A theoretical and practical study of how computers synthesize and process sound and music. Essential premises of psychoacoustics, digital audio, signal processing, and music representation are explored as they apply to software design and implementation, and these concepts are put into practice in focused assignments and student-designed programming projects. The course provides basic knowledge and experience required for programming audio and music applications and for pursuing advanced study in computer audio, synthesizer design, and computer music. Ability to program in a language such as C, Java, Python, or JavaScript is required. Music 51 or equivalent computer music experience is highly recommended.
