It's me, Steve Horsley ‘aka’ Horsenburger. I currently reside in the beautiful county of Devon, United Kingdom and in my spare time I make teletext art.
So, let’s go back in time to 1995 when it all started. For there is where I started working with teletext systems for Ladbrokes (so many horses and footballs), I then moved on to work for Teletext Ltd and was very privileged to work occasionally with my bestest friend from school, Paul Rose ‘aka’ Mr Biffo.
My experience at Teletext pretty much swapping horses for palm trees, planes and boats. I then continued to work in teletext for an advertising agency, slowly moving into website design and IT development before drifting away from it totally as it became obsolete.
I wish I had appreciated doing teletext much more at the time, but hey, at least I'm making up for it now and since 2016 I've produced well over 2000 images for fun and commissions.
The resurgence of interest and nostalgia in teletext in the UK over the past few years has been great, I've taken part in Digifest, teletext block parties, and Demo parties, I've also become a contributor to the textmode groups Mistigris and Blocktronics, I've been the artist in residence for Ardtext and helped create the infamous 'Worms' April Fools Jokes for Team 17.
