In this talk, David will delve into how the reimagined soundtracks of Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster evoke emotional resonance, shape player experience, and reframe our connections to digital worlds. Whether you're a gamer, music lover or simply curious about the role of art and memory in interactive media, this lecture offers a unique perspective on the intersection of video game culture and musical aesthetics. šŸŽ§ Come for the nostalgia—stay for the insight! šŸ“ Free and open to the public.
