Introduction to the course by Sook Young Won, new user accounts, and CCRMA tour. Lecture by Digidesign's Director of Advanced Research, Jay LeBoeuf on "The Future of Music Production" - a 220a alum and MA/MST grad - includes "some breakthrough HCI developments, as well as bold predictions on where signal processing can take us. "
How much sound is 100 ms? Peridodicity, bottom end / top end of hearing. Audio sampling. Timescales.
Needledrop demo, music clips contain 1000 years? Context and implicit timescales.
"Found music" and the advent of recording (SFMOMA lecture). Composers: Ruttman, Schaeffer, Reich, Cage, et al.
Roberto Morales performance techniques with live computer processes.
Carr Wilkerson demonstration of microphone building. A word about transducers, in general.
Perceptual time windows, spectral windows, bandwidth/time tradeoff with Snd. Looking at FM spectra with Freqtweak.
Match the source spectral "quiz."
Panning techniques: amplitude vs. intensity (power) IID, delay-based ITD, and then combining both IID + ITD in a Pd patch. And a quick explanation of analysis / resynthesis, and phase vocoder.
Reverb algorithms. Introduction to ChucK programming environment by reassembling NREV reverberator from scratch.
Final projects described. A word about distance panning cues. Time and frequency analysis of reverberation.
Digital filters, by hand. Convolution tests.
Convolution tests continued. Comparison to stretched strings and wind instruments.
Introduction to Snd and Common Music programming environment. MIDI, fm-violin.
Cope's Experiments in Musical Intelligence. Demo of video feedback as dynamical system.
Pitch tracking in Pd. Transients and subharmonics in musical acoustics. Programming dynamical systems. Note-level and audio sample-level interative maps.
Princeton laptop orchestra.
Seeing wave motion in strings. Active and passive non-linearity. Examples of physical models used in composition.
