From the Amiga ASCII collection Voodoo Kult by Stylez, 1995.
This week will be all in PETSCII, the colourful ASCII-version used by Commodore’s 8-bit computers. We’ve worked a lot with PETSCII the past two years ourselves, doing things like 2SLEEP1 (ambient), Oso (eerie) and live performances.
The images above are from old posts we’ve made, see more at http://text-mode.tumblr.com/tagged/petscii. They are:
– Amiga demo New-D by Otro and Goto80 (2010)
– Notemaker Demo II by Poison (2008)
– Amiga-demo 911 by Limbo (1997)
– Cursor #15 Hawaii, originally by Ken Morley (1979).
– 20 Years Is Nothing by Hack n Trade (2013).
– Video by Erik Nilsson & Joakim Alstorp, music by Frak (2010).
– Commodore 64 disk directories

The SCA virus is the first computer virus created for the Commodore Amiga and one of the first to gain public notoriety. It appeared in November 1987. The SCA virus is a boot sector virus. It features a line of text that appears at every 15th copy after a warm reboot:
Something wonderful has happened Your AMIGA is alive !!! and, even better… Some of your disks are infected by a VIRUS !!! Another masterpiece of The Mega-Mighty SCA !!
