Welcome to Physics & Music

PHYS C21 / L&S 70W Spring 2012

Welcome to Physics and Music 2012!

1/26: The class is moving! Starting Monday, Jan. 30, the class is moving to 1 LeConte!

Do you have more questions that you would like physics and music to answer over the course of the semester? Click here to view the collected questions so far, and contact us if you have more!

Homework update: There was an inconsistency in the info page and homework regarding the deadline for homework submissions. The correct deadline is 12:00 PM on the date of the lecture. Due to the confusion, all assignments will be considered on-time this week only.

1/25: The sign-in sheet will be unavailable starting next Monday (1/30/12). Attendance will be based solely on your clickers! Also, for those being added to the course, the "add" list is still being processed.

1/23: Don't forget to plan for the Exploratorium trip on April 7th. Extra credit will be given for class participation!

Week 2 Seating Chart is here! :)

1/22: A fellow student has found a very interesting video describing a musical composition created by assigning each planet (and Pluto) a repeating note. I would suggest taking a look now and midsemester to see how many concepts you have learned!

Our class uses the i>clicker technology. You will be responsible for bringing your clicker in every day to class. Clickers may be purchased from the bookstore. If another class requires an i>clicker, you may use the same device for both classes. To register your clicker please go to i>clicker's registration website. The form will request your name, student ID (use your 8-digit ID on the front of your Cal ID card) and your remote ID (this is located on the back of your i>clicker below the barcode). Once submited you will be registered with i>clicker, but you won't be in our system until you use your clicker in class.

All incoming students must complete a survey. Please fill it out even if you are on the waitlist.
