Sample Learning Enrichment Workshop Description

Did You Hear That? Sonic Art Using Computers

Computer music, electronic music, sound design. By any name, recent years have seen an explosion of creative activities in computer-aided sonic art. Be a part of it! Learn about hard-disk recording, mixing and editing, sound manipulation, field recording, digital sound effects, and composition with sound. Listen to and discuss the best pieces from this growing area of music. Explore the microscopic inside of a sound.

Under the friendly guidance of internationally known composer Dr. Daniel Weymouth and assistants, you will discover a new way of hearing, and of approaching sound. And, you will create! This is a project-based course: we will spend half of the time in discussion, and half in hands-on work. At the end of the session, you will have a chance to present your new pieces in an informal concert. All the pieces will be complied into a CD, which you can take home to share with friends and family.

No prior musical experience is required, just an interest in sound! Basic computer literacy (nothing fancy) is assumed.

Specific programs, dates, and times are subject to change.
