Joseph Paradiso is an associate professor in MIT's Program in Media Arts and Sciences. He directs the MIT Media Lab's Responsive Environments Group,[1] which explores how sensor networks augment and mediate human experience, interaction and perception. He received a B.S. in electrical engineering and physics summa cum laude from Tufts University, and a Ph.D. in physics from MIT with Prof. Ulrich Becker in the Nobel Prize-winning group headed by Prof. Samuel C.C. Ting at the Laboratory for Nuclear Science.
Joe's research focuses include ubiquitous computing, embedded systems, sensor networks, wearable and body area networks, energy harvesting and power management for embedded sensors, and interactive media.
He designed and built one of the world's largest modular synthesizers, and has designed MIDI systems for internationally-known musicians such as Pat Metheney and Lyle Mays.[2] The synthesizer is currently enjoying renewed attention, and recently began streaming live-generated audio over the internet to listeners and enthusiasts worldwide.[3]
