New ASCII for PC!

I’ve released a new ASCII-thing in Impure 85! This time I’ve tried to work with code page 437, popular on the IBM PC. It has different characters than the Amiga, such as the useful block gradients: ▓ ▒ ░. The font is designed differently, so for example the / and \ don’t connect to each other. Boooo! I think I wrote a bit about the differences in this paper.

Anyway, this has been added to my MEGA ASCII PAGE where you can go and scroll into the abyss!

Two Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty-One Days Part 1

Two Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty-One Days Part 1 is a video work by Björn Bengtsson with a soundtrack by me. It’s now showing in Tokyo as part of the Sumida EXPO 2022.

“The work is a 40-minute-trance-inducing-high-speed-slideshow/video with a dark, lush soundscape by Goto80, installed in an empty nagaya (old wooden Shōwa period house) in the Kyojima neighborhood.”

> Exhibition period: October 1 – 24
> Venue: Uradana Tonari, 3-57-8 Kyojima, Sumida, Tokyo
> Opening hours: 10 am – 6 pm
