TL;DR: I published my (free) dissertation on implications of music-related practices discussed within chipmusic.org, and I wanted to thank you all for the amazing discussions! Here's a link to my website with the document (everything on my site is free).

Over the past couple of years I have been working on my dissertation, which explores potential implications of the music-related practices discussed within chipmusic.org. Because the data within this study was considered by my IRB as archival data, I was not able to reach out to members of the community to discuss/verify findings. However, now that the study is freely published, I wanted to finally reach out to the community to say thank you to everyone. So, thank you, everyone, for publicly engaging in discussions that demonstrate an awe-inspiring depth of knowledge on a topic that I wish more people knew about.

Although I learned a lot about chiptunes by simply reading through your discussion forum posts (which are often highly entertaining and informative), there's still a lot for me to learn about chiptune-related practices and the chipscene. In addition to saying thank you, I would like to express an interest in potentially doing follow-up studies where I interview chipmusicians across the chipscene to better understand potential implications for the field of education (broadly speaking). If that sounds interesting to you, please feel free to let me know.

Again, thank you, everyone!
