Sonic Practice Studio

Catalog description

This studio course provides an exploration of current practices in sonic arts and facilitates the development of sound-based creative work. Through production and critiques we will examine a number of overlapping areas of sonic practice and audio culture including phonography, sound installation, field recording and environmental audio, sonic narratives in language and other forms, mobile audio and soundwalks, and the materiality of noise. Students will develop sound-based pieces by working individually and in groups. The pieces will be developed for specific sites and situations and will function as creative research into the subjects areas of the course.
