<What is noKrew ?
   

   NoKrew is an association of two friends : Kaze and Nukije, you've probably noticed the initials of our nicknames are NK, as for NoKrew! 
I (kaze) wanted to make some good kode with good graphics to make demos, or something like that. Now we've decided to make a site that would be the center of our activities. We both are freelance WebDesigners, I am a graphist, every image you'll find throught theses pages are drawn, or rendered by me. 

We've not done much work, and no project has been realized, because we weren't very concerned in NoKrew. NoKrew ment NoKode too... 

<NoKrew's history
<NoKrew's history

  NoKrew was born in 1995. Two guyz are at the origin of NoKrew's creation, thought they are still the unique members, they are known as Kaze and Nukije. We've met at the 'Lycée Fustel de Coulanges' where we've studied in an European class, which ment an English-oriented class. We've become best friends, Nukije was the most brillant student of the classroom, even if he didn't work hard, I was the worst, and didn't worked at all, preferring to go out and enjoy 'La dolce vita'. 

  NoKrew was our first opportunity to start something, me as the graphist and coder, Nukije as main coder. In fact, Nukije didn't know how to code, and so he learned Pascal, C and C++. We wished we could manage to build a complete astounding PC Demo, or a Falcon Demo (for me, Kaze, as I was a happy Falcon owner at that time), but it was far too difficult, and we were so lame ! At that time we used to organise weekly 'Coding Parties' at my parent's, where we finally weren't koding at all, but rather passing time drinking Beer over Beer. It's not without a slight nostalgia that I remember the good ol' time.

 

One year later, I got a PeeCee, which allowed me to make some raytracing with POV and TrueSpace, as to begin working with Photoshop and Illustrator, my Falcon wasn't fast enough to fullfill to the Raytracing requirements, for instance, a simple sphere with reflection with a checker plane below took more than 28 hours raytracing time for a pitiful resolution of 320x200 pixels ! 

  So we began doing some more serious things, such as trying to make dos graphic libraries for the C++ language, we've named them the 'NK Libs'. They were very slow but rather simple to manage, and didn't support a resolution different from the 320x200 standard mode, even if we made it expandable. After having tried and tested some Pascal routines, we've decided to port the NK Libs to this language. Nukije have done the most of the work, he even made a 3D library, which was something very difficult regarding to our mathematical knowledge. Since that, NoKrew didn't produce anything, and I quite stopped coding.

Now, in the year 1998, NoKrew rebirths. I've made great progresses in Art, so I'm able to do quickly great graphics and animations, I've acquired what I would call a pre-mature Art, which means I've always a lot of progress to make until I can say I'm an artist, but it seem sufficient for Web-Page design ;). 

  I and Nukije are now ready to build this site, and make it a kind of Delirium zone on the InterNet, where we would talk about art, society, way of life, travels and cyberkultür. We have some projects such as building some applets and design some web pages, for this look at the Pprojekts page on this site. 
 
   We hope you find the design good enough, that the contents is interesting and that you'll come on see us@noKrew ! 

Thanks for being interested ! 

 

Now, in 1999, the noKrew site hasn't really grown, and has not been the place I wanted it to be. But wait, Nukije is very busy with his chemist studies... I have time to focus on my site and on nK's one, but without him, there's no chance to be noKrew anymore. So we'll see !
