Handle id #3665 : Shadow

I don't know how to drop this, but I am devastated. I am very sorry to inform you that Shadow passed away in an accident five days ago. I got the news some minutes ago.

My thoughts go to his family and friends.

Absolute tragic shock :(

His brother has posted a memorial page over at Pouet:

(Sadly it's in Swedish only.)

Terrible news! That is a huge loss, not only to the C64 community but all the other, minor communities who barely ever see a demo production except for the ones Sdw released. In some of those, I'm willing to think he made up for 50-100% of the entire "scene".

Much love to those who were closest to him. His creative handiwork with bytes on the C64 and indeed beyond was simply brilliant. Rest easy, Shadow.

Andreas, my dear friend. I started this sad and snowy day watching Pseudocode. It was my first demo on the C64, and I was so proud of what we had accomplished together. I remember us starting off with one screen, but then the project just evolved through the sharing of creative ideas. You were so easy to work with, so kind and open and patient. We met on several occasions, and you were always interesting to talk to. You were quiet, shy even, and not into the whole hustle and bustle of partying. However, when we sat down and took the time to talk about ideas, weird platforms and projects, I saw excitement in your eyes. I am so sad that you are gone, but I am very happy to have known you. You mastered every piece of hardware on this earth. This evening I will take a walk, and I am sure that when looking up, I will see a beautiful plasma effect in the sky.

Such sad news again... these seem to be coming more and more frequently, sadly.

RIP Shadow and my condolences to his family and friends. I don't think I met him personally but I always liked his productions especially on those "weird" platforms he was so fond of.

@Archmage, beautifully said.

Really deeply sadden and shocked to hear these tragic news,
can't really believe it... I will fondly remember those
great times working on productions together and how you
tirelessly surprised us all by bringing demos on new and
exotic platforms, something which you really seemed to
enjoy.

A sad day indeed, you will be sorely missed Andreas...
