Hey Guys/Gals.
I know there were a bunch of US northwesterners on here in the past. UO offers a graduate degree in "Intermedia Music Technology" that interests me.
I was wondering if anyone had any input into this or other similar programs, or about UO in general....

About me
I make a lot of music, but have rarely finished tracks lately. I am married with 2 kids. I used to work at harman music group on lexicon reverb units, now I work as an acoustical consultant in Santa Monica. I'm designing a guitar-shaped synth (still). I circuit bend. I played in an experimental music group with a local music professor at BYU a few years back. I would like to get something similar going (experimental improv music) in LA. Drop me a line about that if you like.

I can't speak to that specific program, but my limited experience with some professors there has not been favorable. U of O is heavily biased towards the sports programs, but by most accounts it's a decent school, academically speaking.
not sure about your background, but you may want to check into CCRMA @ Stanford's music school or UCSD has an interdisciplinary music degree that's probably similar to what you're looking for.

don't know anything about the music program there. my advice would be to go visit.
i do know they have a good theater/dance/technical lighting design type programs there. +1 on the UCSD recommendation. there's also a place in montreal that skiptracer/nagrom attends. yes, in the early 90s.
 I imagine it's changed quite a bit, although the same crazy dood who ran the e-music labs (Jeffrey Stolet) is still there. He's great. I got a lot out of working with them.Thanks for the input, erebody. We will probably go visit in the next few months. My wife is finishing her first year in February as a nurse at Glendale Adventist in Socal, after which she will be able to get a job up there. Housing costs are looking so refreshing after struggling for so long to live and work in LA, so that's a huge plus for Oregon in general......
