... Chaos Constructions'000 demoparty report ...
$% CyberJack, 2000
August 19-20 in St. Petersburg was the most 'Majeure' demopati
in ex-Soviet Union this year ... So you can type in a few words
to explain happened. Nizheposleduyuschy tekstik is nothing like
short (even too) report on this event.
Need these things to someone thread or not? In principle, I
write a report intended long before a trip to Peter:), but
obsessed for this matter only after realizing the fact of
misunderstanding shir.nar.massami all that was in St.
Petersburg. Yes, honestly, then as a nation have not personally
visited the party, can understand this?
It also appeared that I personally want to tell about the
results travel heap of people (do not pile a heap, but still
decent). My same legendary laziness well just not allowing you
to spend Tuyev Khuchua time to repeat the same. Compromise is
a single presentation and publishing. And I feel good and you
ok:)
With the entry, type, all ... Let's go!
Prerequisites to all this ugliness appeared very long ago.
After a disastrous 999-year (in terms of demopati) people
decided to This year, go to St. Petersburg almost uniquely.
Important role played in this rather large activity of both the
organizers and many volunteers. So
or another, but most people did not think the question 'where
go ', and' to go or not go at all. "
Many people decide for themselves the right and began to
prepare for the trip advance. Our people on the same perm old
habit of putting off decision until the last moment and begin
to address the issue only at the end of July. I originally
never intended to either go because of the wildest problems
with shortages of cash. But succumbing to malicious propaganda
by Unbeliever'a bordering intimidation and blackmail:) all the
same decided.
And the problem with money ... The problem with money was easy
solvable. It turns out that in order to pocket that a thread
zvyakalo and rustling, we can get a job!
Work ... How many years have I managed to evade this problem and
for you ... To get the most out of this dismal
things I found myself very stsenovuyu work. I got a job
loader! Judge himself - programmer, engineer, accountant
work can any one, but try popahat a month as a loader!
Despite the free bodybuilding, this lesson is mainly
strongly napryazhnoe and tyagomotnoe. Bunch of negative
impressions, and all just for the sake of a couple of days to
go to Peter ...
Surprising to many trick was a problem with the ticket ...
Well, who knew that Peter aims to leave so many
people. Impression that Peter is not confined demopati,
but also the Olympics, rock and pop stars, free
rejuvenation - all at the same time in late August. One
word - tickets straight from Perm to St. Petersburg in late July
It was impossible to get it: (Yes, and in other cities were the
same problems ...
With the tickets we're done and life went on. There have been
attempts make a demo for zx, but ... mainly because of my
employment demos was not: (All this is purely for you to know
who's to blame:)))
In general, it's all Bayda ... Given simply for the sake of
completeness, read it was not necessary:), etc. etc. All
business started only on August 17 at the time of landing on a
train Serov, Moscow ...
A trip to Moscow in memory of his only note the lengthy and
boredom. Of these 23 hours is nothing good I can not say.
Bad as many (such as in Kirov beer bad !!!), but
who cares ...
'Moscow - the capital of our
country ...'
(C) CyberJack
Well, that Moscow ... The city as a city ... 'Poor little, but
neatly' :))), If seriously, at first glance there
globalization and the smell of money ... Convey 'this' words
difficult, Yes, and feel like:) In short, all who cares, come
to Moscow personally ...
In Moscow we made a small walk through the streets and shops,
snack and again in a way. From Moscow to St. Petersburg, we
decided to move with the help of corporate train 'Youth'. This
decision is was due to our propensity for pontovosti, and still
lack tickets for other trains:)
Train firm has provided all required of him comfortable, so
that our plans for 'pobaragozit' remains
unfulfilled ... We are pretty well fed and watered,
Yes, and pretty good lucky:) But in anticipation of
forthcoming in Peter rampage time dragged on terror as
slowly ... With sadness we Dizmal'om steamed smoked a pack
cigarettes (incidentally - we non-smokers:).
Peter
When podezzhanii to Peter our attention was occupied by a small
fence:) Outwardly, he had no idea of anything special
somewhere along the belt man, metal, on wooden poles,
painted in green ... All chip in its length. This
fence stretched in the last five hours!
