INTERVIEW WITH THE GUARDIAN ANGEL
]-----------------------------------

 by DEF KLF of MAD VISION


] KLF: The best way to begin is that you
]introduce yourself,who are you T.G.A. ?

 T.G.A.: My  name  in "normal" life  is
Henning Lau. I'm old enough to buy beer
and  smoke  in public places (...)  I'm
still at school and live by my  parents
(that will change soon (yep))  I have a
sister and no pets.  My hobbies  beside
girls and parties are: Computer, Sports
and  Graffitti.  In  the  Group  I'm  a
swapper and a packer-man.  I also  make
sometimes  gfx  &  code a little bit in
GFA-Basic...

] KLF: Can you explain us,why you joined
]the french band The Lightnings of ESC ?

 T.G.A.: I joined the french Lightnings
because  I  decided  to  stop the  Demo
Compact Disks  and  only swapping Demos
wasn't  satisfing.  Also  I  think  the
future  of  the   ST-Demo-Scene  is  in
France. I  want  to  mention  that  I'm
still a  ( passive )-member  of  N.P.G.
Perhaps the problem with N.P.G. is that
all  members  live in different cities,
and  so  the work-together  isn't  that
good...

] KLF: Are the rest of NPG still working
]on their megademo ?

 T.G.A.: N.P.G. still want  to  release
the Megademo this decade (hehehe)
 
] KLF: Few weeks ago , you  told me in a
]letter,German ST scene was almost dead.
]Does it mean Amiga scene is very active
]in Germany , or that consols & Pc shits
]killed computer scenes ?

 T.G.A.: That was a mistake by  myside.
I  found  out in  the  last  time  that
the  german-ST-scene isn't as dead as I
thought. The  problem  with the  german
crews  is that  they  don't  release so
much stuff. ( or  if  they do  it isn't
spread).  Well  I don't know much about
the  Amiga-scene  but I  know  quite  a
large number of Amiga-owner. ( But most
of  them  are  kiddies which go to  the
'Cebit'...)  Also the PC has a rise up.
Consols aren't spread to well,  because
they are still expensive. 

] KLF: Why all German cracking bands are
]dead or unactive ?  Is it impossible to
]find hot news in any shops ? Or is the
]police too oppressive ?

 T.G.A.: Well a quite good question.  I
thought a long time about it and and in
my  opinion there are several  reasons.
The  main  one  are the  Police  &  the
Anti-Piracy-Laws.  It's  ridiculous  to
risk  so much for getting a little  bit
of fame. Also the old-school-crews like
TEX  are  now making Games and it isn't
very advisable to mess with them...
Many Softwarefirms leave the ST because
the selling-rate is fucked up. There is
hot stuff  in the shops but only two or
three  weeks  after  it was cracked  in
France  or  in  the  U.K.  One point to
mention is that you can't get rich with
cracking, but with making games...
  

] KLF: Let's  talk about  happier things
]now. Is it a particular reason to named
]yourself The Guardian Angel ?

 T.G.A.: I  tried  to  find  the   most
stupid  name and ... ' helleluja '... I
succeeded. No, I choose the name in the
time  where  everybody  used  to    on his
]Nintendo ?

 T.G.A.: One time I tried to explain  a
girl  what  the  computer-shit  is  all
about... It's  was  the  first and last
time I tried to do that !! These people
doesn't  understand   the  reason   why
somebody  could  spend so much  time on
collecting Demos ( which you can't even
play on ...) 

] KLF: Here  are  various words , if you
]have things  to  say about ...
]       ... Express yourself !

[SAUERKRAUT:  Well it's the same as when
[I ask you about 'FROG'

[LAMERS: It's  a  problem  of definition
[what a Lamer is...

[ELTSINE: Bahnhof ? ...Bratkatoffeln ?!

[42 CREW: In my eyes one of the best
[Crackers (quite a long time number 1 in
[europe...now on the otherside...)

[NAZI SOFTWARES: If I get one  of  these
["productions"  I will  personally  give
[the  address  from the swapper and  the
[maker to the police, be sure of that.

[ULM: ?  What should I say about them...
[great coding ?! 

[VECTRONIX: New Crackers, aren't they ? 

[GERMANY: On the one hand I like to live
[here, but  on  the  other  hand  it's a
[fucked up place... 

[USA: No way! These big-headed guys even
[made an movie out of the 'Desert-Storm'
[They are prudish, mental-ill  and  want
[to rule the world.

[FRANCE: The nicest girls ! Also a great
[place! 

[MODEMS: Too expensive...

[GERMAN ALLIANCE: -no comment-

[SNEAKERS: I love (and wear ) them ( but
[they have a ugly smell !)

[YOUR PARENTS: You need them  till  they
[need you. 

[BEST C. PARTY: One  of  the   Flatline-
[Parties was nice.

[YOU IN 10 YEARS: Dead

] KLF: Now, make your choice,and explain
]if necessary...

[TERMINATOR 2 or BLADE RUNNERS:
Terminator II because I have  a  Video-
Copy.


[TLB or OVERLANDERS:
 The Overlanders of the Union , because
after all the success they aren't  big-
headed. ( NOTE from DEF KLF: You  can't
know them and say such a thing ! )


[PUBLIC ENEMY or NWA:
Public  Enemy
because they have understand  that  the
race-problem can only solved  if  both,
black and white people,  work together.
N.W.A. are in the same way  racists  as
the K.K.K. 


[DANCE MUSIC or ROCK:
Both , depends in which mood I'm.

[BIG MAC or PIZZA:
                Pizza (self explaining)

            Coca Cola (self explaining)

[1 night with your girlfriend OR  a huge
[copy party  with all the elite european
[st bands:
A hard question. But I would prefer the
girl.

] KLF: I hope you enjoyed  answering  my
]questions... Did you ?  Okay , if there
]are questions  you  would like  to  ask
]yourself & answer,it's now or never...


 T.G.A.:Thanx for reading this....
