The GSO plays classical arrangements of music and scores from popular video games; no tinny Pac-Man Fever jingles here, rather music that brings to life the richness and breadth of the complex auditory soundscapes surrounding contemporary games like Halo, World of Warcraft, and Final Fantasy.<\/p>\n<p>The GSO is composed of students from UMD as well as the surrounding community. Join us for a discussion and samples of their unique performances with music director CHRIS APPLE, conductor and arranger GREG COX, and president JARRED YOUNG.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, including photos and recordings of their music, visit the GSO at http:\/\/umd.gamersymphony.org\/.<\/p>\n<p>Coming up @MITH: 2\/19, there is no talk. 2\/26, Doug Eyman (George Mason), &#8220;Play and Pedagogy: An Ecological Framework for Teaching Writing with Video Games.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>View MITH&#8217;s complete spring Digital Dialogues schedule: http:\/\/www.mith2.umd.edu\/programs\/mith_speakers_spring_2008.pdf<\/p>\n<p>All talks free and open to the public!<\/p>\n<p>Contact: Neil Fraistat, Director, MITH (www.mith.umd.edu, &#x6d;&#105;t&#x68;&#64;u&#x6d;&#100;&#46;&#x65;&#100;u, 5-8927).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A MITH Digital Dialogue Tuesday, February 12, 12:30-1:45 MITH Conference Room, McKeldin Library B0135 The Gamer Symphony Orchestra with CHRIS APPLE, GREG COX, and JARRED [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[68],"tags":[108],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>2\/12 MITH Digital Dialogue: The Gamer Symphony Orchestra &ndash;
