In April 2012, the Sinclair ZX Spectrum was 30 years old. Many people that hold creative, technical, and cultural positions now are, in some way or another, indebted to the little machine that plugged into the living room telly and caused pandemonium if someone stood on the space bar whilst a game was loading. Horizons was an event from Imperica, held at BFI Southbank to celebrate the Spectrum's 30th anniversary, and presented by Leila Johnston and Paul Squires. This talk is by Alex May, an international digital artist, about how growing up with Clive Sinclair's early computers influenced his art practise today.
