Or composition plus science fiction. After you take the course, you will have composed several new pieces. You might design a musical instrument. You will have opportunities to solve problems. \u00a0You will become familiar with how artists use signal processing to compose and to make things. You will be exposed to to a world of possibilities &#8211; which you may embrace or reject.<\/p>\n<p>We will compose, by improvising, using tools that transform signals and data. \u00a0We will explore a range of methods and have opportunities to use them in projects. We&#8217;ll look at examples by artists &#8211; asking the question: How does this work?<\/p>\n<p>Signal processing involve one or more of the following actions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>analysis<\/li>\n<li>measurement<\/li>\n<li>transformation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For example, recording is a form of measurement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Topics<\/strong>: (subject to change)<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Future music tools<\/li>\n<li>Artificial intelligence<\/li>\n<li>Signals: granular synthesis and convolution<\/li>\n<li>Voices<\/li>\n<li>Problem solving, prototyping, portfolios<\/li>\n<li>How to get ideas<\/li>\n<li>Computers and Live performance<\/li>\n<li>Demodulation and reversibility<\/li>\n<li>Using the wrong tools<\/li>\n<li>Music from data \u2013 sensors, sonification, Internet API\u2019s<\/li>\n<li>Statistics<\/li>\n<li>Transcoding<\/li>\n<li>Radio waves and ultrasound<\/li>\n<li>Visualization<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Grading and projects:<\/h3>\n<p>Grades will be based on compositions, several small assignments, and class participation.
