Found Pixelated Quick Time Player 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I must start this post by saying. This is not a painting. It's a piece of found internet art. While watching the video for the World Chess Boxing Organisation I paused it to buffer the video. As I sat and stared at the screen I saw this great pixelated image which came up between edits during the video. See? This is how you start seeing the internet when you've been painting these pixelated paintings for the last 6 years. Read more:Quick

art. I'd like to do more, but damn, this stuff is time consuming.
Data in Star Trek 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Who dosn't love Data, and his quest for human emotions? Data is played by Brent Spiner in the classic series Star Trek
The Next Generation. Data's originally planned backstory was that he had been created by aliens. The backstory appears in the novelisation of "Encounter at Farpoint" by David Gerrold, which has Data having been built by alien machines from Kiron III, in order to preserve the memories of a wiped-out human colony.The episode "Datalore" abandoned this backstory, and instead had the cyberneticist Dr. Noonien Soong creating Data on Omicron Theta after several attempts. In the episode, Data's immediate predecessor, Lore, Data's "evil twin", is reactivated. Data discovers in the episode that he was active on Omicron Theta, but Soong deactivated him and erased most of his memories (although he retains the contents of the Omicron Theta colonists' journals) at some point prior to the Crystalline Entity's attack on the colony. The creature destroyed almost all the life on t
Sign in to Gmail 1970-01-01 00:59:59 The internet is always in flux. Well, that's really the understatement of the year. The internet is always being overhauled, re-designed, and broken links are being fixed, and people are spamming, and etc. etc.. Managing a webpage reminds me of my grandfather who was a farmer. While he did produce flax, and wheat which was for sale. The majority of the time I remember him was spent fixing broken tractors, and welding already precarious scoops onto loaders. Now, why do I bring this up in connection with a painting of the Gmail
login? Well, from an early age I had a specific propensity to archive things. Things that were changing. I organized the world according to time periods, and kept a diary of both my dreams, as well as my life since age 8. This is the way the Gmail login looks today. But who remembers the original webcrawler icon? For me, while this electronic image is merely a logo, the time period in which I used Webcrawler reminds of a certain period of my life as well as a v
Pig Lungs Digitized 1970-01-01 00:59:59 I found this image in an old biology textbook. I'm still searching for more information on the subject and practice of this early form of digital x ray. This painting depicts an image of pig lungs done with one of the first digital x ray machines. Read more:Lungs
Aero Fighters 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Aero Fighters
was a cabinet game later adapted for the Neo Geo system. It was a scrolling fighting game where you blow up many different targets which are trying to get you. In this painting I have chosen to paint only one of the gun turrets that was trying to take out your jet.
The Last Starfighter 1970-01-01 00:59:59 The last starfighter was a science fiction movie which came out in 1984. The film's basic premise was based off of current urban legend of the time. The legend was that video games were actually secret training stations which harvested data for military recruitment agencies.In the last starfighter we see Alex Rogan, a teenager living in a remote trailer park named "star light star bright". One dark night after beating the high score on the game he is approached by the games inventor who is named centauri. Centauri takes him into his vehicle and he quickly realises the vehicle is actually a spaceship. Alex needs to defend the galaxy from the evil Xur and the Ko-Dan.I've put my portrait in the space suit of the Star League fighter pilots. If you are interested in a similar portrait of yourself wearing a similar space suit you can email me, and we'll work out the details.:)The l

10 Yard Fight 1970-01-01 00:59:59 10-Yard Fight is a 1983 American football arcade game, developed by Irem and published by Nintendo (NES) and Irem (Arcade).The player does not select plays for either offense or defense. On offense, simply receive the ball upon the snap and either attempt to run with the quarterback, toss the ball to one of two running backs, or throw the ball to the one long distance receiver. On defense, the player chooses one of two players to control, and the computer manipulates the others. The ball can also be punted or a field goal can be attempted.
720° 1970-01-01 00:59:59 720 Degrees, or 720°, is a 1986 arcade game by Atari Games. 720°, a skateboarding game, is notable in that it is the first extreme sports video game, and has a unique timed structure that requires the player score points in order to keep the game going. The game's name comes from the "ultimate" trick, turning a full 720° (two complete circles) in the air after jumping off a ramp. 720° has the player controlling a skateboarder ripping around a middle-class neighborhood. By doing jumps and tricks, the player can eventually acquire enough points to compete at a skate park.
portrait of me in the studio 1970-01-01 00:59:59 My friend Dennison Bertram came over today and took some pictures of me in my studio.
3-d-woldrunner 1970-01-01 00:59:59 In the game, the player assumes the role of WorldRunner (known in Japan as Jack), a wild "space cowboy" on a mission to save various planets overrun by serpent-like beasts.[1] For its time, the game was technically advanced; the game's three dimensional scrolling effect is very similar to the Mode 7 graphics seen years later in popular Super NES titles such as Super Mario Kart.via wikipedia

This world of the distant future has once again flourished under the guidance of the Great King, who harnessed the power of the 8 Eyes to rebuild the planet.These strange jewels of power were formed at the eyes, or centers, of the eight nuclear explosions which nearly destroyed the Earth.

Freddy will also come occasionally and try to get you, just fight him off as best you can. There several items which are important to collect.

Advanced Dungeons & Dragons; Hillsfar 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Advanced Dungeons
& Dragons
; HillsfarI think I can safely say that Hillsfar is the Worst Role-Playing Game Ever Made. Actually I changed my mind, it's only safe to say that if you accept that this is an RPG in the first place, which it really isn't, despite the AD&D title.There is absolutely no role playing involved. Your primary goal seems to consist of breaking into people's houses and stealing all their money without getting caught by the guards. Even when you are doing your job, following the missions given by your guild or whatever, you are always an outlaw. Your alignment doesn't matter. Your class doesn't matter. Clerics can't heal themselves, Magic-Users can't use magic, and Thieves are the only class that have any trouble stealing things, because everyone else can just break the lock, while a thief is supposed to use lock picks, which is nearly impossible and results in a bag full of broken tools rather than getting away with the loot. via console classix dot com

Windows Vista is here!!!!! Wow! Im so excited! ... 2007-03-06 13:00:00 Windows Vista
is here!!!!! Wow! Im so excited
! Prague has recently been taken over by a blitz of advertising telling everyone to say "wow" about the latest operating system. I for one am not saying wow, and am annoyed by these advertisements that seem to follow me at every turn. So I decided to use the classic new Vista error message which reads "Error, The Operation Completed Succesfully" . I've made a sheet here for easy sticker duplication on A4 sized paper. As you can imagine the error window can be made to fit any size advertisement. While stickering in public may be illegal, and of course I would never, ever condone such behavior ( :) ) it is fun to see these ads with a little reinterpretation of all the annoying error messages I've got using windows over the years. Enjoy:) ( Click on the image for full size ) Read more:Windows
