Obsah

Course overview:

The course complements the sound practice of students by providing a theoretical underpinning for their work. This introduction to Sound Studies, both historical and contemporary, provides a framework for student’s understanding of sound art projects as well as examining the literature and theories related to contemporary music, composition and recorded sound in the late 20th and 21st centuries.

Themes:

The class emphasises on each part contingent on the cohort of student’s sound and video art works.

There is an overlap between all of these subjects in the theoretical literature. Texts, musics, films and moving image and sound artworks serve as points of departure for discussion and understanding of sound phenomena.
