The central subject of the module is the design of sounds, visuals and all related creative and technical areas.

Various software for audio and visual production is used (e.g. processing, open frameworks, Unity, Puredata, Max / MSP).
The idea here is experimenting with e.g. :
- techniques and methods for sound synthesis
- video and sound design
- Interaction techniques with video, sound or light installations.

Students develop a creative and technical installation or performance during the semester. The kind and technology of the installation used are freely selectable. The presentation of the project work at the end of the semester is basis for the grade.

Various creative design techniques can be used to implement the project work, for example:
- Network technology for communication between several computers (e.g. OSC, Midi)
- Interactive design with the computer (e.g. Kinect or various game controllers)
- Surround sound or light installation

For the creative, experimental work, a surround music system (consisting of 10 room loudspeakers) and various mini computers (e.g. Raspberry Pi) for sound and video installations are available.

Knowledge of composition or video production is not required.
