Deliverables

As usual, turn in all files by putting them in your Library/Web/220a/ directory.

  • 1) hw6.wav should go into the 220a directory
  • 2) create a hw6/ directory, and put all the stuff below in there:
  • 3) all related source/sound files (.wav/.ck)
  • 4) a short README text (readme.txt) file that:
    • specifies instructions on running your programs
    • describes your process/adventure, and perhaps the ideas (technical/aesthetic) behind the composition
    • gives credit, if needed, for the sounds you are using
    • describe any difficulties you encountered in the process


Thanks!!!
