The intent of this dissertation is to contribute to the current body of compositional knowledge, particularly in the area of sound spatialization. This dissertation consists of a portfolio of original compositions, which feature creative approaches to sound spatialization. The spatialization techniques resulted from experimentation and by expanding on existent methods. Some of the issues addressed include 1) spatialization techniques that yield results that do not exist in the natural world, 2) user-controlled spatialization, and 3) the simulation of real- world spatial influences via technology. The accompanying written commentary describes the compositional methodology of each piece, the creative spatialization technique employed in each work, and the resultant effects of each technique. All of the compositions are accessible via the included DVD-ROM.
