Description In small groups, students will plan, prepare, and perform a substantial artistically and technically challenging live performance project. Students' performance practices will be expanded by integrating any thematically linked subset of software, hardware (controllers and synths), video and other multimedia, stagecraft, lighting, spatialisation, algorithms, theory, and improvisation. Students will learn how to integrate music and sound with multimedia and technology; develop their skills in digital audio software and interactive technology; gain experience of working collaboratively on a creative project; and contextualise their work within a broader cultural context. The teaching material comprises pre-recorded lectures and guided workshops, which are undertaken on campus.
