MUSIC 459Electronic Music Composition II
Electronic Music Composition II is the second course of a two-semester sequence focused on composition for electronic media. The projects in this course focus on spatial and interactive aspects of computer music, in addition to how these works are realized through the course of performance. The pieces created by students in the course will range from interactive electro-acoustic works realized in real-time to a work for electronic instrument ensemble. Students will become familiar with a variety of software tools and programming languages. The aim of the course is to focus equally on the artistic/compositional merits of your work and provide each student with a thorough knowledge of the technical skills needed to create unique work-specific programs. We will explore a ground-up approach and each student will design distinctive computer tools that support their individual voice as a composer.
