Living in times where a filter/plugin is considered sellout after 1 week, this is of course terribly outdated. But it’s my dear Defmon C64-tracker getting datamoshed by the click of a button. I am so cool that I don’t even need to use the plugin that everybody else uses! Surf’s up! Warning for extreme clicking!
ARTFARTS
Exhibition, Otro & Goto80
Galerie Duplex in Toulouse (France) is running an exhibition with Julien Ducourthial aka Otro. I made the music for an animated Amiga piece called Black Noises. On display until 7th of March.
See you in Slovenia!
HAIP is a festival about open source and art. I’ll play there with Raquel Meyers on the 6th of November. Hack / Act / Interact / Progress! Will also do a lecture on demoscene/chipmusic and exhibit HT Gold and Radio Dada.
Punk Potemkin
For those of you around at Malmöfestivalen August 15-22, on the last day Superdöner and Special Guests will perform a live soundtrack to the old propagandoid Russian silent movie Battleship Potemkin, whose montage work had quite an impact on movie making. And A/V propaganda. It’s free, and we promise that we will do things right enough to make it worthwhile, and wrong enough for people to see what punk is all not about! Not.
Update: shame trash mash
Hey. Things are a bit slow. Sorry for cancelling my show in Falun, I think it’s the first show I’ve ever cancelled. I had my reasons… Anyway. Just found a nice review of my gig at En Festival i 8 Bitar a while ago: “The seventh artist, GoTo80, the biggest artist of the evening, was probably the worst thing I’ve ever experienced. The only attention I could give him was an irritating look and hands over my ears. The guy was only screaming a lot and gave me a headache. The fact that his name was so big mostly just made me upset. I definitely wanted to go home when he started playing. Luckily, he was the last artist of the evening. Score: 0 of 10” / Jenny
Photo of HT Gold exhibited at the central square of Copenhagen as part of re:new. It’s mega-modified game, running straight from C64. Sorry for disturbing your otherwise standard sunny afternoon of coffee, pölse, and “true indian music” – but the datatrash cannot be stopped! More photos here and here. And by the way, there is some pretty square theoretical chip-art stuff over at chipflip nowadays. Don’t miss out!
HT Gold
If you are in Copenhagen on Saturday, you’ll have the chance to see a hardcore piece of c64 datatrash in 4 by 8 metres, made by Autoboy+me. It’s a game with improved functionality and less competition. It’s not yer usual random-glitch, but the game is still very playable although physics, graphics, sound effects, music, steering, scores, etc, are constantly changed. I am not sure where it will be shown in megasize, but there’ll probably be information over at mikrogalleriet where it will be for 1,5 week more.
