The Sound Design Project is an arts integration program that explores a specific medium: sound. Chicago Arts Partnerships in Education collaborated with sound artist Lou Mallozzi, SAIC professor and Founder of Experimental Sound Studio, to implement this three-year investigation into the intersection of experimental sound arts and music pedagogy, and their impact on academic learning.
