Introduction to Sound Synthesis and SuperCollider

by Thor Magnusson (ixi audio).

This seminar will cover the basics of realtime sound synthesis and introduce 
participants to SuperCollider. Attendees will be acquainted with basic sound 
generators and processors (oscillators, noise generators, filters, delays) as 
well as with synthesis techniques such as additive and substractive synthesis 
and amplitude or frequency modulation. This knowledge will then be used to 
build synths able to be controlled programatically, by means of graphical user 
interfaces or using OpenSoundControl.

Thor Magnusson works in the fields of music and generative art. He teaches at 
the Faculty of Arts and Media in the University of Brighton, works at the 
Department of Informatics at the University of Sussex and is also part of the 
Creative Systems Lab. He is also a co-founder and member of ixi audio and as 
part of this collective he develops audio software and systems for generative 
composition.
