What happened to Raster?

I didn't know him either, but I'm saddened to see this.

 

I know I've seen his name around, and I'm thinking he's made hardware, games, demos, done some cool hacks, or something. Will someone please post a little about what he did on the Atari scene? I gather he was pretty good. Sad, this is.

Here is his English language website. Hopefully someone will mirror it in case it goes offline.

 

Very sad to hear of Raster's death. I knew him mainly from his work on the MultiJoy interface (he gave me some assistance in building one of my own), but of course he made many other contributions to the Atari 8-bit computers. My limited interactions with him gave me the impression that he was brilliant, talented, and always willing to help other classic computing enthusiasts.

Thanks for the links to his site. Wow, he was quite a fellow! What a loss (to humanity), and a loss to the Atari community.

 

It looks like he (and perhaps another) created the Sdrive!!!?? I had no idea! Such genius, this is perhaps my favorite A8 device!

 

:(
