Classic stuff (saw this long ago), although one too many flew over poor Andy's cuckoo's nest, I did love his ramblings that he "never painted on a computer before and waited to do this kind of thing on the Amiga"...  lol  

What the hell though... if anyone else would have done such a simple colour fill over an early digitisation, nobody would have ever noticed.  lol  Only Andy and the Amiga could go to China that way  ;-)

The Andy Warhol move was brilliant, take a not too special thing and make it extraordinary.  What ever happened to the the person that thought this up? More of this marketing and we still would have an Amiga in active development...

It reminds me of Apple, mp3 player were kind of slow on the uptake and then Apple introduced the iPod and suddenly it became cool to have not just an mp3 player but an iPod!

Andy made good use of Amiga Live which did all the work for him!

Wish I still had my Live board.  Lots of fun but limited due to the amount of storage needed for video.  Might be less limited now that storage is larger and cheaper.
