ARTS 339 Advanced Photography 6 credits
In this course students explore photography as a means of understanding and interacting with both the world and the inner self. We will emphasize a balance of technical skills, exploration of personal vision, and development of critical thinking and vocabulary relating to photography. Advanced students will focus on developing a concise body of work independently through two self-directed longer projects. Instruction includes: use of large format cameras with a hand meter, film scanning, and strobe lighting. Students will learn to develop a portfolio as an ongoing process that requires informed and critical decision making to assemble a body of work. Collectively we will critique, analyze, give feedback on work and discuss readings that are pertinent to the production of images in contemporary times.

MUSC 221 The Principles of Music Creation 6 credits
This course focuses on both traditional notation-based approaches to composition (which involve collaboration with a performer) as well as the direct shaping of sounds in digital systems. Students will listen extensively, in many genres and traditions of music and sound, applying this critical listening to their own original work and that of their colleagues. Frequent composition assignments build fundamental skills in melodic creation and development, counterpoint, rhythmic evolution, synthesis, and production. The course culminates in a term project, a substantial original composition.
