Description
This course introduces creative applications of digital technologies to create electronic sound art. Students will record sounds from the real world environment, then work with them creatively in the studio to create original music compositions. The course focuses on building foundational skills on state-of-the-art recording, editing and production software. Lectures cover rudimentary principles in the physics of sound; an overview of the history of electronic music; and an introduction to the concepts and aesthetics of the electronic music genre. Tutorials are lab-based and applied.
