Hi, DXARTS is offering the Fundamentals of Digital Sound this summer to all non-DXARTS undergraduates and graduates – no add code is required. This course does not presume knowledge of computer programing of entering students.
Students will learn:
• Digital sound for digital art applications
• Project-based course focused on creating experimental sound compositions
• Overview of the history of electronic music and analysis of important works from its cannon
• Acoustics
• Psychoacoustics
• Digital sound theory
• Digital signal processing

In DXARTS 460 you will create your own experimental sound compositions, while learning basic techniques of sound editing, such as time-segmentation, pitch shifting, time stretching, filtering, etc.
