:: / :::: 20 years! ::
:: .. The year was 1996 and a humble ::
::, swedish teenager with a wish to be elite ,::
:: / / wondered down the streets of Gothenburg ::
,:: / gRK to buy his first modem. He plugged it ::,
:: / / into his C Amiga computer and dialed up ::
::, a BBS and also by mistake something ,::
:: / ::: called the Internet. Soon he discovered ::
,: / that Internet was much much more than ::,
:: // webchat- It held a secret underground ::
::, place called IRC and he illegally ,::
:: / ::::: downloaded Amirc with reg key to join up ::
,:: ./ with the community. ::,
:: ... At the same time a long time scener ::
::, ::::::::::::: and norwegian womanizer from Oslo was ,::
:: IIIIIIIIIII hanging around on IRC where he was co- ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX running a group called wOE together with ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX a couple of americans ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX .. what happens next is legend. ,::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX ... So lets jump into our future car and ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX look at january 1998- what happened? ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX iMPURE was formed by two canadian ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX artists. The group soon after merged ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX with wOE and shortly thereafter ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX metamorphed into an individual group ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX runned by p0gue and h3llbeard. ,::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX ... Since that cold january morning ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX iMPURE with an absence of some years ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX has released 67 packs full of eyecandy ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX containing artistic work made with ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX personal computers PC, Amiga and ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX whatever in the artform ascii, ansi and ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX even a picture of a pearl embroidery ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX that Mazes daugther made in honour of ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX the group. ::,
::, XXXXXXXXXXX ... Today as we look back we see that we ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX are the third most productive group in ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX the scene ever, and in a couple of days ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX we have been in the scene for over ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX twenty years, which is actually a nice ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX round number. In Sweden they whould say ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX tjugo r and in Norway tjue r. ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX Meanwhile we let our MSDOS baby brother ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX Blocktronics celebrate their 10th year ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX as a group. Good going newschool guys ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX with your social media facebook and ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX twitter! ::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX ... We keep growing and would like to ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX welcome the long time scener and good ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX friend of ours Spinsane to the group- ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX Welcome! ,::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX ... Since our last pack we have also ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX collaborated in a massive group effort ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX to create the widest ascii ever which ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX was also released as an animated demo ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX version at the Demosplash demoparty in ::,
:: XXXXXXXXXXX Xeros hometown. We ended up at second ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX place. Get it here: ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which72285 ::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX ... Our vast BBS empire keeps on ::
::, XXXXXXXXXXX expanding a since the last release ,::
:: XXXXXXXXXXX we now have two more BBSes under our ::
,:: XXXXXXXXXXX command. Pharcyde, operated by Accession ::,
:: IIIIIIIIIXX and the highly credited old time scene ::
