Description
Bad Sound: Non-Traditional Ways to Create Sounds
for Images
Erasing notions of hi-fidelity sound, this class
acknowledges that the right sound for a film might
be the result of an aleatory accident,
ill-conceived experiment or unpolished
performance. As such we will explore DIY and open
source tools for making, recording and
manipulating sound for image. Spanning both
digital and analog domains students will engage to
cannibalize free sound libraries, resuscitate (and
reimagine) obsolete media, misuse recording
equipment, improvise musical instruments, as well
as lightly bend/hack circuits and software.
