Interview with Ranx of Jedi Arts
                 - -÷--------------------------------÷- -


And this is what I had to face;

o1.  When did you make your first Ascii attempts?

        - Somewhere around '92

o2.  Do you know how many Ascii-productions have you released?

        - About 20 I guess.

o3.  What's so damn special with Ascii?

        - It's easy to do and looks good, eh.

o4.  Have you got any special idols from the Ascii-scene?

        - Desoto makes damn good looking ascii. Simple, but VERY good
          looking. Also Shock G is always inspiring..

o5.  What's your opinion about the Iff2Ascii-Art?

        - It's fine to me if it looks good.

o6.  Are dot's more stylish than 'regular' Ascii?

        - Hell no..

o7.  Do you read every single collection that is released today?

        - No, but most of them yes.

o8.  Do you answer requests made to 'All Available Artists' ?

        - Depends on the size of my current request list heh.

o9.  How should a request be written to be guarantied a answer from you?

        - If you add my email address in a carbon copy or other mailing
          list you WON'T get any ascii that's for sure.

1o.  Are there more Ascii-groups than there has to be?

        - How about a one big ascii group then? No thanks. Sure there
          has to be a lot of groups. Rather a lot of groups than ALOT
          of independents..

11.  What do you think of the attitude in the Ascii-scene of today?

        - There are some artists who's attitude I don't like. And there
          are also some whose I do like. I think it's pretty well
          balanced..

12.  What do you think about the idea of having special magazines
     dedicated to the Ascii-scene?

        - There shouldn't be a scene without a magazine.

13.  Is there a big difference between Old-skool Ascii and Ascii of today?

        - Not really .. to me atleast. About as big as in os skateboards
          and ns skateboards eh. If you know what i mean.

14.  Have you any special projects going on that will be released in a
     near future?

        - Just trying to compile another pack of requests. Altho I might
          try to make a bbs design collection someday.

15.  What would you be doing instead of Ascii if you suddenly quitted?

        - If i quit ascii I quit ascii. It really isn't the only thing
          I do so..

16.  Do you have that horny snoop doggy dogg everyone is talking about?

        - And my new pair of airwalks...
