Very, very nice... Darkus kickin' his unique style as ever, and Markus... Well, I have never seen a single colly from him before, did you ? His style is strange, but perhaps you notice that the letters have very fine proportions. Ok, they look quite unusual for ascii art, but they have some similarity to graffiti writing, especially the K's... This fact makes this style even more sympathic to me. Well, Markus, can we expect more ascii from you in the future ? The design is quite nice, not very inordinary, but solid and good-looking... All in all one of the nicest collies of the month ! ----------// next colly //--- - - - - Azki colly by k0RE called RHYTHM OF LIFE sCALE: o1 o5 1o [ · · · · · · · · · · ] zERO pOiNTS ! My hairs nearly stood up on my head as i viewed this 'colly'... The 'style' of Twister is 99% a rip on Tango's style ! well, perhaps not every letter is ripped, but the kind of setting the letters and starting/ending a logo is absolutely the same as Tango's. Well that is more than obvious. It reallyx hurts to see like ascii artists have no own ideas how to build a logo. Well, Twister, say something ! Come on try to show me that this style is yours !? The style of Cnr, the co-op partner of Twister in this colly, is probably his own, but ehhhmm quite boring..! the design is absolutely boring, instead of preface, contents etc the two 'artists' put some polish poems in the colly. Ok, under normal circumstances there would be one-two points from me, but Twister's style smells like RIPPED ! And this spoils the within boring colly. ----------// next colly //--- - - - - __ :-----------------------------: __ _\ || || /_ | || pHunk & aRcade pResents || | sCALE: _|_ ||_ ¯ ¯ ¯ _|| _|_ \_ __ d O n ' t s C r e a m __ _/ o1 o5 1o | || ¯ ¯ || | [ x x x x x x x x · · ] |__ || by vOlatile and dEzibel || __| /_|| ¯ ¯ ||_\ eiGHT pOiNTS ! :-----------------( dz\a! )---: March'99 is the month of co-ops, eh ? This time Dezibel and Volatile. Dezibel is THE master of design, he already showed that in co-op projects like 'Lassie - The Killer Collie' with Mortimer and Acorn. He simply rocks with his '¼'-design... Also his letter style is getting better and better. I am sure that in one-two years, if there will still be ascii, Dezibel will have the status of the second Mogue...! Volatile did also pretty work on hius letters. But Vola dear why do you do file description logos that are longer than 45 lines ? Have you never called boards ? Tell me, who needs a desc that is 50 lines or longer ?! Well i talked to Volatile on IRC and he stated that he have done this descs just for fun and he gives a fuck if they will be used or not... Ok man but than these are no descs but simple logos ! Vola your style is nice but if you want to see your styles flying from board to board you must do descs so everyone can use them ! This masterpiece of colly would earn full 9 points but the fact of these 'wrong' descs allow me to give 'only' 8... But: keep on good work ! ----------// next colly //--- - - - - _______ _______ ________ ___\ _/__ __\ __/_ _\ _ /_ | \___ | __| _ | ·--\_________!----\_____!-----/____! sCALE: s.a.t.i.v.e m.e.a zbr!s3a ------------------------------------ o1 o5 1o construction kit 01 [ x x x x x · · · · · ] sative mea proudly presents azzaro [the man who made too much] fiVE pOiNTS ! ------------------------------------ Hmmmm... I don't know... One one hand, it's a quite nice idea to do style alphabets. (Although this idea is not new, some pc ansi artists did this already in 1995). One the other hand, it is the start of the death of amiga ascii. If every artist do this, there will be no need in future collies; every artist will do one colly with his style, and no further collies filled with requests will be needed. This vision horrifies me. This is no way ! But, i think, just now is no reason to worry. No one will use such construction kits to build logos, i think and hope... But because some of these styles are quite nice, this colly will get its five points. ----------// next colly //--- - - - - · _________ : _ ___( / . ________ `______/________/ \ sCALE: _ ___________\ / \________ .d w a r f.\________/\__________/ __\ o1 o5 1o .

