GNV Tour + #DataPlusMusic: The Sound of Games

August 26, 2022

Welcome back!

On our last stop on the tour, we joined Sarah Bartlett's #IronQuest project to relive some Nostalgic Games. For our next challenge, we're tuning into Sean Miller's #DataPlusMusic to listen to The Sound of Games.

We’re challenging you to visualise your favourite games inspired music and sounds, be it the soundtrack, famous voice actors or the most challenging tracks in Heardle.

This project focuses a monthly theme that you can participate to challenge either data preparation, data visualization or visual design. Existing datasets on video games will be readily available and comes with difficulty scales to help those newer or with limited time to practice.
