Pixelh8 becomes a Lecturer @ Suffolk New College
Today I taught my first lesson to a group of Higher National Diploma students, in the very same room I was taught music theory in fifteen years ago. There were no guitars then, no drum kits and certainly no electronic keyboards. There was a brown upright piano, with an upright man who wore a brown jumper, brown trousers and had a brown moustache. He taught me music theory and taught me well. He frowned on the fact I was going to use it to write electronic music and tried to convince me not to pursue it. Fifteen years later I have his job, teaching music in the very same room. There are guitars, and drums and electronic keyboards. There will be graphical scores, there will be electronic music, circuit bending, vintage synths and there will be noise. I have yet to find a suitable brown jumper.
It was very enjoyable and I look forward to next week.
