I'll be giving a talk on Tuesday about how implementation shapes the way we design audio in projects of any size. It'll feature some thought exercises that will help you set a clear vision for projects of any scale and we'll take a little detour into what how I pivoted into game audio later in life.
Hullo! Get ready for summer! We can stealth around the backroom or partake in the Star Wars event up front, otherwise let's see what everyone's been up to, or will be up to!

Smith College is having a Game Jam!
Longtime college friend of mine, Mike Prinke, was among those laid off at Epic Games: he has been fighting terminal brain cancer, and now he, his wife, and kid, have no income or health insurance.
Sharing here in hopes it can reach the right people on their behalf.

Hey friends! This will be another awkward one as we're not meeting on the first Sunday of the month, and the Quarters has another event (that we're welcome to participate in if we want) in the front room, but otherwise we'll be hanging out in the back talking about videogames!
