AN
INTERVIEW WITH
THE
COOL GIRLS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sometimes newcomers hit the Scene, suddenly coming out of nowhere. This
time our guests are Slovekian and they are girls ! Actually when they posted a
message on DHS most people thought it was fake or that men were hiding behind
Sandra and Tiema. I mailed them and they said they were pretty angry at such
reactions so I'm giving them a chance to tell us all about their history.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STS : Hi Sandra and Timea (dunno yet if both will answer these questions).
Could you please introduce you to our readers : name, age, occupation and any
other details that may interest us.
There are two important things : Right name is Timea, not Tiema and even
more important thing : THERE'S A STATE SLOVAKIA NOT SLOVEKIA AND THIS ISN'T
THE SAME AS SLOVENIA. You may think it's totally unimportant but it sounds
very stupid about our country (we are very proud of :-) OK, but we understand,
we can't say some france words, too. So, something about us...
[note of STS : argh shame on me ! Indeed when I wrote that interview sheet I
made quite a number of stupid typos in countries and names :( Sorry, that
surely wasn't meant ! Sorry again for such lameness !]
Sandra: my name is Sandra (I don't like nicks or aliases), I'm 16 age old, I
live in Poprad and I study in Rimavska Sobota. My hobbies are bike, school,
dancing, rock climbing and for about 3-4 months programming (68030 assembler)
Timea: my name is Timea (not Tiema!!), maybe you can wonder about this strange
name, but you may be sure it's in slovak calendar :-) I'm 16 too, I'm visiting
same school and class as Sandra, my hobbies.. mathematics, computers, bike,
running, history (mainly World War II and Old Egypt)
STS : You recently released Sweety Buildings (read review !) which is a
Falcon intro of average quality, yet a first step thingy. Do you plan other
releases ? We want exclusive news ! :)
Yes, we plan something, but we have to study a lot ! We know our production
wasn't something brainblasting. Give us some time !
STS : You also opened your website at <http://coolgirls.port5.com.> Right
now there's only one page there but what do you plan to add ? And by the way
who's doing what in COOL GIRLS ?
Of course. More info about us, our productions, ... And who doing what ? It's
in textfile in Sweety Buildings... We're both programmers, Timea is trying to
drawn, maybe there will be any music from Sandra... sometime :-) Aaah...
Dexter yet.. it's Sandra's brother, that music you heard was made by him years
ago (using "Sandra's" Falcon)
STS : Your message on DHS spawned a huuuuuuge wave of responses, most of them
(let's be honest) turned quite suspicious about a girls crew. What do you have
to say about that ? Use this opportunity to kill some men's pride ! :)
Look: if someone don't want to believe, he will not be even if we'll do
anything. The fact Evil ignored us totally is a little bit disappointing
for us, we thought DHS is a cool site. But on another side, we were very
nice surprised by publishing info about us at st-computer.net, we gave
them no infos and they gave us to their news !
STS : Now we hope this "incident" won't find you demotivated ! Sure your
first demo isn't ass kicking, but even if reviews aren't too good don't let it
get you down (my first piccies are just awful!). What is your current state of
mind ?
We don't care about anyone. We do our job just for fun, not for % in reviews.
STS : Slovekia isn't known for being active on 16 bit Ataris. I can't think
of others crews but YES CREW and SATANTRONIC. Is there more 16 biters out there
that we don't know ? If you know things we don't, please spread some light !
As we wrote, there's no state called Slovekia :) Slovenia is far away from
Slovakia, we don't know anything about Yes Crew. We know only two persons from
SK Atari scene, but even not personally. First we wrote Satantronic, but after
few mails our communication disappear... From time to time we telephone with
Mikro, he didn't believe, too :-)
STS : What contacts have you had with the ATARI scene ? Have you ever been
to a party ? Maybe then you know lots of XL/Xe crews ? What's hot in Slovenia
these days ?
No, except Xi and Mikro we haven't any contacts "out here".
STS : Now if we want to make sure you exist, you HAVE to attend an Atari
party :) What about Error In Line 3 ? It'd be the perfect occasion to see you
at last !
We have ? :-) Ok then ! From our point of view there's no problem, but our
family is against any "trips" even to cities more away from home. I think Xi
and Mikro want to arrive with car, so there's a chance they carry us too. And
at least... we'll both 17, again one year older :-)
STS : What's your opinion about the current scene ? Do you think it's dying
or could have some nice days ahead ? Since you're on Falcon, are you interested
in the worthcoming Centurbo 060 ?
Hard to say... We don't know very much about demoscene, even how many people
belong there. CT60... yes, it sounds nice, 25x faster computer, but it's too
expensive for us (we are only students !)
[note of STS : Since both girls didn't take time to fill in the brainstorming,
I had to remove it :( That leads us to the last questions then]
STS : Anything you would like to add then ?
We hope we'll be able to arrive to Dresden and show you we're the best girls
on the world, we're preparing something COOL (since we're COOL girls!!! :-),
so... wait and you'll see !!!
Sandra: I would to thank all boys who accepted us instead of blaming us on
boards... even if Paranoid was very sceptical, you're the best man !!!
Timea: Yes, yes, what to add, Moondog is in tactical silent, that's very
nice ! See you in Dresden....
STS : Thanks for answering all these questions ! I hope answers will unveil
some mysteries and show people that girls can do it as good as men.
Not as good, BETTER THAN MEN!!!
STS : Final words before I give you a breath ? Use the occasion !
Uh, again some final words :-) We really don't know what to add... simply :
arrive to Error In Line, we will be there too (maybe) !!! And support the
collective !!!!
Sandra & Timea (CoolGirls)
