    De Grafische Werkplaats in Den Haag dreigt per 1 januari zijn subsidie te verliezen, en zal daardoor na 50 jaar moeten sluiten. Teken de petitie om bezwaar hier tegen te maken! https://petities.nl/petitions/behoud-de-grafische-werkplaats-in-den-haag?locale=nl #thehague #graphicarts #workshop #petition

    Last Thursday at ESAD in Amiens I showed my recreation of 3D programming experiments that Evert Bloemsma did in the mid 1980s. For this purpose I used printed examples of his BASIC source code and made it work again on a Sinclair ZX Spectrum homecomputer. @esadtype #ZXSpectrum #basic #programming
