Description
Course DescriptionWelcome to The Art of Noise, a wide-ranging investigation into noise in the field of music, directly inspired by Luigi Russolo's landmark work, L'Arte dei Rumori. The course has been designed in a very detailed manner to cater to audiences from beginners and amateurs to professionals and scholars of music. In this course, you will engage in a very profound journey that reshapes one's understanding of noise, its use in music, and even its philosophical implications.What You Will LearnHistorical and Philosophical Context: You can begin by delving into the origins and further development of noise in music. From the controversial place it occupied at its birth in the dawn of the 20th century to its place in modern creations, you will lead the journey noise has had over different eras. For instance, consider the philosophical debates that pertain to noise as an art form, with close reading on theories and writings from avant-garde composers like Luigi Russolo.Recording Techniques Understanding Practical Application: It deals with processing but, besides that, the course prepares you with a basic understanding of recording techniques for noise. That is highly essential knowledge to obtain first-class raw material which further can be changed artistically by digital processing.Learn how to use digital processors: This will be one of the critical features in the practicals of the course, whereby one will learn how to use modern digital processors in noise with Ableton Live 11. You will master essential and advanced techniques using both stock plugins and selected factory plugins. Detailed tutorials will guide you through several types of equalizers, compressors, reverb, and other features, demonstrating effective manipulation and adding effects to a variety of musical scenarios.Creative Applications and Experimentation: The course also provides for putting the theory into practice with the noise processing skills that the course helps you gain to boost your musical projects. It includes several project-based exercises that encourage you to experiment with noise, working on it to provide texture, depth, and an experimental edge to your compositions.Course OutlineTheoretical Component (30%): This work supplies a systematic overview of the historic development of noise together with the philosophical grounds on which it ponders, against which practical applications in this field can be assessed and reviewed.Practical Application (70%): Hands-on exercises focused exclusively on the processing of digital noise-no recording techniques applied-will allow you to perfect the manipulation of noise and its integration into music.Who Should EnrollThis course is open to any individual who has a wider interest in music production, experimental sound design, or those on an academic pathway related to music sciences. It is structured with the idea to give the newbies full apprehension, deep insight, and innovative techniques so that even the most experienced professionals can be inspired by it.Instructor BackgroundConducted by a Music Sciences scholar and music producer specialized in noise, the course ensures tuition by an expert with keenness. The tutor is also actively involved in research and has loads of practical experience from the field. This ensures that students are confident of having a fulfilling learning experience through seamless links between theoretical appreciation and actual practice.OutcomeGraduates of The Art of Noise will take away a strong and well-rounded skill set in noise processing, a deeper appreciation of noise as an artistic and philosophical medium, and will be able to add new, creative applications of these concepts in their music or sound art projects. More importantly, this course seeks to change your way of thinking about noise, where I would like you to think of noise as not only a sound but an artistic tool for you to innovate.Let's change your perspective on noise!
