This studio course enables acoustic and electronic musicians to explore collaborative music-making with analog and digital/software-based technologies, focusing on the possibilities of Max/MSP, a visual programming language for media and music. Through ensemble work, students will explore the established electronic music repertoire and recent compositions as well as the use of improvisation to explore live sound processing, sampling, synthesis, and music interactivity. A willingness to experiment and work collaboratively with other students on creative projects is required. Prerequisite: LMUS 2053 Sound and Technology, or permission of the instructor. This upper-level course is restricted to sophomores, juniors, and seniors.
