art packs

June 11th, 2010 by assaf chaprak

I went through my closet the other day and I found a real treasure. a bunch of art packs by different groups who used to hang around #ascii, #ansi and other channels on efnet and dalnet IRC at the mid 90’s. Below are download links for these files. Feel free to download, add comments and if you were a part of any of these groups, reminisce.

Disclaimer – I do not own rights to any of the artwork below (well, maybe some of it :) ). If you are the owner of this artwork and would like to remove any of this from the list, please contact me.

If you want to add to this list please contact me.

I also found a cool short article by Necromancer, a community leader.

Update 11/6/10 -
And just got this ascii archive from blk_jack @ #mimic. filled with great stuff.

letter to mtv dated 1996

April 25th, 2010 by assaf chaprak

i actually wrote this letter (letter, with paper) to MTV at around 1996. found a copy in my drawer. i dont know what I should think of it. great typos.

MTV!

We would like to express our epriciation for your great channel,
which brings enjoyment to veriety of music lovers. For years
we have been witnessing the changes and progress that was made
in the channel and so far we have no complaints.
Nevertheless we would like to point out the change for the worse
in your weekly rock show ‘Super Rock’ comparing to the excellent
old ‘HeadBangers Ball’.
We believe that the presentation holds an highly important element
of the show and while the music remains as good as it used to,
the presentation does’nt express the true charachter of the show.
It is thought that the show’s viewers only care about
rock and ‘babes’ (which is partly true) but the attempt to create
a ’sexy’ mood in the show does’nt fit the show’s nature.
Unlike Super Rock, HB ’s Venessa Warrick gave just the right
atmosphere for the show. the presentation was smooth and flowing,
venessa seemed to be involved in the rock scene and provided tour
dates and locations, details, and interviews with the bands who’s
songs she played.
Instead of the ’sexy’ look the show now has, we suggest using the wild
and rough look HB used to have, and a suiting presentation.
