IAP 2025 Building Sound Lecture 6: FM Synthesis with John Chowning (inventor of FM synthesis)

We're pleased to announce that Gridspace is hosting its third course for the MIT Independent Activities Period (IAP). In past years, we've hosted lecture series on speech, language, and machine learning. This year, Gridspace will be hosting Building Sound: Sound & Speech Synthesis!
Topics include physical acoustics, various musical sound synthesis techniques, and a detailed modern deep dive into neural voice synthesis. Guest speakers include the inventor of FM synthesis, early pioneers of speech synthesis, the inventor of Guitar Hero, UA-camr Ange Yaghi, and the synth hardware designers from Noise Engineering.
