Sound Design
About this course
The aim of the course is to introduce the theoretical and practical issues of sound design.
Expected learning outcomes
By completion of this course, students will be familiar with the theoretical background required for understanding basic sonic algorithmic processes
and will have gained skills to develop their first computer music synthesis and sonic interaction algorithms in (mainly, but not exclusively) graphical
audio programming environments.
