First Semester. TECH 351 explores the use of sound and music in
articulating environmental phenomena, focusing on solar power in real
time and space. The course will combine the expertise of faculty and
students in musical composition, environmental studies, and physics to
design solar thermal musical instruments. We also plan to use sound to
articulate resource consumption and solar power electronically, based
on data from the Adam Joseph Lewis Center’s monitoring system.
Students in this class will join students from ENVS 212 for the second
module to produce sounding installations. This course satisfies a TECH 350 requirement for TIMARA majors.
Prerequisites & Notes Consent of instructor required.
