We  have  been so extremely lucky to
get   an   interview   with  one  of
Norway's  most promising graphicians
at   the   moment,  TMB  Designs  of
Spaceballs.                         
                                    
(Note: This interview was done      
before The Party II, Ed.)           
                                    
Cs:   Hi Tore! How are you today, if
      I may ask?                    
                                    
TMBd: Not  too  bad,  but not very  
      good either.                  
                                    
Cs:   So,  have  you  been  drawing 
      anything lately?  What's your 
      latest-     and    forthcoming
      productions?                  
                                    
TMBd: I've made layouts for demos,  
      some  to  come out soon + some
      pictures.                     
                                    
Cs:   Why are you using so few      
      colors in your works?         
                                    
TMBd: Because I draw medres!  I     
      draw  in medres because it's a
      much   more   flexible  format
      though  it's  a  hell  to work
      with.                         
                                    
Cs:   (Well, I was actually thinking
      of    the   special   use   of
      grey-scales,  and  more @dull@
      colors  -  not  bright  colors
      like yellow, red, green, etc.)
                                    
Cs:   Do you have a girlfriend?     
                                    
TMBd: Nope, not right now.          
                                    
Cs:   (Why  is  it  so  that  so few
      computer    freaks    have   a
      girlfriend?     It's   a   bit
      strange,  I  think.   Maybe  I
      should  write an article about
      it...)                        
                                    
Cs:   I  know that you are some kind
      of an enviromental enthusiast,
      at  school,  you are very keen
      on  recycling the paper, etc. 
      Want to talk about it?        
                                    
TMBd: NAH!                          
                                    
Cs:   What do you think of graphics 
      competitions at parties?      
                                    
TMBd: They sucks!  (Ed:  It sucks,  
      they  suck.)  To  have  a real
      compo   you   have   to   have
      pictures  drawn there and then
      a   competent   jury,   not  a
      @democratic thing@.           
                                    
Cs:   How many competitions have you
      competed in and how did it go?
                                    
TMBd: Don't  know  how  many,  but  
      since  I often draw small pics
      and        uses       (mostly)
      self-constructed  pictures,  I
      get 10th place and so on...   
                                    
Cs:   Which  and  when  is  the next
      Amigaparty you will go to?    
                                    
TMBd: The  Party '92 - Xmas. (Read  
      the  complete  party report in
      this issue!  Ed.)             
                                    
Cs:   Who  and  what inspires you in
      your drawing?                 
                                    
TMBd: Movies,    MUSIC,    other    
      graphicians, friends, etc.    
                                    
Cs:   To  get the standard opinions;
      who's your favorite:          
                                    
      Coder: THE SPY                
      Musician: OYSTEIN EIDE        
      Graphician: UNO               
      Diskmag: R.A.W                
      Trackmo: GLOBAL TRASH         
                                    
Cs:   Do ya think that a new diskmag
      like  UPSTREAM  has any chance
      of surviving in the scene?    
                                    
TMBd: Ask me that next year, ok?    
                                    
Cs:   Do  you  like  techno-sounds? 
      (hint,   hint...(I   know  he 
      hates it...))                 
                                    
TMBd: The  -ONLY-  person that can  
      make proper @techno@ music is 
      Static,    especially   @Total
      Triple Trouble@.              
                                    
Cs:   Are you involved in any making
      of    professional   software?
      (games, etc.)                 
                                    
TMBd: Not yet.                      
                                    
Cs:   Anybody you'd like to  say  hi
      to, now when you've got the   
      possibility     of    reaching
      3.000.000   Amiga-freaks   out
      there?      (Hey,    I    said
      POSSIBILITY - I guess the mag 
      won't be THAT well spread, but
      anyway...)                    
                                    
TMBd: I  guess I talk to them guys  
      anyway, so never mind.        
                                    
Cs:   Thanks  to  you, Tore, for the
      interview!
