Colloquium Series
The CCRMA Colloquium is a weekly gathering of CCRMA students, faculty, staff, and guests. It is an opportunity for members of the CCRMA community and invited speakers to share the work that they are doing in the field of Computer Music. The colloquium typically happens every Wednesday during the school year from 5:30 - 7:00pm and meets in the CCRMA Classroom, Knoll 217 unless otherwise noted.
The schedule for this year's CCRMA Colloquium can be found here: ccrma.stanford.edu/wiki/Colloquium

Date:Wed, 05/17/2017 - 5:30pm - 6:30pmLocation:CCRMA ClassroomEvent Type:ColloquiumRecent Guggenheim Fellow - composer, performer, and sound artist - Bryan Jacobs, presents this weeks CCRMA Colloquium on his recent work and research. Bryan's work focuses on interactions between live performers and electronic sound. His pieces are often theatrical in nature, pitting blabber-mouthed fanciful showoffs against timid reluctants. The sounds are playfully organized and many times mimic patterns found in human dialogue. Hand-build electromechanical instruments controlled by microcontrollers bridge acoustic and electroacoustic sound worlds. These instruments live dual lives as time-based concert works and non-time-based gallery works.

Date:Wed, 05/03/2017 - 5:30pm - 6:30pmLocation:CCRMA classroomEvent Type:ColloquiumAbstract: Originally created at Bell Labs in the 1980’s by Bob Boie and Max Mathews, the radio baton, radio drum, or radiodrum has gone through many iterations, including two new ones that I have been working on recently; both are currently “one-of-a-kind.” I will demonstrate an entirely analog version of the instrument created by Bob Boie, and a new SDR (software defined radio) version that is in the process of being tested. Both of these instruments differ from Max’s versions, in that they are designed to be more of a 3D percussion instrument than a conducting device.
