Making Interactive Tools for Music and Audio (Final Year) - AHM3220

Assessment 1: Portfolio (including examples)

A sequence of formative exercises/tests undertaken in seminars and designed to develop skill in working with the software (equivalent to 1000 words).

Portfolio

Assessment 1: Portfolio

Portfolio of Term 1 Exercises (c. 2-3 shorter tasks).

Assessment 2: Portfolio

Portfolio of Term 2 Exercises (c. 2-3 shorter tasks).
Within each portfolio tasks will be tailored towards specific subsets of the learning outcomes. The overall balance of any student’s submission will reflect all learning outcomes. Work in term 2 is expected to be more advanced than that in term 1.

Making Interactive Tools for Music and Audio (Year 2)

AIM2219 - Making Interactive Tools for Music and Audio (Year 2)

<p>You will be introduced to the techniques and underlying concepts of audio programming languages/interactive environments such as MaxMSP, Supercollider, Csound and Chuck. Such environments allow musicians, artists and DSP engineers to design complex interactive audio software without dealing with the details that would be necessary within programming languages like C and C&#43;&#43;. You will gain practical experience of working with at least one domain specific language or environment. Whilst some teaching will be necessarily language-specific, techniques will be presented in relation to core transferrable programming and audio concepts. You will also develop some awareness of the existence and relative merits of a range of relevant technologies for audio programming/interactive work.</p>
