INTERVIEW WITH ADT/ABSOLUTE!
----------------------------
As we are a Hungarian diskmag, we'd
like to make the Hungarian scene a bit
known. Together with the usual
interviews we will allways introduce a
Hungarian freak, this time one of the
best coders in Hungary. As he is
living 10 minutes from my place he is
the ideal person to interview in the
last moment before releasing.
Hello ADT! Please introduce yourself,
How old are you and what's your job?
I'm a 113 years old coder, but
sometimes I make the gfx and audio for
my products coz it's easier to make
such gfx and music that will fit with
my image of the product, than ask
others to do so. Just check the SH9
intro. If I ask our musician to make
a fast music that's approx. 50 sec.
long, have a blasting sound in each 2
secs, and double blast after, etc...
I'm sure that this will not fit with
my image, but can be a nice tune for
an other project. Our musician Ern0
and Brian are very tallented, Ern0's
musics are very great but not for a
demo (Check musicdisk: Musication
Vol.1), he is a musician with their
own style, his musics are very good
for games, diskmags, sideshows. We
have yet only one product (Pizza
Place) with music from Brian, and this
spec. coded for that music. Now we
got 2 very tallented graphicians CRM
and Jaby, and they making graphics
that fits with my designing image.
Rack also pixeling some gfx for us.
Tell us, what your name means, is it a
short of anything?
Yes it is short of: Love, Sex &
Inteligence, in papuan language.
Seriously it's shortage of Axon
Digital Technics, but I think this is
very lame name nowadays and I use only
ADT.
When have you met with computers for
the first time? Tell us about your
carrier!
1984: I started learn Basic on ABC-80
(cool machine!)
1985: I got a Commoore 16 from my
parents, I found my pseudonym: ADT.
1986: I got a C= 128
1987: I got an Amiga, and I found
Soc.Brigade with my friend Asti.
1992: Soc.Brigade changed name to
Absolute!
Have you ever dreamed of joining a
group like Silents or Anarchy?
No. I ever dreamed to make a famous
group with my friends.
What do you think about the scene? can
you see some real troubles?
There is a big problem with the
hugarian scene and this is: most of
hugarian groups think that they are
famous because they have released an
intro an they have more than 20
members, they always spreading rumours
about eachothers, and thinks that they
popularity will raise if they make
other groups unpopular.
Do you like parties? What do you
prefer to do in a party?
I like meet my friends, and have fun
(sometimes booze) together.
What's the reason of demomaking? Why
don't you code only games? How many
intros have you made?
I coded about 50 relesed produsts
(intros, demos, slideshows,
musicdisks, utilities). I think this
got me a big experience in coding. I
will code games if I get a good offer
and I'll sure that I can sell my work.
Democoing, is my hobby... I do it in
my sparetime.
Have you other hobbies?...
Yes, my hobbies: killing, protracker
testing, collecting girlies...
Killing who?
Odd lamers, even lamers, lamers who
call me lamer, Norton Commander users
and killers like me...
How do you think can a dude learn very
well coding? Is it question of talent
or anything else?
Yes, the guy must have something that
you can call talent, but he must have
lot of persistance.
Lame is very popular word nowadays.
what does it mean for you? Who is a
lamer?
I'm surely not a lamer but I was. But
by my opinion nowadays lamer that dude
who have bigger mouth than talent in
making some code, gfx, or zak.
Swappers are exceptions, they makes
our world go around...
Okay, now let's jump to the real
world! which is your favourite
alcoholic drink?
Coke is my favourite but it's not
alcoholic. If I decided to drink some
alcoholics then my fav. is pure
Vodka.
What/Who is the best thing/person on
the world?
Sex, bugfree code, codefree bug.
Me, myself and I! (just joking...) I
wont make this interview 42Mbytes long
coz I can't crunch it to fit on a
disk, (I'm hardworking on a FRACTAL
cruncher, then...) so I list nobody
now...
What/Who is the worst thing/person on
the world?
Have friends.
Nuclear weapon developers and Norton
Commander users.
(On Abaddon II party we have renamed
on some PCs NC.COM to NK.COM... can
you imagine how many lamers can't
start their games? They are simply
can't type DIR, CD, etc... some after
1 year, they got their PC!)
What kind of music do you like?
I like lotsa styles, it's changing by
my mood. I like Newage, Rap, JazzRap,
Techno, Rock, EBM... my favourite
groups are: Art of Noise, KLF, Jarre,
Public Enemy, Beastie Boys, Run DMC,
Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, Cabaret
Voltaire, Yello and lotsa more I wont
list all now. I like Techno music but
there is a big fail, lotsa new groups
making really shit music that they
call techno and this makes techno
unpopular. I very hate "disco" music,
like London Beat, Kylie M., Roxette...
Which is your favourite sport-cloth
mark?
??? have you one? It's changing by
products, but my biggest part from
Adidas.
At last how many hours have you spent
with Sledge Hammer, and how many time
you sitting by computers?
With coding of the first version of SH
I spent 2 month, and the worktime was
app. 70 hours.
Weekly app. 30-40 work, and app. 10-20
scene. But why don't you ask how many
time I spend with my girlie?
Thanx ADT and please crunch the mag
now!
Thanx too! I'll try my best... Bye!
