Z:   Hi  Bostich,  nice  from you to give SUICID this little interview!  Can you
please give the readers a small introduction of your person ?

B:   Oh,  sure I can - my handle is BOSTICH as you see, I am 18 years of age, my
profession is hardcore coding and source raping and I am organising the austrian
section of FUSION, actually with 3 members.

Z: Tell us something about FUSION and your current projects!

B:  About three months ago we climbed from C64 to AMIGA.  We are in FUSION since
1991  I  guess (on 64) and it is a really fine group, not so active anymore like
they  were  some  years  ago  by  doing  cracks  and  trainers (remember MEN and
MACHINE!)  but  there  are  still talented and active members left!  We released
some  Intros  and  a  slide-show  on  C64  and one great Demo called `The frayed
Citadel` which got fine critics after the release, although it was not very well
spreaded.

Z: And on Amiga?

B:  We are on Amiga now for three months, but it is a wonderful machine to code,
because  the capacity of memory is not so limited than on C64, and Amiga has for
sure  more  power.   Actually  I  try  to  code  a Dentro-Trentro-Mentro-Trackmo
together  with WINSTON and graphics by TEA POT!  But this will last quite a long
time  because there are other things to do in my life than coding or converting.
But you may expect it maybe by the end of the year!

Z: What do you think about the AUSTRIAN scene and about the scene in general?

B:   Well, I do not know too many of the austrian scene because I did not meet a
lot  of  people  from Amiga scene yet.  The C64 scene was really cool, at a time
where TSK and COSMOS were among the best groups in the world.  Nowadays a lot of
people  left  to Amiga or quitted the scene forever.  But the C64 scene is still
active  here as well as international.  The Amiga scene is really worth to be in
but  there  is  for sure too much bussiness and too less friendship left.  But I
admire  those people (me for example, hehe) who do not care about that bussiness
shit and just see in the scene a playground for their talents.

Z:  Why did you not come to any party organised in Austria in the last years?  A
lot  of  people  were angry about this.  But you travel to parties in Germany or
Hungary!

B:   Eh...I  mean  I  had no time to visit parties in Austria when they had been
organised!  You know I have to work a little bit to earn money from time to time
in  order to survive in the city jungle.  The SEMI party in Innsbruck would have
been possible but..I forgot..I had no time, you know, but I also heard that this
party  was not too good, so I missed nothing!  Foreign parties are cool, because
I  know more people from abroad than in Austria.  I do not care much about scene
in Austria.

Z: Who is the CODER you admire most ?

B:   On  C 64 it was DARK from the SUPPLY TEAM who made even unbelievable things
like  vector-shadow  effects  etc..   On Amiga it is CHAOS/SANITY because of his
really  brilliant Demos (he does not care much about designing/shit which I also
do  not  do!)  then DELTA/RSI for being the first who coded a REAL DEMO on Amiga
with a cool Trackloader.

Z: And which coder is extremely unpopular in your oppinion?

B:   Hehe,  tricky question to start some good group war!  But I will tell you a
little  secret!!!....Hornet/ALCATRAZ is a real faker,hahaha.  Odyssey was nothin
than  a  slideshow,  I  do  not  know  how this demo won the competition in AARS
because  his  coding  affords are almost none.  But the praphics were good, said
TEA POT!


Z: What is your oppinion about diskmags?

B:   Cool, really funny sometimes.  I like those one on C64 like MAMBA (rulez!!)
or SEX n`CRIME but on Amiga I like some with funny contents like ABNORMALIA, RAW
and  SCENE  LYRICS  (really,  although  it is by ENERGY, hahaha).  Yep, mags are
marvellous...

Z: Coming to an end - what do you think will happen to Amiga in future?

B:   Oh,  Amiga  will  be  strong  as ever, because I will release a lot of good
routines  and I will be very famous, hehe, no I think there will be only changes
by  legal-illegal  activities but the amount of users will be the same!  Look at
the C64!!  After 12 years of scene, there are still people left!!

Z: Some final messages or greetings?

B:   To  all  my pals on C64, some to my friends on Amiga and to all who know me
and good look with SUICID(e?) in future!!  Why SUICID without `e` ?

Z: Hehe, that`s our sweet secret!.......
