Browser art: Tolia Demidov
Tolia is actually the nickname for Anatoly Demidov. He is born 1988 in Moscow where he still lives and works on his amazing web art projects. Since there is not really a lot of info on Tolia, I contacted him right before he left for St. Petersburg. Here is what we chatted about:
Tell me more about yourself than the fact that you are born 1988.
This summer I finished MPEI (Moscow Technical University) and have a degree of Magister technics and technology. Sometimes I work as a web developer and web designer.
What was the inspiration for the web art projects?
In 2008 I saw a site of Russian art group http://thewebweb.net/, and I wanted to do something similar.
How long did it take to finish them and when did you start working on them?
I made the first site version in 2008. Usually it takes me 1- 3 days to do one project.
What was the process of creating?
It’s always an experiment for me.
