Workshop Description: This workshop will provide a brief history of the basic themes and elements in electroacoustic music from both the classic school (e.g., Cage, Eno, Schaeffer) and the modern school (e.g., Deadmau5, Teebs, Daft Punk). The students will work within apps to compose and manipulate soundscapes with techniques such as sampling, electronic composition, IOS recording and found-sound organization among others. In addition, students will build their own personal sonic brand by studying, analyzing and emulating a broad array of styles within the electroacoustic realm (e.g., hip hop, dance, ambient). Students will also focus on the newly-evolving role of the sonic producer of electroacoustic music to prepare them to adapt and contribute in the modern audio marketplace.

Success completion on this workshop will enable the student to:

• Construct both classic and modern school electroacoustic sonic productions with the IPad and apps.
• Explain the function and role of electronic based music, and demonstrate an understanding of the electroacoustic styles.
• Explain acoustic and digital sound properties and characteristics.
• Manipulate electroacoustic compositions through the digital audio recording chain
