My name is Sinan, I am a Senior Environmental Science Major in CALS. I have always loved making music. I play saxophone and love Jazz and Hip-Hop but am very open minded about all other types of music. I took this class to get a better understanding of DAW software, mixing, mastering, and making better quality music. I have a little experience producing and recording. I have been slowly setting up a home studio for the last few years. However, I still need a lot more knowledge and I am excited to learn in this class. I hope to learn a lot for my peers and also do a lot of collaboration. Making music with people/friends is my favorite thing.

Hi everyone! I’m Alisa and I am a senior Chemistry & Chemical Biology major in A&S college. I have been participating in marching band since high school, and I currently play the piccolo in Cornell Big Red Marching Band. I play the flute, and a little bit of harmonica and ocarina as well.

I’m taking this course to explore computer music, which I have little to no prior experience in. I’m really interested in learning about how to combine sounds to create a musical piece. I’m open for collaboration and I look forward to meeting you all!

Hi everyone! My name is Tong Liu and I am a senior majoring in Economics. I played piano growing up and also played the clarinet in high school. I enjoy a wide variety of music, especially hip-hop and EDM. I’m hoping to learn more about making music with computers and look forward to creating some cool projects this semester.

Hi everyone,

My name is Sady and I’m a senior in the ILR School. My father was a music producer and composer back in Colombia before coming to South Florida, and I inherited his passion for music. I’ve self-taught myself how to play various instruments: guitar, piano, bass and drums.

Recently, I’ve been working on composing my own songs. I hope that the learning from this course will allow me to bring some of my songs to life.

Like the title says, my name is Olivia Dawd and I’m a senior studying Computer Science. I’ve always been interested in music and have been playing music since 5th grade. I first started off on the saxophone, but then got more interested in playing a drum set and bass more recently to play along with my favorite rock tunes. I’ve more recently got into composing my own music and mixing and mastering. I’m taking this class because I’m really interested in learning more about music and how to use computers to make cool sounds!

Hi everyone! I’m Jonathan, a senior Human Development major. I’ve been singing in the Cornell Glee Club since my freshman fall, know a little violin, and have dabbled in composing.

I’m taking this course to explore composition, especially in the intersection between music and technology. I’m also a writer/director, so I’m interested in film scoring. I’m open to collaborating with others, and looking forward to class!

Hi! My name’s Joy Hubbard and I’m a senior English & psychology double major from San Diego. I’m extremely passionate about music, and I’ve recently become interested in music production so when I heard about this class I decided right away that it was the class for me. I play drums a little bit, but I’m still a beginner who is hoping to improve (once I have more frequent access to a kit). I enjoy all sorts of music, especially punk, indie rock, and some subgenres of EDM. I’m looking forward to this class and potentially working with some of you.

Hi! My name is Thaya Psyhojos, and I am a senior in the ILR School. I am involved in the concert scene at Cornell as a member of Cornell Concert Commission. While I mainly play my acoustic electric guitar, I also play the piano rather poorly and learned a few songs on ukulele over the summer, but I am excited to learn about the digital production side of things.

Hi everyone!

I’m Claire, a junior studying electrical and computer engineering.  I took piano lessons for years as a kid, and though I hated practicing, I have always and still enjoy tinkering around on a keyboard.  I took an intro music theory in the music department last semester to gain a deeper understanding of music.  I’ve wanted to take this class since I heard about it freshman year, so I’m so excited to work with you all!

Hello everyone,

My name is David Karabinos and I’m a senior in the College of Arts and Sciences double majoring in Computer Science and Statistics. I’ve played a few different instruments in the past: electric guitar, cello, and piano. Over the more recent years of my life however, things have gotten in the way of me continuing my practice of music, but I hope that through this class, I can incorporate what I’ve learned here at Cornell with music, a previous passion of mine.
