Long term Amiga users will remember the unveiling of the Commodore
A1000 on July 23rd 1985 at the New York Lincoln Centre. As part of the
demonstration of the Amigas ability Commodore invited Andy Warhol to
create a portrait of Debbie Harry, lead singer of Blondie using Island
Graphics Graphicraft. This was accompanied by a full score synthesised
by Roger Powell and Mike Boom, author of Musicraft.

The interview is scanned from the January/February 1986 of the US
magazine and saved in JPEG format. Hopefully the former publishers of
Amiga World will not mind reproduction of this piece of Amiga history.
