Description

Britain 1982

Britain had an exceptional year of innovation in 1982, it was the year that the home microcomputer became affordable and available to everyone. From parents using them for business, to children asking parents to buy them to help with their schoolwork, the 8-bit micros of the time would inspire a generation to learn, game, and code!

Despite its small nature as an island in the Atlantic, Britain played a pivotal role in defining the computer industry world wide. Sub £100 computers, built for price yet still not uncommon and working today, an entire generation would become a nation of bedroom coders. 1982 was the first time I could afford to use colour in my digital artworks, artworks that no one understood because they existed only on a cathode ray screen. Today, my entire career is owed to these rubber keyed wonders.

Thanks for looking!
