Howdy

Hi there. It's my first post here, so lemme introduce myself. I'm angelo, or æn.d͡ʒə.loʊ, or unj, a founder of KSKPD, the group behind polish unesco application.

I'm in process of researching some early-computing stuff, including an idea planted by @Krill and @bitfat, that the default narrative of "In the beginning it was a cracker scene, that developed into demoscene later because $REASONS" might be worth challenging.

I might be asking in various sub-forums questions around data on this site, but while I used to be a part of demoscene as a coder (1995+), I also owned PC exclusively since my first computer in like 1990. I skipped 8bit phase completely, so please bare with me, if the questions sound obvious or straight-up outrageously naive :)

And my point is still that the moment a separate "cracker scene" was born (even if only as handy catchword) was the moment a separate "demoscene" was born, and vice-versa.
Both "emanated" from a common ancestor which had had a "legal section" all along.
Siblings, not parent and child.


While I see how to a certain point this "fervour" question can apply to myself also, may I ask: Where does this fervour you seem to harbour come from? Why are you so adamant to prove the mainstream "creation myth" wrong? Let's put aside the fact that I think that you are wrong. I know I repeat myself, but I'll say it again: I don't think it's doable. Replacement of the creation myth that is. Why stir the pot for no constructive reason?

You seem to have answered your own question there.

Yeah, I guess I'm too dumb to see the answer.

My fervour is a reaction to your fervour.
The source of your fervour is still unknown to me.
You're the disruptive innovator, the pot-stirrer, the truth fighter of this story, I'm a mere average joe conservative piece of rock.

I find it very unlikely that a German-language print magazine (or media in general) "invented" the demoscene.

I'd say the opposite: 64er in particular invented quite some things when it comes to "the scene". "Geschichten aus dem Sumpf" *shudder*

What would be actually somewhere interesting though: when did people start talking about "demoscene" rather than just "scene" anyway? I don't remember "demoscene" from the 80s at all - it was all "scene".

As You’ve repeatedly shown us, You are desperately out of your depth here buddy. Chill. Go Google “scientific theory” while chilling. Don’t troll.

I think demoscene is probably an "invention" of the amiga / pc scene. I still feel its stupid, its still just scene to me. In the c64 community It was scene only even around 96ish imho when I have joined the "scene" on irc, releasing demos, etc.

This I agree on.
