# You want a degree in sampling?
... I know right? If you think that sounds cool, check out Sound
Studies at UdK Berlin. From **[Holly Herndon][1]{: target="_blank"}** to
**[Teengirl Fantasy][2]{: target="_blank"}** or **Morton Subotnick** and
**Laurie Spiegel**, a lot of electronic music we dig here at EB has its
roots in academia. Long gone are the days of "I don't give a damn about
my education" and the punk rock dropouts who where burning down their
metaphorical schools.
In 2012, where the technique of sampling is as widespread in our culture
as reading and writing, it makes perfect sense to get a theoretical
foundation in cutting and looping, the syntax of remix-culture.
At [Udk-Berlin][3]{: target="_blank"} you can chose from a wide area of
subjects: wether it's theory and history of auditive culture, audio
media design or experimental sound design. For more hands-on commercial
experience you can dive into auditive brand communication. Different
workshops will be provided to get the necessery tools and skillsets.
Like what you hear? UdK is inviting prospective students to their open
day. If you happen to have your bachelor degree in your pocket and are
interested in post graduate study, then head over to UdK on Saturday,
October 13.
