| Description (ECIAD) | This course is an introduction to working with
time-based media and sound practices, focusing on
the use of video
and sound to explore relationships with place.
Topics include field listening and recording,
basic electronics, sound
synthesis, soundscape composition, performance,
and video installation. The course includes
technical workshops,
group activities, discussions, and both
collaborative and individual projects. Readings
and examples of artists and
artworks provide critical context for students'
thinking and making. Assignments include
techniques to enhance
listening and observation skills, and generative
methods that lead to experimental and open-ended
projects. The
course fosters an ability to think critically
about making media and sound art in relation to
the places we inhabit. |
