What the fuck with demoparties?
I hope you love racing at different
party? And you wonder where you trample this year? Of course, I
would like to get there, where it will be a lot of People will
be exposed to a lot of cool components work but this year, in
our view the alignment looks very disappointing. For a start
see what tusni are scheduled for Speccy freaks vtechenie year.
Consider, in chronological order of:
Forever 3
Dates: March 15-17
Venue: Zlatovce / Trencin / Slovakia
Platform: Spectrum, C64, Atari
Contact: jurica@sknet.sk (pol ^ pht.sk)
This is one of the few party, which presents all the iron
monster eight-scene. If you round up there, then have a real
chance to communicate with many European sceners working not
only at Speke, and about the famous local
Beer and the dish baked veprevo knee and
has nothing to say. Unfortunately, the Russian sceners,
especially those who live in Urals, there will not go for
purely financial reasons, since according to our calculations,
to perform trip Moscow-Forever-Moscow + Hawk and a drink, you
should not less than 300 bucks + TRAVEL passport, which is not
all due to the slope from the army.
But as time goes on, and our magazine
still does not come out, this party has already passed, and we
all have a certain amount of works that can be pinned.
It is a pity that we were not there.
ASCII ^ 02
Date: April 27
Venue: Izhevsk / Russia
Platform: Spectrum
Contact: himik@udm.net (himik ^ pos-wt)
This party steep that it is clearly only the Spectrum, so
do not will break off at the left, not
entering our comp people. In our
opinion, this party will be the most benevolent atmosphere,
despite the fact that Some time ago, all we could observe the
development of dispute between the X-Team and POS-WT on the
organization of the tusni. However, to date, the friction
between them ended, and most likely the organization this year
will be on the order of higher than in the past. It should also
be noted that Izhevsk is located geographically advantageous,
since, in principle, available very large mass of people, both
from the west Russia and the east, and about Samara
Perm, Yoshkar-Ola, Chelyabinsk, Kazan and
Ulyanovsk and has nothing to say. For a nice chip should
include the promised free Hawk. The truth is somewhat
surprising registration system works, which implies that it is
cheaper (30 p). just hang out, than to exhibit (15 p. for each
job).
2nd International
Sinclair 'Sam days
Dates: April 27-28
Venue: Stein / Urmond / Limburg / Holland
Platform: ZX81, Spectrum 48/128, Sinclair QL,
Sam Coup
Contact: http://www.hobby.nl/ ~ sinclair-gg/engels /
issdnews-eng.htm
This party will organize HCC Sinclair-gg/Netherlands,
Spectrum Profi Club from Cologne, German ZX81 team. Actually
it's just meeting, ie no component
There will be no. People are going to
some Dutch motel, bring a bunch of different of Moldova iron
and hang out, playing the game and watching demos. Also, there
promised to sell the very same hardware, literature, and
compacts with the software and the emulsion. As the organizers
say, the party will attend all local elite ZX81
scene. To get to this party of the average Russian sceners just
unreal, and so it would not be bad to bring with a Pentagon +
demos 95-01 years and destroy all the bourgeois coolness of our
code. Available in the free market crap High quality also makes
us once again sorry about the unreality of this trip (this year
for sure).
Millenium 1902
Dates: May 4-5
Venue: Minsk / Belarus
Platform: Spectrum, PC, Amiga
Contact: zxrulez@tut.by, zx@ring.by (Paul Pavlov)
In principle, this is also one of the most
challenging party. This time, organizers promise much
nazhiratsya not directly Place to party during the regular
com and of course to arrange the most ambitious hidden part of
all other party that is very real, given the broad nature of
the Belarusian Minsk and the cheapness of local alcoholic
beverages. In principle, this party can take a peek and
bourgeoisie, to talk to that are also not bezinteresno. Also,
thanks to mother sponsors (Buck, etc.) promise the various
steepness.
