MUSIC105

This course engages students with a practice-based dive into the creative applications of music technology towards music-making. It tasks students with investigating the answers to questions like: what unique affordances does music technology provide us to create new and novel musical experiences? How do we leverage music technology towards live performance, recording, installations, and potentially beyond? What are the pitfalls or difficulties of making music with technology? Taught with an actively collaborative and hands-on approach, students will complete creative assignments throughout the quarter that build towards an open-ended individual or small-group based creative project. Please note: Some basic coding experience is helpful, but not required.
