Video of the Textmode A/V Jam
The video of the performance yesterday, made with two C64s. I make music from scratch (no sounds or sequences prepaired) and add effects with a delay pedal. The music software is shown on the screen, and Raquel Meyers mixes it together with her typed visuals. Everything is in PETSCII. Thanks to Geraldine Juárez for filming. Dataslöjd power!
The music basically goes from ambient to acid and broken beats (?) to noise. As in any jam, some parts are pretty bad but in general I'm quite satisfied.
The performance was part of Simultáneo in Mexico.
Micomonocon
Micomonocon is a music game where monkeys try to play human acid pop. Set in a luxurious text mode environment, your mission is to prevent chaos and promote business. Do you have what it takes to be a top monkey?
Made by Raquel Meyers, Jens Nirme and Goto80 2013 for LA Game Space. Featured in Experimental Game Pack 01 along with indie game heroes such as Keita Takahashi (Katamari Damacy), Cactus (Hotline Miami), Chris Osborn (Bit.Trip series), Jeremy Bailey, Jeremy Douglass, Tracer & Minusbaby, Party Time! Hexcellent, and many more.
Micomonocon runs on Windows, Mac and Linux and requires Java. It's likely the best way to practice your secretary skills and prevent monkey acid at the same time.

Typewriter Week at Text-Mode
It's typwriter week at text-mode.tumblr.com and you won't wanna miss this one. We'll post our characteristic mix of old/new and classy/trashy that we collect from countless books and sites. So far we've done 1512 posts, including plenty of typewriter art. We're worse than the NSA, ffs.
Data Klubb – Free Beer For Personal Data!
When the Piratbyrån-book was published, F.A.T also did the Data Klubb for which I submitted some personal data and filmed some. Also check out the great teletext stuff tele-F.A.T. Good stuff by Geraldine, Raquel and bigup2dance!
A Book About Piratbyrån
Piratbyrån was a loosely organized group that exploded the discussion and practice of copyright in the 00s. Now there is a book about them, which was launched last weekend in in Copenhagen. It presents fragments of their activities, such as The Pirate Bay, the Kopimi "license" and 100000 other things.
I'm happy to be included in the book, since I performed at some of their parties like the Spectrial. The book was designed by Raquel Meyers and you can read more about the book at her site.