Twilight Demoparty 2002
Dates: July 6-7
Location: Grodno / Belarus
Platform: Spectrum, PC, Amiga
Contact: breeze@tut.by (b42/Fishbone)
BreeZe gained experience during the cc01 and with Savers
Alliance decided zababahat own tusnyu, apparently to save money
on tickets though we can hardly believe that to them
trample anyone except for the Belarusians (k
had already departed after the celebration of the next
Millennium) and a small a handful of Poles, as the geographical
location of Grodno (near the Polish border) and newborn
Twilight little favorable to the emergence of desire to visit
this party at the Russian scenery. Also troubling is too dense
(Up to 3-5 minutes) a schedule of
party. Usually it's all dirty unforeseen linings of
BreeZe which should be well known. Although, perhaps, this
party will be held in height and will bring us a lot of quality
work. Wait and see.
Syndeecate Demoparty 2002
Dates: 16-18 August
Location: Czech Republic, Roznow pod Radhostem,
1.hostinsky pivovar / spolecensky dum /
Platform: Spectrum, PC, Amiga
Contact: tdm@quick.cz (TDM)
Here, we also do not predviditcya hike, but it will not
prevent us to send their work to further advance the cake
on the European party, that in the future may allow you to see
our favorite comp in the hardware list of such party as Mekka
Symposium, Assembly, etc. Write until about
It is nothing, because No we do not report
read due to the fact that past Syndeecates were exclusively pc
oriented and few of us were interested.
Now is separately address the issue of last year's party,
at the moment have not yet declared for the:
Paradox
Kam we all know, last year he
was held in Rostov-on-Don, July 21-22, and
was pretty good. At the time of
magazine organizers could not tell us anything specific about
the preparation of Paradox in the year.
Phat
With him the same situation - nothing
is not known, but should take into account razdolbaystvo
Raver'a, which reports his party almost immediately
before its passage. So this year it is likely we can expect
again somewhere at the end of September. The truth is
mention that Phat - is less a demoparty in the usual sense of
the word, but rather informal communication with different
scenery platforms, accompanied by consumption
various stimulants, than it
and interesting for us. However, to get to
Phat us is very problematic because of the lack of passports
TRAVEL (problems with the army).
CaFe 2002
Cafe is back! One of the most successful
the organization (according to eyewitnesses) pati
revived this year! Well she still
and the fact that Kazan is not so far
like so many other interesting places, there
heat, there will again be spec - all of these
advantages will enable many people to come and
cool delay. The only negative - we
do not yet know the exact date of implementation, but
most likely all will be in late summer / early fall, and it's a
good chance to put work that failed to chaos constructions (?).
Chaos Constructions
The most visited in the past three years the Russian
party, which has brought us all a huge number of quality
releases. Unfortunately, in this year due to lack of funding
has not yet announced to the conduct, but from the private
conversation with Unbel! ever'om we learned that at present
there is an active search sponsors. If this issue will be
resolved favorably, then / IC will be conducted last year by
the organizers on the same program as always. By the way, as he
said D-Man/PCB, they are eager to support
CC release next masterpiece. So
We hope for the best, because as the saying goes: only five of
the local party - it's good, but a global tusnya vsetaki always
rallied the scene together.
From all the above, each is free to
conclusion, where he will go in this
year. Here, of course, it all depends on personal
preferences, cash and free time. Personally, we're going to
visit available to us from the party - Millenium and if
Of course, this will happen - CC02. So,
demoscene never die, speccy rulez 4eva and
In general let us hang out together.
By the way, based on the latter thesis,
in our opinion is worth all the organizers
ALL spekovskih party to coordinate and
zafigachit green wave, ie to carry out
his party gradually over time, so that
space could have time to visit
all of them. Such as Twilight would be worth to spend about two
weeks after Millenium, because the demos is still being written
for specific party, but we could go to Grodno directly from
Minsk. Also, we would happy to go to ASCII (if
have not agreed in advance with Pavlov)
but as the difference between tusney in Izhevsk
Minsk and the whole week, then fly back
would have to be on a plane ... It is a pity that we
not millionaires, and our parents too.
So, gentlemen, the organizers do
findings and the whole scene obespechte nishtyak on
the full program at least next year.
