AUDI 314 New Musical Interface Design

This course lies at the intersection of “interaction design” and “sound and music computing,” covering the study and use of sound as one of the principal channels conveying information, meaning, and aesthetic/emotional qualities in interactive contexts. It focuses on technology-mediated, aesthetically-grounded design of new interfaces for musical expression, and the questions that arise from them. It also introduces design methods such as Bootlegging, Auditory Storyboarding, Paper and Sonic Prototyping, Participatory Design, Inclusive Design, Product Sound Design, Interactive Sonification, Tangible and Embodied Interaction, and Audio APIs (e.g. Designing sound in the cloud).
