Dylan Cantor

Computer Science and Music Technology at NYU, graduating May 2027. I work on Gil Weinberg's research team at the Georgia Tech Center for Music Technology, where I build the iOS client for HearMe. In spring 2026 I studied spatial audio at IRCAM through NYU’s program there, and I founded Clubs, which is live on the App Store.

My work is on real-time and collaborative music systems: networked performance, low-latency audio, and spatial audio.

Close Quarters — with Nick Benak.

I release music under several names — rap, avant-garde jazz-rock, electronic. Guitar and modular synthesizer; production, engineering and mixing. The engineering and the music are not separate practices; each is why the other is interesting.

Psychedelic rock, 49 minutes, continuous — it plays in the bar at the bottom and keeps going as you move around the site.
