Future of C64 demos
Just seen this awesome video http://vimeo.com/16219591 and instantly thought that this style is pretty much achievable on C64 (including the soundtrack)... it would be tricky to manage memory though.
Share your thoughts ;-) |

I love it... krill loader for the win here... but it is much work to this and as much as I love it I really love other stuff more... but yeahhh it is so cool! |

Not a lot of loading should be required to do something in that style, it's basically just line-drawing, filling and a little math. Unless you want a sampled soundtrack, but you wouldn't want that, would you?

Not my cup of tea, too glitchy.
I'd prefer something like this in a smooth way.
BTW, the video reminds me of Trans*Form, in a way. |

@perplex: indeed... it looks like a typical 4k approach on pc... a single effect/scene used with a lot of different params plus music sync. |

@ Cresh: yeah, that's nicer... though a bit too minimalistic to make it really entertaining. |

Very cool demo Digger. The future of demo coding is bright. There are many new techniques yet undiscovered. NUFLI was just recently created. Much more is yet to be created. |

The frogs will leap from the roof tops and fly amongst the zinnerdots of the future. Turtles will enjoy their brown eyebrows and make funlove with little doggies everywhere. |

With inspiration like this, no wonder USA demos always seem to have odd designs and weird colours ;-)
Or 'colors'... |

Lovely stuff, Digger. I especially like the soundtrack. Glitch ftw. |

Great synaesthetic effect, but the looks are not my cup of tea. Wouldn't be switching frames as fast as needed on C64, though, you cannot draw more than a few lines in a frame. |

I'll be honest about this. I "HATE" these kind of demos and I don't see an "achivement" in them. Btw, I'm not talking about demos like Trans*Form. Trans*Form has a neat design and it's not in a "noise demo" category. I think some of you already noticed that I "HATE" speedfisters, jumalauta and groups like these. "eye fisting effects" are not hard to make and they don't look good. Many of noise demo makers tries to hide behind the synch but the point is, you can make a great synch with "not shitty looking effects" as well.
I know my message is not so friendly and look like a little disrespectful but read my first sentence of my post again... |

I think you need to grow older to get tired of cleaned up stuff, and see the beauty of these:

also I guess its harder to make the noise look nice & good, than make look clean stuff nice ? :)
I like both styles if its done well. |

But this demo looks good, the stuff in Digger's link doesn't. Of course, it's just taste in the end. |
