[game_edu] Game sound/music documentary

[Mark Grimshaw]

Of interest to some of you:

Karen Collins, who has published a number of books on video game sound, is
putting together a new book and documentary film about the history of game
sound, from the Victorian arcades through to today. One of the goals of
the project is to collect and document material such as code, fanzine
reviews, music scores,  and so on from the people she interviews, which
she intends to digitize with the help of a librarian/archivist, and make
available to other researchers. She¹ll also be gathering historical
documents relating to games more generally (not just sound/music) and
making these available as well.  She asked me to help spread the word as
the project currently requires a little support, and so the film team has
launched a kickstarter:http://bit.ly/KickBeep