The artist claims this to be his fourth colly... I must confess that i never heard of a Dwarf before he asked me for some guest logos some time before this colly was released. Mhhh... The colly is nicer as some other newbie collies... But I absolutely can not accord to the style of the letters sorry... Hehe I cant explain what I dislike on this letters, but there is something about proportions and readability. Sorry only two points. But Drawf please dont get dismotivated ! I'm expecting more in the future ! But please overthink your style... ----------// next colly //--- - - - - conclusion at the same.... time commencement......... by krs/linear............ sCALE: o1 o5 1o [ x x x x x x x · · · ] sEVEN pOiNTS ! I think Krs is the best polish ascii styler of today... If someone still says that polish ascii sucks in general he should look at this colly. Well hehe the polish asciiers alvays loved some very strange colly building styles like doing crypted collys etc... This colly should be viewed backwards, from the end of file to the start. Not very original idea, and in my opinion it also sucks because it's not very comfortable to view. But the letter style of Krs is really GREAT ! Really ! Very nice logo design, proportional correct, readble but still styled as hell letters... Hehe okee.. Another 'sucking' factor are the guest logos: they all suck big time hehe ;) Not comparable to the artist's style... Whoah seven points ! Respect ! It's the style which's kickin' up the points ! ps: Hey Krs why not use a Linear diz !??!?! Forgotten ? ----------// next colly //--- - - - - _ . l i n e a r . _____ \\ .______. ____ \ | \\| _ |___\__ )|___| __ \\ \____|____l/__|____ __ sCALE: \ \__\ Bd!/La! \___\ / | | o1 o5 1o | luk give you today 11th | [ x x x x x · · · · · ] | ascii colly called | | [ c o l d c u t ] | fiVE pOiNTS ! | | | klimatt design + versEs | | [ peer/phase truce ] | | | | linear production'1999 | |___________________________| Luk seems to have worked hard on his letters in the past months... Nice, nice ! Although there are still some, in my opinion illogical, parts in his style alphabet, but all in all the logos are quite nice, the iff2ascii letters are really nice ! The colly design seems to be also quite ok, its a pitty that i cant read the polish texts... All in all a nice production, but it still can't reach the level of Krs, whose skills, i think, are now the quality level of polish ascii to compete with the west-european styles. Five points. ----------// next colly //--- - - - - /\_ / / sCALE: __ _/__/ /\ / _/__/ _______________________ / / \/ / \_ o1 o5 1o / hard knock life [ x x x x x x x x · · ] ____________________________________________ eiGHT pOiNTS ! For me, it was definitively the biggest ascii surprise of the month... Taxi, the author of this collection, is one of the last 'old' ones, with a really great style. Such a great style is a seldom nowadays... Ok there is strictly no colly design, and the colly is extremely short, but this great style lets every asciier's heart beat faster ! If this colly was a little bit bigger and had some design i would give it _full_ ten points. ps: this was a guest release, Taxi is _no_ member of Phunk Ascii ! Well, there was also a colly from me this month, a!-diz2.txt, but i won't review it eheheh...;) Check it yourself ! ------\ 2 \----------\ i n t e r v i e w \--- - - - - - dip/a! = diPSWiTCH\aRCADE!^1oo% / nD = nEURODANCER\1oo% / dip/a!: How long are you in "scene" and how long are you doing ascii ? nD: I started with the Amiga 1987. My first "scene" contact was in... hmmm, 1989, when I joined "Venom" as a musician. Before that, I've never been in any group except some selfmade bunch o' lamers. :) Ascii is one part of the stuff I do since... hmmm... my first contact with the modem scene, I think that was 1992. I saw the board logos and stuff at a friend's who was pretty active calling around (1600 DM in his first month - grin), and I really liked it. Just to satisfy my very own interest, I started doing a logo for the BBS my pal spent a lot of time on, Kiwi's "Digital Implosion". The logo was fantastic, brilliant, gorgeos, wonderful (of course, haha) - and too big. :) You know, back in these days people barely knew that they could use more that 80x24 terminal emulation on their Amiga... :) my friend himself used to call BBS' with a 4 color terminal, using the standard 4 Amiga WB 2.x colors (grey/white/black/blue)... hoho. :) dip/a!: How did you get into the computer scene in general and why you started doing ascii ? nD: Uhmm... shit... isn't this nearly the same as question #1? :) Well, I "really" started doing Ascii when I was in Abyss. I did "Abyss" logos and File_ID.diz stuff for this group (I was a co-founder of Abyss, don't let yourself be fooled by texts other guys whose handle starts with "P" wrote for some disk mag), mainly as a front-end for the packs we did (well, the "Abyss presents blabla" you know until the menu was loaded from disk), and of course for trading. Skindiver (one of the very active swappers in Abyss) was in an Ascii group (called "Scontrax") as well, long before I myself did Ascii with the goal in mind to actually see my logos *used* :) - the logos weren't appreciated very much by many of the "new" members (even though two years after I *left* Abyss I found them using my logos, then, pretty crazy). I started my own Ascii group, as a side-project of Abyss first, together with Michael aka "Dreamer" and soon after Peter aka "Aerosoul" - that was the birth of 1oo%. dip/a!: How many collies did you release till now ? nD: Not many... if you count the coloured and IBM-Ansi packs in, its