Goto80 + Lukas Nystrand – 080809
Not that this is such an intricate thing, but here it is anyway. C64. 808. Microphone. FX. BOSS distortion! 24 minutes. Noise! Defmon! Data! Beer! Lukas managed to fuck up defmon to a DEATH SCREEN. Hooray!
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!

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.
