Name that effect

I would know if there is an usual name related to the cheap and absolutely oldschool fake rastersplit effect you can see in a later loading time in Vector Overdose, or in the most famous Geggin's part of Wonderland VI, which is basically a DYCP.
I searched for waving bars, wobbling bars, whatever-ing bars but nothing has come out :/ Saw that on Atari ST, and its author named it with the horrible definition of *gasp* "distorted rasters".

Since on c64 there is no copper, so we do it using magic, we can call it "copper-field"...

The one on the right should be called a "Grrr-schnig", no reason in particular.

The left one, "squallahfahoochamism" (squaw-lah-fah-loo-chah-ism)... For sure.

+1, me too, being a boutade it's ironically a reasonable matching name :)

I've searched for "fakesplits" as hell 'coz that's the way I used to call'em back in the days, but, having found 0 references, I folded for "Copper Plasma" just because a historical reason exists. Hence, on "another site which is used to tag demos by effects too", I've just added "Copper Plasma AKA Fake Splits" ;)
...ready to swap'em in the case I will find a past reference for it tho...

Weren't those simply called FLI-Splits back then? Using copper on C64 to me doesn't make too much sense imho..

Dano you're right too, but, conceive(!), neither there is FLI!
You know, some effects'names have been assumed from what their resemble, rather than what they truly are.
Groepaz recalled they're known as "rastersplits" since the eras, and of course they are absolutely no rastersplits but they could imitate'em ;)
