Class Description

This course aims to help students understand the close relationship between music and the development of contemporary technology, thereby cultivating their abilities in music technology research and creation. We will explore the application of music in areas such as human-computer interfaces, networks, artificial intelligence, immersive sound, and wearable devices.

The students will create new alternative instruments using Arduino, TouchDesigner, Ableton, Playtron, and other tools.

Impact

For the final presentation of this course, we will perform together with the students at Xin-Hai Elementary School. They will use the new alter instruments we created and combined with XR technology that allows them to improvise and create their own music.
