Register for the February 14th meeting.
Our second local flavor dive of the SciTech documentary series Liquid Science will cover how technology is impacting music in “Music’s Future”. The episode explores how technology has opened new doors and may ultimately make music better than ever.
Join us on Th, 2/14 as we explore ways in which technology and the evolution of the “digital studio” are influencing the future of music and those who create it.
