TECH 106 - It’s Electric! An Introduction to Live Sound Design for Live Performance

FC CNDP

4 credits
In this course, students will develop a practice through which they use their artistic and sonic voices to create a world through which design can simultaneously provide anchors as well as act as a container for choreographed or scripted performance. From live scoring of silent film, to John Cage and Merce Cunningham’s deep collaborative relationship and beyond, the course will simultaneously look at historic examples of sound-performance collaboration while focusing on developing students’ sonic landscapes as part of a deeper collaborative practice between themselves and the body-based partners they may work with.
