[700px]

Due date

• final performance rehearsal: Wednesday 3/18/2015, 6-10pm (sign up for a slot)
• final presentations / performances : Thursday 3/19/2015, 3:30pm, CCRMA Stage
• all material (final project website containing code, data files, README) due ***before*** performance starts!

Aspect 1: "Computer-Mediated"

• must take advantage of the computer in a compelling/non-trivial way
• for example: algorithms! sound synthesis! interactive control! generative systems!

Aspect 2: "Audio-Visual"

• audio: use ChucK
• visual: interpret this as you'd like;
  • option 1: use Processing for real-time graphics/animation, coupled to audio/ChucK via OSC
  • option 2: otherwise involve visuals in a core/non-peripheral way: e.g., design gestures/movement mapped to sound

Aspect 3: "Live Performance"

• design not only the system (sound, music, interaction, code), but ***design the performance***, being extremely mindful to have and navigate one or more aesthetics
• aim for 3-7 minute per piece (though your fully designed live performance can be longer or shorter)
• keep in mind setup/transition time

Deliverables

turn in all files by putting them in your Library/Web/220b/project/ directory, and then linking to them from your Library/Web/220b/final.html - and submitting the link to Ge and Alex

• 1) source code + sound files for your performance
• 2) written documentation (and any program notes / bios)
• 3) your final.html should link to these files
• 4) the final live performance