The one who paved, was a great Funny, because quite
often cheated on his fence parallel to railroad tracks and
rounding the standing trees and shrubs:) Anyway, unanimously
it was decided that 'we see ourselves first
Attractions Peter (well or field )'...
! _Vnimanie_! Immediately make a reservation in order to avoid
different naponyatok ... Over the almost three days I have seen
and talked with a bunch of people. Many of them will be
mentioned in this report ... But because of Trouble my leaky
memory possible (even more so - required!) mistakes in
identifying them. People who do not hold on me for this evil
... If I was going to pre-roll record, then can be walked with
a voice recorder, spoke from notes, not to drink beer and
something stronger than, well, everything. I also acted as
Private hell-raisers - no better and no worse than most ... In
general, I do not write about how it was and how I remember how
it was.
Stop - Peter:) Coming out of the transport, look for the crowd
of people suspicious-looking ... We just had promised to meet
quite a lot of people - myself MMA and the people of Sage, Maxx
and Nik-O from Krasnodar, Strake of the Destruction Team, and
also seemed to be together with them dudes from the CPU and
Accept Corp. In the umpteenth time, I realized that can not be
so naive and trusting the word:) Well, even though we were
greeted by ...
During the meeting we should like to thank the following
people: Strake ^ DT (Which we have not learned the fuss:),
Justinas and ZSV of Constellation, Dr.Max think of Global
(???), and a couple of White Russians (The depth of the
concepts that are hidden in this word, you will almost below).
Without giving us time to recover, we are driven into the
underground and the whole bunch went to party_place ...
Interestingly, but only in a subway car began discussing
reasonableness of an immediate trip to the cinema 'Dawn'.
Judging to talk of the people, terrible things happening there
- crowd number of under 200 people drank vodka, preparing for
the next Day!
Despite the strong pull 'fun' together with all two
day trip to the train made themselves felt, and we politely
chose more than another alternative. While that means 'chosen'?
Us just unloaded at a station and forced to go
surface of the earth ... :)))
As it turned out, we moved toward the hostel of a school xs
institution, where a temporary resident of the People
Constellation_team. Purchased on the road indispensable
attributes for the fruitful Russian rest and after waiting
several minutes, during which mollify incorruptible vahtersha,
we found ourselves in a place where A few lucky to live during
the school year.
New Alphabet inside does not particularly distinguished, it was
like everywhere else - that is all. Standing in two rows, we
could hardly clogged six of one room, where some particularly
resourceful student could put not only a bed, but also a
cabinet and two tables! Apparently there and had to pass our
first night in St. Petersburg ...
It was not there:) Just a couple of seconds, said dude
performing the duties of commandant (or type it). He gives us
culturally informed that we can hang out just before the hour
of the night, Bearing that in the calculation of current time
around eleven, just and irrevocably breaks off all hopes of a
brief but fruitful sleep. It was therefore decided not to waste
time in vain, and do 'Rest':)
Interestingly, we were lucky, or the Muscovites in life are
doomed to miserable vodyaru? 'Crystal' rulez of course, but
shir.nar.massy drink that cheaper, but not that quality.
Kilogram as the Moscow vodka taken as normal, in principle,
head (about 90 USD) instantly abhorred all. Of course, we won,
but no pleasure is not got ...
At one o'clock we, as promised, put on the street. Tour
by Peter, the search of the Neva, the tasting of local beer
(surprisingly low price, but as it turned out the appropriate
quality:) - took the next three hours. By five o'clock we were
already at the Moscow Station ...
At the station we had to, because at five o'clock came the
train, privozyaschy on his zx-Muscovites and people from nearby
cities. A little later drove the rest of Permian (4d rulez!:)
Why they would not meet (luckily nothing to do anyway)? Similar
thought we warmed up to the train's arrival. Apparently, I too
hard man, as simple and terrifying wild hoarse: (But
this did not prevent me to wait and meet ... Who but I do not
met:)))
Came to quite a lot of people from which to my shame, I
learned a few: (((Not many - it Wlodek Black (it will be
interesting read the new Nicron), Fil ^ Antares, Hardvwave Crew
(Steel Drugon, Deejuize, Mitchell), Raid, 4d:). Identify
rest, I prevented the arrival of themselves Eternity Industry!
