Ear Candy: Video Game Music May 18, 2011

Garrick Room - Level 4

Professor James Newman, Bath Spa University, chairs a discussion on the role of music in video games: its evolution from the Commodore 64 era to the present day and its impact on popular culture.

The panelists, including composers and James Hannigan and Richard Jacques, also explore how old video game systems have been repurposed to create music.

The event features an interactive music demonstration.