only 12 collections over all the years. I'm still mainly a musician with whole of my heart, and I had the most requests for my IBM-Ansi stuff, and those requests came from Amiga sysops who used IBM screens in their BBS', pretty strange... :) dip/a!: Everybody knows the 1oo% clique... Tell us about 1oo% in general ! What were the aims of 1oo%, when and how it began, why it is so quite around 1oo% nowadays ? nD: As I already said, 1oo% was initially the result of Dreamers and my own Ascii activities. That was 1995. However, soon after we also started doing doors for our beloved CNet BBS program, and 1oo% became more and more a group concentrating on that goal. Aerosoul was never really active in 1oo%, it was mostly me doing the Ascii/Ansi stuff. I tried to re-activate Skindiver/ex-Scontrax after he finished his military service, but he wasn't really that much interested in Ascii anymore as he went the Intel way. When Hawkwind joined we thought it might give the Ascii branch of 1oo% a better output, but he's a lazy bastard just like the rest of us. Besides that, the "BBS tools" branch expanded with Anti-g who did nice doors for Tempest BBS - until Tempest development was stopped (maybe you know the "why"), and his Amiga broke, soon after. Well, why is it so quiet around 1oo% these days? People moved into all different directions. Aerosoul left soon after he joined. Mxlprx set priority to his studies. Anti-g's Amiga went broke as I already told, and I understand perfectly well that he didn't had it fixed and continued on the PC he had for quite a while, only. Devil closed his BBS due to no response from the callers and is on the IBM route now, the same goes for Dreamer. Bud's Amiga was long broken and has just been fixed. Adolescent vanished somewhere in California, maybe under his Toyota pickup truck :) - Miracle was pretty good and active but also went to the PC because of his future studies, he's concentrating on graphics design now. 1oo% still consists of Anti-g, Bud, Devil, Dreamer, Fate, Hawkwind, Miracle, myself and *you*, though we don't really know what all these people do, anyway?! :) To sum it up: most of the activity died when people moved to other platforms than the Amiga, and we missed to find a way to keep the activity up after that. This especially goes for Dreamer, he was really one of the persons who was quite motivating for me all the time. That doesn't mean the group died, we're still in contact now and then (via a mailinglist and telephone calls, some even call my BBS, unbelievable - grin), and actually, we're looking for a way to get all the people together again, but it ain't easy since we've never been all-Ascii, but coders, as well. 1oo% was always based on friendship and *contact* amongst its members. There was never ever something like a "leader" pressuring people to release something, nor would I in my role of one of the founders of the group ever use this to push the people into a certain direction. I only see what people do and comment it, and at this very moment we're of course in a struggle of what fits 1oo% and what not. dip/a!: Who were the artists who motivated and inspired you in the beginning ? nD: Treach's old big style was gorgeos. Phase was simple but stylish, same goes for Juan. I can't remember others that really influenced me. There are many good names in the Ascii world. dip/a!: What, in your opinion, was the best colly ever released ? nD: This might sound stupid, but the best thing with those character graphics was, no doubt, "Bubonik teenage walruss in the funafied kingdom of sodomatron" (did I spell that one right?!) by dHM/Arclite. I really laughed my arse off when I saw those funny moomin paintings with the obscene and anarchistic speech bubbles. :) dip/a!: What was the lamest production ever (rip attempts etc.) ? nD: I think that there are only very few guys who actually *really* ripped other's work for their own use/fame. Personally, I think many of the accusations going around are just based on strong influence and, really, coincidence. I looked at some styles and often thought "wow, this pretty looks like my own stuff", yet I *know* I haven't seen the stuff before. I can't blame anyone for being a beginner, yet I think that some people in the Ascii scene didn't develop their style into the right direction. It seems to me as if some people out there rely on their reputation and that the masses will accept anything, anyway. No names. What really pisses me off though is a) the "ghettoish" behaviour of some dudes (eg. putting rude/aggressive lyrics in the collection, maybe for the sake of being cool, I don't know), be it due to the inspiration of music or whatever. When I see something like that I always imagine some spot-covered teen face in front of a screen, wanking while watching porn pics, and then raise their self esteem by being "cool" in their Ascii work; and b) the "show of superiority" or how one might call it, by saying "bow down to the evil mothafuckaz from hell and pray to us" (totally self invented but would fit some dudes perfectly well I'd say) and stuff like that in their collections. For me, this is childish and most ridiculous, but then again, this is a matter of taste and personality, as well. dip/a!: Nowadays many ascii artists, even some "legends", draw on pc. Do you think this has an influence on the quality, even if the people draw on pc with amiga charset ? nD: I can't really say if the PC Ascii guys influenced (former) Amiga artists, or if Amiga artists now on the PC... well, whatever. There are very good artists on the PC, though. One name that immediately comes to my mind is Hiro Protagonist/Remorse. Very readable, very stylish, small gimmicks that make each logo unique, I really have a hang on his stuff. For me, its not important on what platform the art was made, and one of the main reasons for that attitude indeed was HP's work: when I first saw his work, I thought "this must be an Amiga artist", and I was wrong. This really changed my mind. It doesn't matter if you're using a PC or an Amiga for Ascii... IMO, of course. :) dip/a!: Do you think the ascii newbies of today should be better informed about the past of the ascii scene ? nD: Well... life goes on. I don't want to teach anyone a history lesson. The important thing is that you DO it. I mean... I myself don't know all the history of Ascii'ing. When I started my BBS in 1994, I even explicitely stated that I don't want Ascii collections uploaded. :) But, I do have a look at the old collections now and then, to remind myself whats the key of Ascii art (and that itself is a question of definitions), and thats the advise I should like to give new artists... break the rules while melting own ideas into the great link. :) dip/a!: Whom of the artists which started in the last two years you would give respect ? nD: I'm sorry to say that, but I don't really follow all the development in the Ascii scene with that much interest - to be honest, I never did, and besides that, I think that many of todays collections are rather boring. dip/a!: Why are you avoiding the IRC ? Well, at first there's the cost. I don't have the money to spend hours online. Then its a question of time. I don't see much sense in spending my time in a channel with loads of smalltalk and, no doubt, funny nonsense. I don't have the foggiest idea what really might go on there, and I think I'm spending too much time in front of that screen already. Besides that, I'm not a pupil or student but do regular work during the daytime, which leaves the evenings and weekends for both relaxation and the housework in my flat. :) I mainly use the internet for email and very few ftp sessions now and then, thats all. If I spend money on my phonebill, I enjoy it more to call BBS'. dip/a!: As every ascii artist, you will do bbs addys from time to time i think. But you are usually the one who fucks about bbs addys, and you also do not add an addy in your bbs... Isn't that a controverse ? nD: Lets keep the difference between a BBS logo (used on logon screens) and adds. I think I mostly did BBS logos intended for usage on logon screens, and thats ok for me. I provided many of the requestors with colored versions of the logo I did right from the start, to make clear what the logo was done for from my point of view, or what I thought the logo should be used for in the first place. I did some aggressive adding time ago, too, with random or shifting names and all the usual bullshit. I even did a small ARexx program for shifting the adds' name around, "1oo% Puzzle" - it picks a name for the add out of a list randomly. Now *thats* controverse, I must agree. :) But what is it good for except lifting the supreme ego of the sysop? I enjoy viewing an Ascii collection in CEd without wading thru pages of adds first. I enjoy unpacking an archive without having the directory littered with countless obsolete files. I mean... most of the adds are full of bragging, and every add I've seen just looks like you *have* to be on that board or your life won't be fulfilled and your existence is imcomplete. So? Its the usual commercial crap, and I avoid it. Just like when you switch the TV channel when the programme is interrupted by commercials. Luckily, the computer allows me to remove the commercials, not just zapping. :) I remove adds on my BBS manually most of the time - because I don't see why my callers need to download useless bytes, and because you can't trust any of the clever "strippers" (except for textfiles). I think 90% of the files in my BBS are free of obsolete files/bytes, and I'm actually proud of that. If adds were for the sake of following the "path" a file took (as you once said), there were other ways to do this, but they were not accepted by the scene. For me, massive adds are something like saying "fuck you" to the "others" out there, and a show of disrespect. I don't mind a single textfile with 1 or two kilobytes. What really pisses me off are multiple adds from the same board, or even executables/pictures etc. Due to the nature of the scene, adds don't have numbers or IP addresses, so we end up with the same question: what is it good for? dip/a!: Doesn't it makes you worry that the ascii scene distances more and more from the bbs scene and moves over to the internet, though on the internet itself there is quasi no use for ascii art ? nD: I'm not only worried about the conflict "internet<>ascii". I'm worried of the increased internet activity in general. Its so unpersonal, everything is so much torn apart. You get the latest stuff from ever changing FTP sites. You download files from anonymous sites or bots. Everything is becoming more and more anonymous and private, the feeling of "general sharing" isn't there, anymore. BBS' can offer more. BBS' have a real personality... *but* being on a BBS also demands something from the caller, and many guys out there aren't willing to give away files, time and knowledge easily, while on the other hand hanging around in the internet hours and hours. Thats sad. Times have changed, and life goes on. But the development doesn't make me happy. People tend to be want-only. dip/a!: Do you see a future for the ascii art, or is it dying slowly ? nD: As long as there are people who do it, it won't die. But the glorious days are over, no doubt. I think its time for a change of Ascii art. Collections of logos chained into a single file, "logo clusters" as they were called in the PC Ansi scene, are boring for me now. dip/a!: What do you think about iff2ascii a la mortimer twang ? nD: I really like it if its balanced with "real" art, or if it is "real" art itself. But I prefer the stuff thats reduced to fewer characters, such as dots or whatever. I really liked that "sos-coop.txt" collection with the dotted style ONLY. With interest I followed the quarrels of "oldskool" vs. "newskool", meaning the old Amiga style vs. the "$" (or whatever) style of many PC artists, which actually looked a lot like iff2ascii at times. dip/a!: "Readable" versus "unreadable" style ? nD: Hehe... sucker :) - I knew this would come. I prefer readable style. I mean... whats the point if you *really* need the header on top of a logo that says whats crypted below there as a logo? Style and readability do not exclude each other, on the contrary: the better the artist, the more he can make his stuff readable WITH style. And Ascii art can be stylish by adding certain gimmicks and stuff to it, as well. On the razor's edge of readable or not, Mogue's style marks the border of readability for me, but its a really really great style, nevertheless! dip/a!: Some words about your board ? nD: "Some words?" - you bet. :) Hmmm... it started in early 1994, named "Floodland", then "Spiceland", then "The Ambush", and now its "Aurora Borealis" and I think :) I'm gonna keep that name, hehe. I'm not using any of the AmiExpress clones, I'm running CNet BBS. Many of those "hard core" AmiEx users can't cope with the program, but hey, that must've something to do with activity of the brain (ahem). Nowadays my BBS is not open for the public anymore as it used to - I was totally fed up with idiots logging in as new users without answering ANY of the questions in the questionaire, not leaving their voice phone number, not even their real name. In return they expected immediate full access to the system... hey, whats this all about? If some people have such a divine paranoia, why do they call with ISDN and transmit their number, anyway? :) So I closed the open gates of Aurora Borealis. I'm concentrating on my art collection (mainly modules, but also ascii and some pixel gfx) and keep my Amiga collection, which I think is one of the best maintained and a very good archive for every Amiga user (it dates back to they days when the BBS initially started and beyond). People who are really interested can contact me via email for an account, thats no problem. I strictly follow the "30 days no call means account gone" rule. I *expect* interest and activity from my users. I do *not* expect excessive uploading, repeat, I *expect* interest, and this does mean *downloading* as well. It gives me the creeps seeing people browsing thru the directories with new files, barely reading the descriptions, and logging off as if they don't care at all. Those people should sell their modem, turn of their computer, throw their mouse into the toilet (and flush), and their monitor out of the window. Why do they switch it on at all, why do they call a BBS? To frustrate the sysop? dip/a!: Wanna greet some people ? nD: My greetings list is always incomplete. Everytime I released a collection or a module, just after I started spreading it, I noticed someone was missing whom I really wanted to greet.
