The Music Studios Technician will support staff and students in the Faculty of Music. Each studio has a different focus: experimental electronic music, traditional ensemble recording, and media composition.
While an undergrad at UCSC I took Tom Lehrer's Nature of Math course. A decade later I often saw him around Harvard Yard. After my appt to Oxford the college Math fellow wanted to know every detail of those fleeting memories: knowing someone who 'knew' Tom Lehrer gave him street cred. Thanks, Tom.
