Ever think about music in video game ports, rereleases, and remakes? My final guest in my #ludomusicology course @StetsonU, the incredible @BardicKnowledge, led a wonderful discussion with my students! Thanks for enriching the lives of my students!

Topic theory. Silent film. Death modules. Batman: Arkham. That's the awesome conversation we had in my #ludomusicology class at @StetsonU with Dr. @WilliamRAyers who visited from @UCF! Thanks for engaging my students in an incredible discussion on music, media, and video games!

Stellar visit to my #ludomusicology class at @StetsonU by the always excellent @Musicologess! We discussed her chapter on exoticism in video game music (in Cleopatra no Ma Takara). Thanks for fostering an environment for critical thinking and engagement with my students!

An excellent visit to my #ludomusicology class at @StetsonU by Dr. Thomas Yee. It was an engaging discussion of his research and how video game music #vgm represents identities and cultures in various ways! I 💕 these opportunities for discourse between scholars and my students!

Crowdsourcing help: Aural Training capacity enrollment per section. Not # of students enrolled in a section, but the cap on that section. This information is often internal and difficult to find. If you're willing, just some numbers. Approximations are fine. 1/3 Questions below

1. What is your typical cap on a section of aural training? 2. How many sections of aural training do you typically have? (per level or total is fine). 3. What's your current (or average) # of undergraduate music majors at your institution? 2/3

4. If you're willing: what's your institution? 5. Anything else you want to share about AT enrollment/caps? Also fine if nothing. Thanks for your help with this! 3/3

A great afternoon talking to @kate_galloway and her class at @RPI_HASS! A wonderful conversation with insightful students. Thrilled to be invited to talk about my forthcoming chapter, "Playing with American Folk Music, Supernatural Encounters, and Perspectives on Death."

An absolutely stellar visit by @musicillogical to my video game music/sounds course at @StetsonU. We discussed music, genre, and RPGs. Thanks for enriching my students with great conversation and ways to think critically about #vgm and #GameAudio. Pedagogy in #ludomusicology

COVID round 2. I was so careful for two years. Then I got this thing in October and again right now. Definitely symptomatic but so far doesn't seem quite as severe as last time. The worst part is that it's disrupted my whole routine and any attempts to stay on top of my work.

Wonderful work that #nacvgm did with their conference this year! They have continued providing an accessible hybrid conference, while many of the other orgs have abandoned these equitable measures. Great presentations and performances, and thanks to the staff for a lovely event!

I'm still floating (& recovering) from an incredible #NACVGM 10 experience. More on that soon. You need to keep the #ludomusicology conversation going and prep for #Ludo2023 and other #vgm events! Keep your eyes peeled for info! @Ludomusicology @SSSMG_ ludomusicology.org/

I've really been floored by the incredible scholarship and discussions on the first day of the 10th North American Conference on Video Game Music! #NACVGM. I'm so grateful for this community, and that we could offer this hybrid conference at @StetsonU.

Managed to work around the time difference to (very much) enjoy Session 3 of #NACVGM on Gender and Sexuality Looking at the Past - lovely people and top-tier presentations that I will totally be revisiting for future projects 👏

If I think of the number of emails as my score for #NACVGM local arrangements and planning, I'm winning. 🎮
