Alongside fieldwork, students will learn basic recording techniques, engage in theoretical readings - drawn from eco-musicology and sound studies - and classroom discussions directed towards the creation of individual and/or group sound compositions/projects. These compositions can be imagined in a multitude of creative ways, including podcasting, sound art/essays, visual arts, dance/movement arts, songwriting, etc. No special expertise or equipment is needed, and guidance with audio editing programs is built into the course.
