| Course Description | Prerequisites: MUSI V2205 or Consent of the Instructor. A central aspect of composing with computer media is designing the software system with which we will work; in other words, the composer, performer and/or improviser is often responsible for designing and assembling his own instrument. Electronic and Computer Music practices challenge our views of what a musical instrument is and how it is expected to behave. Through the analysis of various documents by a wide range of musicians as diverse as Theremin, Schaeffer, Stockhausen, Mathews, Moore, Tenney, Risset, Buchla, Moog, Mumma, Martirano, Waisvisz, Rowe, and Puckette amongst others, we will attempt to understand what new conceptions of musical instrument may have emerged with electric and digital media, and explore software implementations of some of their designs towards a final paper or computer system. |
