Some Rust cargo files modified 1970, 1973 and some Chrome extensions modified 1980. Suspicious. Actual old stuff I recognise and copied down the years:
* 1980 STOMP.MOD music file[1]
* 1987 - hitchhik.exe the HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy text-based adventure game.
* 1988 - QuickBasic 4.5
* 1990 - a bunch of Screamtracker S3M/Mod/XM music files.
* 1991 - Moneky Island original SCUMM game.
The oldest which I created is some QuickBasic code which says 1999 but I think it was a couple of years older. A drawing and some Python and C# from 2002. Looks like my code from the mid 1990s and any school essays of the 1990s are long gone. About the oldest emails I have are 2002 as well.
[1] "stomp da diko-tek #hoffman / mono formerly known as.. dreamfish! / mono this is true minimal techno. this track started with a sample from retro dna - mix 2. i took a 2 beat loop, contured, distored & filtered it to create a clanky hard-edged sound (sample 3). the rest you'll have to work out yer self. surf the mono website www.scene.org/mono". That dates back before I was born.
- crtasm 2y agowere there .mod tracks before 1987? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOD_(file_format) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOD_(file_format)
- jodrellblank 2y agoI guess not; looking around I found that mod online here: https://netlabelarchive.org/1998/03/06/mtk-rel14/ https://netlabelarchive.org/1998/03/06/mtk-rel14/ and it's March 1998. I wouldn't believe all the MODs dated 1990 anymore either then, though one I've checked is from about then ( https://demozoo.org/music/97104/ https://demozoo.org/music/97104/ ), another is 1992 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oadg4mc9ww https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oadg4mc9ww - check this out it still holds up today despite being 4 channel 30+ years old, in a way that the techno one really doesn't). Monkey Island was released in 1990 so that could be accurate, QuickBasic 4.5 was released 1988 (although no way I had it in 1988). Summary: the oldest things I have are my brother's mod interest, my coding interest, and some PC games.
- crtasm 2y agoNice track and always lovely to have that flashback to the Impulse Tracker UI!
