monochrom interview online // Soviet Game of Future Lost: Our Johannes has been interviewed about 'Soviet Unterzoegersdorf/Sector 1' for mutednoise.com. Intro: "Trying to summarize what Soviet Unterzoegersdorf is about is as easy as pronouncing its name. The free game, created by Austrian art-technology-philosophists monochrom, starts with a straight-forward premise that quickly explodes with quirky humor, challenging stereotypes, and intriguing play. As the name implies, Soviet Unterzoegersdorf tells the fictitious story of the last USSR republic. mutednoise was able to catch up with Johannes Grenzfurthner to talk about the work."
monochrom is an art-technology-philosophy group having its seat in Vienna and Zeta Draconis. monochrom is an unpeculiar mixture of proto-aesthetic fringe work, pop attitude, subcultural science, context hacking and political activism. Our mission is conducted everywhere, but first and foremost in culture-archeological digs into the seats (and pockets) of ideology and entertainment. monochrom has existed in this (and almost every other) form since 1993.
