Summary

Videogames have become a $28 billion international industry, and nostalgia for the classic videogames of the 1980s is building. The first book to contain videogame-inspired art, I Am 8-Bit collects the original work of over 100 artists and celebrates videogames' Golden Age. Included are pieces from the I Am 8-Bit exhibition in Los Angeles, which drew 1,500 attendees on opening night, as well as pieces from the second exhibition scheduled for April 2006.
