One-Day Workshop for ages 16+


Workshop offered on Friday, November 22 (PA Day) or Saturday, November 23 10 AM – 4 PM


Music and the responses it evokes in the brain and body can all be thought of as signals that vary over time. In this hands-on workshop, we will discuss how to measure and interact with these time-varying signals. Additionally, we will create our own musical interfaces using touch sensors and mobile eye-tracking glasses connected to programmable circuit boards!


Students will have the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of music cognition, digital signal processing, and computer programming from experts in the LIVELab. They will exercise creative autonomy in developing new musical interfaces and will have the opportunity to work collaboratively to form multi-instrument ensembles.
