Stone Arts (STA, 1993-1995)
Stone Arts was an all-Norwegian demo group, like Andromeda, formed by the best 8 members of Atomic in march 1993. I've made an educated guess that those 8 were Ice, Dolphin, Hugo, Kekken, Shape, Storm, Rozzoe and Syntex. Shortly after, at The Gathering '93, they released their first two demos. ROM #4 announced their death through spokesperson Dolphin. Most members were employed by Funcom.

Group History
- 1994
- Norwegian graphician and cofounder Kekken left to join Talent in February( He was left out in memberlist. Thats some of the reason why he joined a new group). Ranx/Balance was a very shorttime member, and rejoined Balance only days after joining.

- Norwegian graphician Absurd joined from Scoopex in late '94, only to rejoin in early 1995. Norwegians Braintumor and Heywood (music, 12/93) and Niggerjack (code) all joined Gollum. Norwegian founder and editor Dolphin formed the new Atomic with Colorbird/ex Razor 1911.
