Composing Electronic Sound Poetry

Poets, lyricists, rappers, composers, intermedia experimentalists, and others curious about combining words and sounds are invited to explore the exciting world of sound poetry. Students will make electronic works, musique concrète soundscapes, songs, or audio essays featuring their voice or that of others, with vocal sounds produced by singing, speaking, or speech synthesis, and employing digitally processed or collaged words. Our words can be original, collaboratively composed, quoted, or AI-generated. Students will complete several short creative etudes that build to a public concert featuring original multi-channel works, pieces with video, or live performances. No prerequisites.
