Yes, i was a little bit lazy last week, sorry folks. Here are some eyecandys from last months NVision’08 demoparty. No idea what the hell i’m talking about? Don’t run away, i’ll tell you and promise that this stuff is worthwhile.

If you know what a demo is, feel free to skip this part. In short terms, a demo (as in computer arts) is a selfrunning program showing off a combination of music, graphics and effects in realtime. Pretty much like a music video in a way. There are certain categories with different limitations such as 64kb which basicly means the program has to fit into an executable file of 64kb. The opposite would be the regular Demo which isn’t limited in filesize.  Never question the “meaning” of a demo (there usually is none), just take it as artsy, computer generated something and you’ll most likely able to enjoy them. PS: Decent computer setup and graphics card is often necessary in order to run the .exe’s. Which is why i’ll embed videos of those here.
