This course aims to provide an opportunity for students to study in-depth selected topics in contemporary issues and technological innovations related to sound art.

Through examination of theories and case studies related to the topic, students will get an initial look at issues in sound art from an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural perspective. The course will then guide them to integrate various points of view, and to develop their own critical judgment on the topic under study.

Starting on the basis of this initial introduction the course will then aim to investigate through practice different approaches and methodologies to the course topic, and to ultimately connect and integrate them with existing skills and knowledge of course participants. The aim is to develop and practice skills and concepts for students’ creative practices relating to sound at an advanced level.
