Interview with

     WALT of MELON DEZIGN/CRYSTAL


    done by Head/Alcatraz via mail


MD: Hi  Christophe!   Please  tell our
    readers  some personal infos about
    your  person  and  your job on the
    computer.

WA: I   try   to   be  an  Amiga  demo
    graphist (?)




MD: Tell   us   something  about  your
    history  and  about the groups you
    were in.

WA: I'm  going  to tell you some words
    about my life in the scene...

    - Darry Booper Crew 
    - Concept
    - Silents
    - Alliance Design

    and now in:
     
               MELON DEZIGN

 
MD: You  painted  the  graphic for the
    famous ICE demo.  Please give some
    brief  infos  about that.  Did you
    made  the  overall  design of ICE,
    too?

WA: Famous???   I think the ICE is the
    most  BORIIIIING  demo ever!!!  In
    fact,  Ronan  showed  us  all  his
    routines  without  thinking  about
    their  interest!   His  next  demo
    will certainly be as boring as the
    ICE...


MD: How  do  you  paint your graphics?
    Do  you  paint freestyle or do you
    get inspirations from books?

WA: Books for pictures.  Freestyle for
    logos, fonts and design.


MD: Do   you  use  technical  help  by
    painting like a scanner?

WA: No. 


MD: What   do   you  think  about  the
    paintingstyle     of    Uno    and
    Mithrandir?

WA: Uno:
    He is the really best graphist for
    demo  on Amiga...  I think he must
    be  very fast and his pictures are
    very cool.  Uno created a fabulous
    new  way of filling forms.  He has
    one  of  the  best  anti-aliasing.
    I've  got some unreleased pictures
    from  him  which  prove that he is
    the  B-E-S-T!!   I would like very
    much to know him personally!!!

    Mithrandir:
    He is also one of the best!!!  His
    pictures  should  be  composed  of
    smaller ones made seperately.  His
    anti-aliasing is his unique little
    default.   I  would  like  to meet
    him, too!


MD: I`ve heard from several dudes that
    they  call  you  a `troublemaker`.
    Please   give  me  your  statement
    about that.

WA: That`s  right!   But  I  think I'm
    very    cool    with    those    I
    appreciate...   (They will know if
    they`re ment here...)


MD: What  do  you think about parties?
    What   was   the  best  party  you
    visited so far?

WA: The  guy  who organise the parties
    in France  are  swindlers!  (exept
    T.C.A.T  parties.)  The best party
    ever was of course:

             >>>THE PARTY<<<


MD: What do you think about the french
    demo scene?

WA: The   french   scene   is   mostly
    composed   of   lamers  or  french
    sections  like:   Silents, Rebels,
    Scoopex,  TSB.   I think that this
    important    number   of   foreign
    section  is  due  to the succes of
    Silents france...


MD: Did  you  ever get in trouble with
    the police?

WA: No!  The police seeks only for PBX
    and calling cards users.


MD: Are  you  in  contact  with  other
    graphicians?   If  so, how is your
    relationship to them?

WA: Yes  I  often meet Mack (SCX?) and
    HOF  (TSL).   They  are the future
    number ones!
    I  know  also  Marvel  of  Statics
    Bytes,  Ramjet, Fraifax and Rattle
    of  PMC...   but  I  am to lazy to
    answer their letters...
      

MD: Now  you`ve  some  space  to write
    messages or whatever you want.

WA: I thank you for this interview!

    (Moby, coupes-toi les cheuveux, ca
    fait CRAD!!!)


MD: Thank  you  for your attention and
    answering    all   my   questions,
    Christophe.
