Due to the high expectations surrounding the adaptation of Dune (Cryo) for the Amiga AGA, we decided to interview Cyril Houzé (Barjack), the graphic artist of the project, who kindly answered our questions and gave us permission to reveal some exclusives, such as who the coder is, animation tests, or new screens.
1- Hi Barjack, thank you for accepting the interview. Please introduce yourself.
1: Hi, Barjack, 48 years old. I live in a charming little village in France, high in the Alpes Maritime mountains near Nice. I practice my job as an independent graphic designer there, in absolute calm, among deer and wild boars.
2- Tell us a bit about how you got started in the world of personal computers and what you’re currently working on.
2: I am above all a demomaker graphic designer on Amstrad CPC. My second favorite machine is the Amiga. Like many, my parents couldn’t offer me an Amiga that was too expensive when it came out. I only «lately» got my first Amiga 600 in 1993, then subsequently an Amiga 1260 in tower until 2000, before moving on to the PC.
My favorite machine is the Amstrad CPC, but the Amiga is not far behind.
