Demoscene is alive

Image: Back to the PET screenshot from the demo by shiru

It is cool that in our modern times there are still some folks who write really small yet capable computer programs for fun and for competition, and then publish them far and wide. I want to be part of it. I want to keep demoscene alive. Because I know how much we actually need lightweight computer programs in the era of overcomplicated technology. Demoscene deserves your attention.

yes! I used to have a co worker that was very active in the C64 demo scene. These folk are special, in a good way. very creative and resource conscious.They're the way forward

how do u want to start?

which computer do you rove enough to start coding for it?

i love oric atmos, i love 8bit ataris. i probably would love c64 but i never saw one irl.

i used spectrum clone and i used some soviet home machines.

i think i also rove ataci st, but i guess it is too modern for me to make demos for it.

i would like to code for something more simple and primitive. (:
