[microsound] degrees in sound art

[Eric Leonardson]

Hi Justin, Erik, et al.

The Sound department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago 
offers an MFA degree. Lou Mallozzi  isn't in charge of the program, but 
his effort in creating a genuine sonic arts curriculum has made a last 
impact.

Nicolas Collins and Shawn Decker have been trading off on the heading 
the department. I teach there, too. All of us faculty have a shared role 
in shaping the curriculum. The number of courses, faculty, and students 
has consistently expanded since the 1990s. (The department began in the 
early 70s.) If I recall correctly, our MFA program in sound began in 2004.

Very soon we'll have an up-to-date, functioning website for the 
department that will surpass this (low-functioning) page:

Hey Justin, was that weekly radio program you listened to in Chicago 
called "something else"?

If so, that was, and still is hosted by Philip von Zweck, on Sunday 
nights on WLUW 88.7 FM <http://www.wluw.org>, since 1995.

Best regards,
Eric
