Final Project

In this open-ended final project, you are to devise your own project. The only requirement is that you

  • “do something interesting with computer-generated sound”
  • incorporate audio programming (using ChucK) in some way
  • produce a polished media (audio or audio-video) showcasing or documenting your project

This can take one of many forms, including:

  • a musical statement, possibly incorporating topics from Music 220A
  • a (computer) music video!
  • a software system to support musical composition, performance, and/or other creative use
  • A structured and documented exploration into a particular topic from 220A, possibly as a teaching guide or resource for a particular audience (e.g., a webpage illustrating a particular synthesis technique or a suite of code example and visualizations to illustrate a particular perceptual phenomenon)
  • or ? (talk to us!)


Due Date

  • milestone 1: 2021.5.17 (in-class) Monday
  • milestone 2: 2021.5.24 (in-class) Monday
  • final deliverables due: 2021.6.2 (11:59pm) Wednesday
  • listening party: (time and format TBA)


Milestones

  • for Milestone 1 (5/17), please come to class with three ideas (ideally as different as possible from one another) and be prepared to talk about them; choose one of three ideas and do some preliminary work (code, score, design, etc.)
  • for Milestone 2 (5/24), please demonstrate a functioning work-in-progress. Include anything on your webpage that's helpful to talk about your explorations and thinking for this milestone.
  • as always, please be prepared to offer constructive feedback to others
