Level Up!

Ever since the 1980's, the world of video games has sparked and evolved to become a cultural phenomena that is now plugged into entertainment, business, and even sports. Take a ride on this week's #PermanentWaves as we flow through a brief history of gaming and explore various aspects of the phenomena from Ottawa's own "B.C.'s Quest for Tires" to the House of Targ and plenty of wicked awesome music to give you the experience to level up! If you are an Ottawa-based artist and are interested in having your music on the show, please pass me a message via Facebook or Twitter! Also please include any influences/inspirations, particularly 80's artists if applicable. :) F: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Permanent-Waves-CKCU/881582531909028?fref=ts T: https://www.twitter.com/PermaWavesCKCU References http://ottawarickshaws.ca/6-video-game-arcades-in-ottawa/ http://www.ottawacitizen.com/business/Landfill+search+1980s+video+games+hold+without+waste+excavation+plan/9641890/story.html http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/canadian-traditions-hockey-double-doubles-and-video-games-1.772294 http://jumbovideo.com/hr/default.aspx http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/the-evolution-of-video-games-in-canada-1.914304 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artech_Digital_Entertainment http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/a-missed-opportunity-1.938438 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NABU_Network http://www.ottawashowbox.com/2015/04/new-music-odyssey-by-the-reverb-syndicate/ http://ottawacitizen.com/news/meet-ottawas-new-pinball-wizard
