Hi everyone!

My name is Kurt Woloch. I was born in 1971, and I live in Vienna, Austria. My first computer was a TI-99/4A, then I had a Commodore 64, an Amiga 500 and several PC's. As for video games, I had an Atari 2600, a Nintendo Gameboy and several handheld games, apart from some calculators and pocket computers programmable in BASIC.
I was always interested in programming, starting on the TI-99. On the C-64, I learned 6502 assembler as well. Today, I work as a programmer for Austria's government, programming in Visual Basic 6, VBA and PL/I.

Since 1998, when the Internet and emulation scene started, I was interested in the internal of several old consoles and computers, and I also programmed something for them. There has been a "Jim's heart will go on" demo for the Atari 2600, an unfinished version of "Tetrinet" for the Philips G7400, and several demos for the Creativision, which basically play some music and display graphics in Bitmap mode, a mode of the Creativision's video chip which never has been used in the "official" Creativision cartridges (but has been used in software for other systems sharing the same video chip, such as the TI-99, the Colecovision and the MSX line).
