Course Description

Summary

In this class, students will use their voices to create stylistically diverse sonic compositions, from sound collages to pop songs. The focus will be on learning a variety of techniques on how to transform the human voice with electronics. We will cover vocoders, ring modulators, delays, autotune, harmonizers and pitch shifters. A series of composition assignments will frame the class, each designed to demonstrate a special aspect of vocal processing. Students will propose a final composition project at the midterm, to be presented at the end of the class in an in-class concert
