Live Electronic Music Performance: Music and the Body

This class will explore how to create live electronic music as a group. Participation in the Princeton Laptop Orchestra will be part of the course, and students will also study readings and performance documentation of live electronic music. This particular instance of the class will focus on electronic music and the body, looking at how dance can interact with music, as well as techniques like somatic sensing and gesture-to-sound mapping. Students will create their own pieces for the class to play for a final performance.
