In this introductory course you will examine sound and hearing in the media context. Theories of sound and hearing will be discussed and the role of sound in media investigated, as you examine historical, technical, cultural, social and material perspectives. Natural and man-made soundscapes and the impact of new technology on sound reproduction, noise reduction and sound dissemination will be examined through the lens of sound as a cultural artifact. You will gain hands-on experience in recording and editing sound for various media applications including sound for image, to facilitate an understanding of the aesthetics of sound in media.
