The Art of Video Games at the Hudson River Museum (and Riverama, too!)

Mikro attended a terrific program on the art of the video game at the Hudon River Museum. Our educator, Emily, was wonderful and really got the kids thinking about how state of the art depended on state of the technology: how the amount of memory and available number of pixels impacted game design over the past 40 plus years. Very interesting. And watching my kid play Pacman was priceless!

Afterwards, we also enjoyed a self guided tour of the museum's Riverama exhibit.
