A experiment that tries to emulate how would be internet if we used 8 bit computers. Is some sort of media archeology exercise, Web Audio experiment and a tribute to the ZX Spectrum computer.

• All the text is sonified using ZX Spectrum's cassettes encoding

• All images are dithered and downgraded to use the ZX Spectrum's color palette

All these tasks are done in realtime in your computer / mobile device. What has no sense at all
