My name is Alan, a senior majoring in Statistics and Information Science. I am originally from Brooklyn, NY, which I think is one of the modern hearts of electronic music. I can’t play any instruments, but I’ve dabbled around with GarageBand and Audacity, and would say I’m an amateur; thus, I want to take this class to get better. Music has been a staple in my life, particularly electronic music, so I’d like to become a part of the community to give back what I’ve been given. I am also interested in the applications of statistics to music and waves, so having a fundamental knowledge on the subject is necessary for such analyses.
