FREAX The Art Album: picture book


FREAX Volume 1 - Computer demoscene history After the big Demoscene history book FREAX - Volume 1 this is the 2nd strike of author Tomcat. FREAX - The Art Album is a unique collection of about 1600 pieces of demoscene graphics, presented at 286 pages of excellent paper quality and in full color A4 format (the book is *heavy*).

Quotation of the author: "Preserving demoscene art is a common movement these days. DVDs are released with old demos in video format. CDs are compiled of old module musics. How come never anyone collected pixel art in printed format? We did, so the best screen paintings can be preserved for the future."

The book contains graphics of C64, Amiga, ZX Spectrum, Atari ST and Falcon, Amstrad CPC, PC (8-bit oldschool, 24-bit newschool, ANSI, ASCII) plus raytraced pictures, group logos, handdrawn C64 disk covers and the infamous 'Cracker Comics' from the '80s by Hobbit of Fairlight.
