Aloalo International Co., Ltd. had some eerie bangers, and by bangers I mean extremely tight artsy shit mixed with 90s desktop companions like BAKA VIDEO DRUG and UNMOVABLE CUTIE MASCOTS. Their website, other than a 2008 post to let people know mail ordering was out, was last updated in 1998. It includes details about their floppy disks & CDs, as well as various Hideki Nakazawa artifacts--including postcards and zines. You can find Nakazawa's homepage, portfolio, and bio here. Glad to report Nakazawa is still very active--not to mention prolific.
My favorite entry may be the one for SCREWY ANIMATIONS which reads:
The first work of "Abstract animation of automatism." It is such a depaysement as caracters' motion and sound are abstract (not purposeful) and automatic (not certain). Let's drive out all the storyness from multimedia!
Here's an Archive link with .img files and disk covers and so on. Credits and shoutout to @dog for her scans/dumps.
(also, shoutout to @lmichet for the Interesting Link hashtag. It's good.)
