Gender and Music Technologies
Fall 2022
Taught By: Clara Latham
Section: A
CRN: 14093
Credits: 4
This course examines a wide range of musical technologies -- from player pianos to vocoders, radios to autotune -- questioning how they embody ethical values that connect to aspects of cultural identity, specifically gender, race, and sexuality. We will read classic texts of feminist and queer discourse as well as current writing on the ways gender, race, and sexuality interact with sound and music. Course material spans classical and popular music studies as well as queer studies, black studies, Marxist feminism, and sound studies. In addition to regular reading and listening assignments for class discussions, students complete a research paper or creative project and work with the programming language Max/MSP.
