The demo scene is a unique world where creativity and intellect collide. It's a place for artistic and technical rivalry, evolving from simple digital signatures in software to the vibrant, competitive showcases of the 80s and 90s.

In this session I'll highlight some of the most impressive demos, dive into the art of live demo creation, and explore various topics including:

The demo scene's evolution
Iconic demos from C64, Amiga, and PC
Classic effects: Plasma, Moiré, Fire, and more
The creative process behind these digital art pieces
Modern demo-making techniques

I got started back in the 90s, and I have made a couple of winning demos in my later years. Come join me on a fun and exiting hour of celebrating creative programming and the beauty of algorithms. The scene is not dead, and we are hiring...

This is a lighthearted talk to show that our craft can be creative, fun and rewarding. It requires the ability to play sound from my machine while presenting.
