Feb 20, 2007 2:05 PM
Professor, composer and sound artist Howard Sandroff will discuss and demonstrate contemporary methods of signal processing and their application in music and audio using Cycling '74 Max/MSP. Max/MSP is a graphical environment for music, audio and multimedia, which is used in film, video games and concert works.
Sandroff is currently professor of audio art with the Columbia College Department of Audio Arts and Acoustics, as well as senior lecturer in composition and director of the Computer Music Studio at the University of Chicago Department of Music. He is formerly music director and conductor of Chicago's New Art Ensemble. An expert in analog and computer-based electronic music and audio systems, Sandroff regularly tours, lectures and consults on the design of academic and commercial electronic-music systems. His concert works—written for soloists, mixed chamber ensembles and orchestra—often include live or prerecorded electronics and have been performed, recorded and broadcast throughout North, South and Central America; Europe; Asia; and Australia.
