Overview
This course is an opportunity for students who have completed Music 220a and Music 220b to pursue an independent research project in computer music. Students regularly present their research and project progress in a weekly seminar-style class meeting. In addition, projects in progress are documented on the web.
This is a 4-unit course. It can be taken for 2 or 3 units to accommodate grad students, but everyone is expected to work at the 4-unit level.
Requirements
Students can choose between a research project, a musical/artistic project or a combination of both. Projects require a substantial amount of documentation in the form of a website and a mid-quarter and final report. The deliverable are:
- Weekly progress reports: in-class and website documentation, in a form of progress report logs.
- Website with all the detailed description, progress reports logs, and all the data so that anyone can be able to reproduce your results.
- A final presentation and a demo or performance of the work.

Grading
The grading criteria will be based on creativity (is it a novel idea or creative solution to a problem?), execution (how well crafted the project is), presentation (are your paper, website, and presentation well explained and presented?) and own-goal achievements (did you achieve your own goals that you set for the project?).
Some Suggestions
- Make sure you document everything you do. It will enable you and others to reproduce it later.
