AUDI 102 Introduction to Audio This course provides an overview of the world of sound and audio in its various manifestations, including music, communications, sound in linear and non-linear media, sound art, and sonification. It introduces students to basic concepts and terminology related to sound, audio, and audio equipment and systems, but it is not a theory course. Rather, the course examines aspects of our sonic world through the lenses of audio production, live sound reinforcement, and acoustics, constructing a survey of practices and trends, practitioners, and examples; of history, context, and politics; and of art and aesthetics. Along the way it challenges students to examine and open themselves to difference ways of listening. This course is open to all majors.
