Viznut

   Viznut (real name Ville-Matias Heikkilä) is a Finnish [1]demoscene
   programmer, [2]hacker and [3]artist that advocated high technological
   [4]minimalism. He is known for example for his [5]countercomplex blog,
   co-discovering [6]bytebeat, creating [7]IBNIZ and involvement in
   [8]permacomputing wiki. In his own words, he believes much more can be
   done with much less. He also warns of [9]collapse
   (http://viznut.fi/en/future.html). According to his [10]Fediverse page he
   lives in Turku, Finland, was born around 1977 and has been programming
   since the age of seven.

   { Lol he's not responding to my emails :] ~drummyfish }

   His work is pretty based, in many ways aligned with [11]LRS, he
   contributed a great deal to minimalist technology. Unfortunately in some
   ways he also seems pretty retarded: he uses [12]facebook, [13]twitter and
   [14]github and also mentions "personal pronouns" on his twitter xD Pretty
   disappointing TBH. This would make Viznut a [15]type A fail.

   His personal site is at http://viznut.fi/en/ and his blog at
   http://countercomplex.blogspot.com/. He collects many files at
   http://viznut.fi/files/, including very interesting writings about
   demoscene, programming experiments etc.

   In 2011 he released [16]IBNIZ, a tiny [17]SDL [18]virtual machine and a
   language that's meant as a platform for creating [19]demos. Also in 2011
   he was involved in the discovery of [20]bytebeat, a way of creating music
   with extremely simple [21]C expressions -- later he published a paper
   about it. In 2012 he founded [22]Skrolli, a magazine about
   sustainable/non-consumerist technology. In about 2019 he released
   PC-lamerit, an animated series about 90s computer hackers, made as an
   executable computer program -- it looks pretty cool. He also created
   UNSCII, a fixed-width font usable for [23]ANSI art.
