GADA #GameSoundCon 2023 Speaker Stipend recipient Joseph Chang is completing his Doctor of Music Arts at McGill University. How has GADA impacted his #GameAudio journey? 🎧
“I am deeply grateful to the Game Audio Diversity Alliance for awarding me the speaker stipend to present at GameSoundCon 2023. This scholarship had a significant impact on my career by supporting my first presentation at a professional conference.
The scholars and industry professionals I met at GameSoundCon opened the door to further opportunities, including presentations at the North American Conference on Video Game Music and the upcoming Ludo 2025 conference, where I will share my research with European video game music scholars. I am currently developing both my performance and compositional practices to deepen my understanding of the industry and, ultimately, to contribute meaningful music to it. I remain sincerely grateful for the support I received through GADA—it has been instrumental in my growth as a researcher and artist.”
