Dear Scene: Do your best to not make this terrible.

Here’s the deal: Boing Boing has come into possession of some wicked footage of an anonymous Atari Computer Camp excursion that has everything you could ever want from grainy stock video: namely, yellowed and over-saturated money shots of retro-tech, and a bevy of over-eager and still-innocent pre-teens banging out BASIC to make crossword crosses out of the words Van Halen no joke and gawping at the awesome limitless power and future of computers.

    They should get ahold of people of ASMA archive and get permission for some POKEY material. :)

  3. At first, i thought they wanted people to score the videos themselves, and they would judge the best. But, not seeing a link to the videos, i guess they just want people to submit audio, and then boingboing will score them?

  4. I wrote. We’ll see.

  5. I think they want to make ad revenue off your tracks.. Might be a good exposure deal though.

    Well, I’d love the irony to hear C=/Amiga over this. Prepare for sudden reactivation of sleeper agents from the schoolyard wars.
