Does anyone have any advice on how to take a
photograph and display it
on a Commodore 64? I have a rather crazy art project in mind.
Does doing downscaling and color adjustments on a PC/whatever and then spitting the data
across to the C64 count, or do you want to start with a "modern" image on the
C64 side and do all the heavy lifting there?
Also, is speed of display on the C64 side important, or is some kind of
"slow-loading" effect actually a feature?
I figure the heavy lifting will be done on my Mac Pro, and I'll likely start with a
18MP or 36MP image, before converting it to display on the C64.
The C64 seems to just be the appropriate method for displaying the image. It also helps
that the C64 in my darkroom area between my the two enlargers I have setup. The downside
is that the Garage needs to warm up about 20 degree's before I can attempt anything,
so this isn't something I'll be trying anytime soon.
