CCMIX
Centre de Creation Musicale Iannis Xenakis
SUMMER INTENSIVE IN ELECTRO-ACOUSTIC MUSIC
July 2nd - July 27th, 2001
CCMIX, the electro-acoustic studios of Iannis Xenakis, offers a month-long
intensive course in electronic music and composition for American college
students. The course takes place at CCMIX studios in Alfortville (Paris),
France. Group class sessions and private creative work in the studios are
the heart of this program. Classes will be taught by Gerard Pape
(Director/composer, CCMIX, Columbia, U of Michigan, Ann Arbor), Curtis
Roads (U Cal, Santa Barbara /CREATE), composer/software designer), Joel
Chadabe (President, Electronic Music Foundation, composer, historian) and
Sylviane Sapir (software design MARS workstation). Assistance in private
studio work will be provided. All classes and studio sessions conducted in
English. CCMIX maintains UPIC, MARS and Pro-Tools studios. The UPIC is
the revolutionary graphic composition/synthesis system created by Iannis
Xenakis. Recent studio acquisitions include Giuseppi Di Giugno's MARS
workstation, SuperCollider and KYMA. CCMIX is supported in part by the
French Ministry of Culture and Communication and by the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs.
Field trips will be provided to observe other aspects of the French and
European electronic music scene. In past years these have included Pierre
Schaeffer's Groupe de Recherches Musicales (GRM) at Radio France; IRCAM at
the Pompidou Centre; a Stockhausen electronic music performance in
Amsterdam, and other studio groups or individuals working at the classic or
cutting edge.
Students will be housed in the heart of the Parisian Left Bank. All Paris
attractions are within walking distance of the dorm located adjacent to the
Luxembourg Palace.
Class enrollment is limited.
Consider a creative experience in Paris for 2001!
