- Group History 1.0 -
Welcome to the official NM Prod. Group History info file! Since Im the
official Gore-dude of the group Ill be leading you on this guided tour.
Nuclear Meltdown Productions is a new group on the often made fun of
American demo scene. Our goal is simply to have fun and put out an
occasional production.
First, lets start with a current-up-to-date-awesome-member-list.
Nuclear Meltdown Productions is:
Handle Position Age
Joe Snow Main Coder 16
Clueless Gore-dude and occasional coding 17
Esteban Graphics 19
We NEED a musician. Keep reading for more info.
Now that you know who we are Ill tell you a bit about how we came about.
The name Nuclear Meltdown came from a BBS that Joe Snow was a cosysop of
a couple years back. Thanks to some of Joe Snows other productions many
people were calling the board and it was getting rather large.
Unfortunately problems developed and the original Nuclear Meltdown BBS had
to be shut down. Thus, Joe Snows little BBS called Nuclear Meltdown Line 2
effectively became line 1. During this time there was no Nuclear Meltdown
Productions and Joe Snow simply coded on his own, making many useful and fun
programs see Release List later in this file.
Joe Snow taught himself how to code in C when he was 10 years old, between
fall and winter of that year, on a 286, with a CGA graphics card and
monochrome monitor. A vague understanding of assembly was somewhat aquired
several years later although almost all coding is still done in C.
Then, a year or two ago I Clueless got my hands on a modem and through it
became good friends with Joe Snow. At this time the only coding I had done
was in BASIC and I knew nothing about the demo scene. Joe Snow showed me
some demos and I was hooked. A short time later I taught myself how to code
in C. We then had the great idea to form a small demo group. Now, as you
can imagine we had quite a ways to go with one good coder and one beginner
coder.
Esteban started his art career at the tender age of 6 by watching the TV
show starring Captain Bob. When he was 16 his family got their first
computer and a year later Esteban got the program Fauve Matisse for
Christmas. Fauve is his favorite program and others he uses are
PC Paintbrush and Freehand 4.0. At college he is currently majoring
in Graphic Art. Id been good friends with Esteban for a while and knew
that he was a good artist and liked to draw things on his computer.
We asked him if hed like to join our little group and he accepted.
Now all we need is a musician. If you are a musician and would like to
join Nuclear Meltdown Productions just let us know see Contact Info.
Well listen to something youve made and most likely youll be accepted.
It would be preferable if you live somewhere in New England but if you
have an Internet account it doesnt really matter where you live.
