Final Assignment

Communication Technology: MIDI

Hello everyone,

For my final project, I decided to make a short-form podcast on the history and impact of Musical Instrument Digital Interface. I recognize that sometimes the embed video does not load completely so I have added a link to the video on Google Drive here: 

The History and Impact of MIDI

 

Below I have attached all my references as well as some videos on how MIDI works since I did not touch on that aspect during the podcast.
