Next Offered:Spring Semester Offered: Second Semester Credits (Range): 3 Hours Attribute:CNDP TECH 204 explores the musical, technological, and scholarly tools currently available to electroacoustic composers, paying particular attention to the systems proposed by composers such as Wishart, Smalley, Emmerson, and Norman. While we deal extensively with certain hardware and software such as Max/MSP and ProTools, the course is not "about" said tools. Rather, it is organized around musical/scholarly practice and approaches, each of which inevitably draws on a variety of tools. All topics are approached through a combination of reading, listening, and creative work with the ultimate goal of expanding compositional resources and scholarly vocabulary. The first module focuses on stereo composition and diffusion, while the second focuses on multi- channel composition. Enrollment Limit:15 Instructor: T.
