I Presented a Paper and a Piece at ICMC2008

I presented today at the 2008 International Computer Music Conference. The topic of my paper was "Emulation and Authenticity: Chiptune in the Early Twenty-first Century". It is quite a general paper, aimed at a general audience (ie. people that may or may not have heard of chipmusic before).

I also had a piece in this year's ICMC2008 - "Eleven Point Six Milliseconds", which is also known as "The Emphasis on Small Things" from my Automaton EP.
