Music, Sound & Environment

ARTS-2570

This course addresses relationships among society, culture, the more-than-human world, and the environment. We explore the diverse and interconnected ways in which contemporary composers, popular musicians, sound artists, and global music practices draw on natural and built environments to comment on current environmental and energy issues, articulate relationships among the arts, humanities and science and technology studies, represent past, present and future environments, and engage in social activism. In this course music is approached as artistic expression as well as a form of knowledge that can heighten our sensitivity and awareness of the environment, incorporating reading and writing assignments, individual and group creative projects.
