LAG, the league of art game composers, is a union of experimental composers that was formed in spring 2008. LAG is a collective of like-minded composers who are interested in the utilization, creation, and fusion of games and art. Members compose their own works and also collaborate for the creation or performance of each other’s works. LAG explores the different ways in which games and art can be synthesized. The games can be pre-existing and appropriated for musical endeavors, as in "Red King Snoring vs. the Octopus Knight", an electronic chess piece by Chad McKinney and Curtis McKinney. As well, wholly new games can be created, as in "Stargazing"(a real-time graphic score/game hybrid), by Cole Ingraham. Aesthetic influences are sometimes appropriated, such as the characteristic sound of the Commodore 64 sound chip. Often the game mechanics themselves are deep structural elements that inform the shape and interactive nature of the music. These games are often performed live or interacted with as installations, but are also utilized in the creation of fixed media. Active members of LAG include Cole Ingraham, Chad McKinney, Curtis McKinney, Peter Musselman, and Luke Selden.

Whoa....July 13th? There might actually be a possibility of you folks seeing me up there. An even bigger possibility if you knock the date back a little further, but I guess not, hahah
Hahah, I'll be up in San Fran in October for college..and I might be roadtripping up the coast for a weekend or so in the summer with a buddy. So there's two possibilities right there.
"How about a nice game of chess?" - WOPR. One of the best quotes from a movie villain. Do you guys cover any texas instruments songs? Something from "Utopia" would be nice. - b
