Interview
McDisk: Tell us a few things about Vision, especially the norwagin section! (members, date of founding, etc.)
Flash: Well.. Vision has 12 members right now (13/6), 11 in Holland, and one in Norway.. That's me!!! So there's actually no Vision Norway yet...
Vision was founded at first on the good old 64 by TSM, but on the Amiga I think it was in 1989..(Not sure!)
McDisk: Give us a few infos about yourself (age, heigh, etc.)!
Flash: Ahmmm... Not much to say.. I'm 18 years old, ca 1.80 m high and have blond hair!!! Hoho...
McDisk: What are your functions in Vision?
Flash: I'm a mail-swapper and organizing the norwegian division!!! ...Pretty easy job, since there's only one member in Norway!! Haha...
McDisk: What are you doing at the moment... (school, work, etc.)?
Flash: When you read this, I have probably started on my new job but right now I've summerholiday! Yeah...Kick it!
McDisk: Do you were in other crews before you have joined Vision?
Flash: Hoho... Sure I was... When I bought my Amiga 3 years ago, the first thing I did was starting a group... So we started a lame group called C.D.N.. Really a stupid group, so I left and joined the pretty famous c-64 group SHAPE, in order to start an Amiga-division. Nothing happened there since all members still coded on the 64 so I left them in June'90 and joined Vision. But I was kicked out in August, because the very stupid Jetaza didn't like me.... But in November'90, the rest of Vision didn't like Jetaza, coz he thought he was soooo cool, so he left.. And then Facet called me up and said that they wanted me back in Vision, and so I did!! ..But in the meantime (August-November'90) I started a Norwegian division of Cycron... Really lame!!!
McDisk: What about Vision-boards?
Flash: Sure we have a board!!! It's named BAD HABIT, and is Hollands biggest! Call it at.. +31-4132-74387... 300 Megabytes on-line... Sysop is Time-Lord!!
McDisk: Does Vision release more Megademos in the near future (the fourth was great!) or are you working on other big projects?
Flash: Sorry, dudes. There will never come a Vision Megademo 5!!! ...Anyway... It seems that it's 'out' with mega-demos... But TSM is soon finished with his one-disk demo.... And the rest of the coders is also coding on something... Let's wait'n see!!!
McDisk: What about a new Vision-party?
Flash: Ahyeah.. Vision and Legend will held a big party in Holland sometime in September... ...And from the other shit-parties, this party will last for three days!!! Get an invitation by writing to Stingray!!!
McDisk: Tell me a few interesting things about your country (Norway)!
Flash: NO!! No interesting to tell! Norway is a very lame country.. It's not a member of EC!!!! Shit... Anyway.. Loudsa nice girls here but computer equipment is pretty expensive here. The norwegian post is also pretty fast.. And there is no copyright-law, so it's no danger here...
McDisk: Do you have any other hobbies besides computing (and girls!)?
Flash: Ahmmm.. I'm not sure... Ofcoz boozing is an interesting hobby, but I actually don't have time for something else. Right now I have holiday so I use my machine much (about 5-6 hours a day), but when I start on my new job, I simply don't have time for other hobbies than this machine.
McDisk: What do you think about faking stamps?
Flash: Nahhh.. I used it myself for about a year ago, but ofcoz I got busted ...And sooner or later YOU also get busted.. That was also a warning to all who write to me... Don't fake your sendings if u want an answer!
McDisk: Did you ever get problems with the cops?
Flash: No no no.... NEVER!!! Norway has a kind of 'software-police', called SMUK (Sammensluttning Mot Ulovlig Kopiering), but that's just a joke. And they're just farting around on the PC.. They are NO danger at all, because they don't look after just one guy, but big firms who really are using illegal copies.... It is those who is the most important ones!!!
McDisk: Any last words from you?!?
Flash: Yes! First a greet to Control/COMA for interviewing me!!!! Some other greets to.. Facet, TSM and the rest in Holland, Vip(er) of No Limits, Christer of Palace, Mindblaster of Wizzcrap, Oeps... Wizzcat, Flush of PMC, Pinhead of Anarchy, TMB of Scoopex, Tip of Phenomena, Janitor of Rebels, The Pride of Flash Prod and all the rest I know.. And remember that if you would like to contact me, just write to Po Box 56, 2847 Kolbu, in Norway... No faked shit!!
McDisk: We thank Flash of Vision for this nice interview! (Ed: Hope to meet you somewhere in time!! Ciao ....)
