Sloths, Sex and Pirates
Our new C64-demo Dansain was presented at the Datastorm copy party last weekend. It's a pirate story told in text graphics, tightly integrated with the audio. There's explosions and sloths, boats and bars, sex and dancing - everything you need! For now there's no video, but I'll post it soon enough.
It received some very good criticism at the party. Good to get applauses and screams from an audience that appreciates the effort and the format. Quite different to pop/art where results & concept is so dominant.
On the other hand, the aesthetic conservatism of the scene is not exactly fresh, lol. But I guess it's what keeps it together. All the way to its death! Oh well, enjoy the demo. It was very much inspired by Lennart Hellsing.
Mind the Volcano
"Mind the Volcano is a text-based TV-performance with a typewriter logic. All the visuals consist of text characters, based on words and images from books. The music is composed live in a text-based software, shown as a part of the visual story. Words, images and music work closely together."
This is likely the first ever performance with remote controlled teletext visuals. Right? Not to mention all of the fantastic typewriter-style PETSCII animations. Raquel Meyers, yup yup! And then me doing lots of live music - sometimes even completely from scratch. Oh boy!
New Video!
Yesh yesh! Raquel Meyers made this video, and then I made the sounds for it. It was released in the magazine Det Grymma Svärdet 13/14.
Wiiiii! Uiuiuiui!

We were invited by Transmediale to make a new version of our fax performance (also check the book). This time we will do it an office setting, working more with e.g stamps & typewriters. -> MEMOBLAST!
