MOOC on Sound

This post is a reference page for the Experiment with Sounds MOOC.

It is not meant as a full essay or course summary. I use it mainly as a compact public note listing some of the artists, researchers, and topics that came up during the course.

Topics

• sound studies
• listening and silence
• improvisation
• field recording
• sound and architecture
• rhythm, timbre, and duration
• streaming and studio practice

People and references

• Charles Gaines
• Anna Halprin
• Beau Dick
• Brian Eno
• Scott Lindroth
• Christina Kubisch
• Alvin Lucier
• Bernhard Leitner
• Thomas Kusitzky
• Christopher DeLaurenti

This remains a compact course record rather than a finished essay.
