As innovative as they are influential, Kraftwerk's contribution to the development of electronic music since their formation in 1970 remains unsurpassed. Having inspired everyone from Bowie to Coldplay, Siouxsie to Radiohead, this bizarre collective have also proven partly responsible for entire genres to develop – electronica, techno and synth-pop to name but three. This documentary reviews the career and music of Kraftwerk, from their inception in the late 1960s (as pre-Kraftwerk ensemble Organization), through their most celebrated period in the mid 1970s, and culminating with their resurgence during the 1980s with the popularity of synth-pop and techno.

CGW was one of the world's longest running computer gaming magazines, beginning in 1981 and sadly closing down in 2006. It was an industry shaping publication. Over the course of the magazine's run they looked at the most basic text parsing adventures, the dawn of advanced 2D, the beginning of 3D, and ended in the era of Unreal Tournament III and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Their editors were instrumental in forming some of the first computer game conventions for game developers and companies, as part of their dream of popularizing all electronic gaming.
