The course provides a basic introduction to electroacoustic music. From the beginnings of the first electronic sound generators (theremin) to the digital sound processing tools (VST's) used in audio studios. The most important production and mastering tools are presented and applied to examples. The latest visualization tools offer the possibility of displaying sounds in three dimensions and understanding them more fundamentally. All further transformations can be understood in this way. The basic setting of a synthesizer is set up in an interactive programming environment. Producing your own music and listening to extraordinary music will broaden your musical horizon.
