Recording Sound
Day 1: What is sound, and why should we care? Sound quality, foreground/background, the horrors of MP3 Elementary Acoustics Day 2: Microphones & instruments Signals "Representations" of stored sound (Analog vs Digital, formats) Day 3: How to record Where to record What to record And Why (i.e. make a Plan first...) Day 4: Generating sounds (Synths, samplers, drum-machines, etc.) & Gathering sounds (from libraries, on-line)
Outcome
We built our own piezos (contact mics). I used one of them to record machine sounds.
Mastering Sound
Day 1: Different programs all work more or less the same way Using multiple tracks Mixing multiple tracks Day 2: Using EQ & Filters Day 3: Using Dynamic Compression & Gates Day 4: Reverb, Echo & Spatialisation & Mastering
Outcome
Used the knowledge to produce the soundtracks requested by Larry Sider.
André Castro
Into the sound studio
A hands-on introduction to the analogue sound studio.
Outcome
Used the knowledge to record sounds using WORM analogue studio. Some of these sound samples were used in Larry Sider's assignments. Together with André and Michaela, we built a special mic, capable of recording static noise (eletro-magnetic fields). Some of these sound samples were used in Larry Sider's assignments.
