Ten thematic modules on acoustics, sound synthesis, interaction and musical AI, with lessons, quizzes and dozens of real interactive components, including five Max/MSP patch simulators, RNBO patches exported for the web, Web MIDI for external hardware, motion sensors and a peer-to-peer mobile controller paired via QR code.

The course PDF handouts and glossary are built into the platform. Mobile-first, offline, installable as a PWA. The laboratory remains available as an artefact of AFAM teaching innovation after the course's conclusion.
