8BIT TODAY & DEATH TO MOST

Sander asked if I could answer to some questions concerning my small picture pamphlet Death to Most, particularly the pixel works in it. So, in this small interview we’re taking bit of a look back to 8bits on 80’s and how that’s related to my work these days. To whom this might not say anything, I’m quoting 8bit Today:

“8bit – is a generation of computers, mainly from the 80ties. These particular computers had strong limitations in every aspect; audio, graphics and speed of the processor were only a mere fraction of nowadays standards. Dealing with these limitations brought very authentic aesthetics.”

In other words: we were, are and will be nerds. God save the nerds.
