Creative Sound Studio I CA 145 (3)

An introduction to the methods of creative composition in diverse contexts. A hands-on sound and music-making experience through the exploration of digital audio workstations, composing for performance featuring objects and DIY instruments, approaches to music annotation/scoring/scripting, as well as exposure to new work and artists via in-depth analysis and discussion. Students will be required to attend a weekly area-wide seminar where the practice of composition will be discussed.

If you are not a Music and Sound Major, but wish to take this course with the intention of considering the Major, please contact the SCA Undergraduate Academic Advisor at sca_adv@sfu.ca.
