The gallery plans to guide viewers through a history of 8-bit music, its significance to media and video games of its time, and notable figures that influenced the legacy of the niched genre. In the workshop, participants will learn how modern chiptune artists create music from Game Boys and the production software LSDJ, and have the opportunity to create music of their own design. Throughout the end of the exhibit week, we will celebrate the historic and modern legacies of 8-bit music in a set of live performances produced by Norah, a seasoned chiptune artist.\r\n\r\nOur goal in developing this exhibit is to highlight 8-bit\/chiptune music as a unique form of digital art celebrated for its sound, cultural significance, and innovation. Throughout the lifespans of the original hardware supporting this music, artists often faced limitations due to hardware constraints. These difficulties led to early video game industry composers inventing new techniques and methods for music creation that have evolved over time and remain influential today.\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU to our co-sponsors and partners for your support in the creation of this event!\r\n-> U-M LSA Technology Services Digital Scholarship (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/technology-services\/services\/research-tools\/digital-scholarship.html)\r\n-> U-M Digital Studies Institute (https:\/\/www.digitalstudies.umich.edu\/)\r\n-> U-M Arts Initiative (https:\/\/arts.umich.edu\/arts-initiative)\r\n-> Neutral Zone (https:\/\/www.neutral-zone.org\/event-list\/2025\/4\/11\/free-tech-workshop-chiptune-8-bit)\r\n-> Ann Arbor District Libraries (https:\/\/aadl.org\/)\r\n-> Ypsilanti District Libraries (https:\/\/www.ypsilibrary.org\/)\r\n-> Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor (https:\/\/www.pinballpetes.org\/copy-of-east-lansing-location)\r\n-> Video Game Music Club (VGMC) (https:\/\/maizepages.umich.edu\/organization\/vgmc)\r\n-> WolvSec (https:\/\/wolvsec.org\/)\r\n-> LGBTQ+ Michigan (https:\/\/websites.umich.edu\/~lgbtqmichigan\/#)\r\n-> Ann Arbor Fighting Game Community at the University of Michigan (FGC) (https:\/\/maizepages.umich.edu\/organization\/a2fgc)", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"134668-21874693@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/134668", "building_id":"1000227", "building_name":"Shapiro Library", "campus_maps_id":"139", "room":"Clark Commons", "location_name":"Shapiro Library", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Free","Exhibition","Digital Media","Digital Culture","Video Games","Music","In Person"], "website":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/134669", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Digital Studies Institute", "group_id":"4337", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Arts Initiative", "group_id":"4583", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"WolvSec", "group_id":"4659", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"LGBTQ+ Michigan", "group_id":"4768", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/04\/event_134668_original-1.png" }, "occurrence_count":5, "first_occurrence":21874691 } , "107870-21818086": { "datetime_modified":"20240130T121550", "datetime_start":"20250409T110000", "datetime_end":"20250409T170000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-04-09", "date_end":"2025-04-09", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"17:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"A Gathering", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"A Gathering", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"Welcome.

The works on view in this exhibition, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations, race, gender, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals, as a museum, and as a society, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings, to discuss their takes, to learn, to disagree. Gather to relax, make a friend, drink a coffee, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by F\u00e9lix Zamora G\u00f3mez Irving Stenn, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities &
