As mentioned on the front page of deviantART today, the latest episode of The ARTS [1] was produced and released over the weekend. After being away for a while, it was nice to be back in the studio along with my friend and co-host from the east coast, Spinsane.
As usual, alot has been happening lately. I just returned from Helsinki, Finland from the Assembly 2004 demoparty, which was a total blast. Imagine if you will, an entire ice-hockey arena converted into a massive party for computer art enthusiasts; there you have Assembly. Listen to The ARTS Episode 7 (MP3) if you want to hear what it sounds like to be at a real demoparty first hand.
Now back at my home in California, I'm diligently working towards the Pilgrimage 2004 digital arts festival which was also announced recently on deviantART early in the month as well. Pilgrimage is an international demoparty which takes place in Salt Lake City, Utah which features a host of competitive events.
In addition to the Tsifra Interview mentioned in my previous journal entry, Legalize and I have also participated in a brief interview regarding Pilgrimage for 3DLUVR.COM which is available here.
