Disc Covers exhibition - art on Commodore 64 disks - greetings to demoscene
23The Finnish Museum of Games (http://suomenpelimuseo.fi) opened a unique exhibition about the disc cover art of the Commodore 64 demoscene. The 5,25 inch floppy disks and their covers offered the users a unique way to express themselves. Some did it for the fun of it, perhaps to advertise themselves or their group and some found the artistic side using the disc covers as very unique way of expressing themselves. It is in a way some sort of digital punk from the 1980s and 1990s.
The exhibition in the museum is quite possibly the first time ever this side of computer art has been shown in public. There's some 300 different works shown.
In this video Duce and Electric from Extend and Grendel from Byterapers say hello world from the exhibition!
Ari “Duce” Seppä - Tommi “Electric” Musturi - Jukka O. "Grendel" Kauppinen.
The Finnish Museum of Games is focused on experiences: visitors can try the games in their authentic environments. There are more than 100 games on display, and 60 of them can be played.
The Finnish Museum of Games is the first museum of gaming in Finland, and one of the first ones in the world, and gives the many decades of Finnish gaming history the surroundings it deserves
We have, for example, an arcade where you can play coin-operated games. You can also visit the room of a Commodore 64 enthusiast and play the NES games from the early 1990s in the home of an NES gamer.
The Finnish Museum of Games is the result of a collaborative project by the Media Museum Rupriikki housed in Vapriikki, Pelikonepeijoonit and the University of Tampere.
Please consider subscribing, that would be very nice of you:
