386 DX (real: Alexei Anatoljewitsch Schulgin ; Russian Алексей Анатольевич Шульгин ; * 1963 in Moscow ) is a Russian media artist .
Act
His trademark is that he uses a computer with the Intel 386 DX processor for his performances , which outputs melodies as MIDI and synchronously the speech via an old speech synthesizer software . Another aspect of his show is the visualization of the midi output with the help of the WIMP software , the parameters of which he constantly changes using a keyboard that he wears on his shoulder like a guitar.
The reduction to outdated hardware and software is part of the concept of 386 DX, as is the use of midi files of well-known hits.
The music style is referred to as cyberpunk, which is to be understood as a play on words, and not as a reference to punk or the literary genre cyberpunk .
