish-language database, Chinese-language database and French-language database, is a comprehensive collection of Ph.D., Masters and MFA thesis abstracts on topics in the emerging intersection of art, science and technology. Erbe was instrumental in the design and construction of the Conrad Prebys Music Center, which opened in April 2009. At UCSD, Erbe developed the Spectral Shapers, Delay Trio and Freesound plugin bundles, which explore new and old techniques in computer sound processing. In 2004, he joined the faculty of University of California, San Diego (UCSD), in the Department of Music. While at CalArts, he archived the David Tudor collection for the Getty Research Institute.
Erbe also directed the design and construction of CalArts' Dizzy Gillespie Recording Studios. Here he continued his work with SoundHack and spectral techniques, teaching courses in computer music, programming, and audio engineering. In 1993, Erbe joined the faculty of the California Institute of the Arts as Technical Director of the computer music studios. His research work at CCM included the program SoundHack, and the design of a 4-channel spatial audio processor for the NASA Ames Research Center. At Mills, he worked as computer music and recording engineer with composers Robert Ashley, David Rosenboom, Larry Polansky, James Tenney and Alvin Curran. In 1987, Erbe became the Technical Director of the Center for Contemporary Music (CCM) at Mills College. In addition, Erbe has engineered the LMJ CD Series-a total of 19 CDs-since 1991, when the first LMJ CD was produced.
Erbe studied computer science and music at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, and got his initial audio engineering experiences at WEFT, WPGU, and Faithful Sound Studios. In addition to his pioneering and widely used program SoundHack, he has become one of the most sought after and respected sound engineers for contemporary music. Tom Erbe has played an important role in American experimental and electronic music for the last 20 years. LMJ welcomes Tom Erbe to the LMJ Editorial Board.
