MUTOR offers open courses and license-free teaching materials for distant and blended learning in music technology. The repository was designed to answer to the needs of bachelor and master students as well as the general public interested in questions such as “what is multimedia (in a primarily musical context)”, “how do we perceive and process music cognitively”, “what is microtonality”, “how do we synthesize new sounds”, “how do we combine sounds with images”, “how do we move sounds in space”, “how do we track the movements and gestures of performers” and many more.

This broadcast is a discussion about finding target audiences for a The Science of Music class and what motivates researchers and artists to turn to the cognition of music.