Wicked rumor claimed that EIshniki scored on spec, demos from
them will not and no one at all of them to the party will not
come - so it was just fuckin cool to see and hear a rebuttal to
all this. A Sair00s'a words that deme made and brought in
advance persuaded me that I do not come in vain (for some
reason I up to this point it seemed that we shall this year
will be small, and even fewer good [???]).
In every conversation, and went almost an hour. Then people
split who went to a party (at 6 am:), who was buying tickets
(those same EIshniki), we also Rushed back to the hostel ...
In the hostel we were faced with an insurmountable obstacle in
the person already another, more ferocious vahtershi. Ignore
us, she flatly refused to ... Justinas ZSV and went for our
bags and warm tea, while we were sitting at some table in front
of the watch. But looking at our frostbitten face for 10
minutes and heard zamorochennye our answers with regards to the
purpose of our visit to St. Petersburg and hanging out in the
hold, vahtersha (same people) relented and Let us drink tea.
Hour and a half and we were drinking:)))
Here, you are now sitting in front of the monitor, you read my
ravings and think: 'What the # $ X, he wrote it? It has the
same relation to the party, as I do ':))) and I will explain
this fact. I'm writing a report especially for those who are
not personally present at the party. If you been there, then
... You are not forced to read:)
If you stayed on August 19-20 at home, then ... This is for you
party held for two days from 12:00 to 19:00 - for me it all
events 17 to 22 August merged into non-stop, for even the bed
was once. Throw something out of this report, of course you
can, but ... Okay, I will not swear:)
Sit within the four walls we soon bored, and we went
on party_place. Again the trip by subway (minus one chip for
RR 5), and we are already somewhere on the outskirts of the
city (not quite). On stop waiting for the bus, we came and met
with dude, call names Dj Shlang, also attending the CC000.
Despite its PC-shnost, memories of the sinter he kept a very
positive, and generally the 'right man'. Immersed in
bus, we went!
About ten minutes and we have in place ... Movies, appeared
before eyes, consistent with our Perm 'Mountain'. To
imagine 'this' visit the most terrible of the theater
remote from the center of your city's sleeping area - match
guaranteed for 95 per cent. Wonder's true for most
present at the party was not, because people to understand that
good Cinema enough that we do not need, so no one and did not
give any for what Grandma:)
Personally, I was surprised at the lack of crowds ... Where are
those two hundred people, who here yesterday a little ...? :)
Everything explained released EA ... Firstly, the people were
not two hundred and fifty people of all. Secondly, it was not
the people, and Belarusians:))) Duc, the Belarusians such as
sleeping in the hall (who can), and the rest are treated all
the same. Now merrily to remember that while the difference
between the Belarusians and Rusichi no feeling:)
People began slowly to gather ... Rarely leaving the people -
EA, MMA, Phantom Lord and MOT - which many initially thought
organizers of the gathering and spoke different
interesting things. What preselekta in the schedule was and
never will be, that music preselektilas night literally 15-20
seconds Mouzon, which will be 10 demos! that there deme of
Progress!!!, that compo-machine is not Scorpion with GMX, and
the Pentagon (and not BAC, and ACB), the projector is hooked up
with grief in half, that chunks of 4 * 4 approximately five
inch floppy disk:) And a lot more then ...
The people came almost everywhere, whence it was possible.
Remember offhand any zx-group, now active, it
representatives were here. So I probably will no longer be
specify nicknames and commands, except for special occasions:)
The relatively quietly approached DR'ovtsy ... Arty Noonzen
himself with I said hello, and in response to a question about
brazen Scenergy # 2 replied: "YES!" A fact issue as much the
second issue of the stsenovogo magazine can not but rejoice.
Yes, and content, despite the some obsolete, is still very much
interested (really!!!).
With regards to release ... On the background of a hungry for
information of the last CC000 was the year of miracles in this
field. Scenergy # 2, Buzz # 19, Adventurer # 11, ZxPower # 4 -
these are things that are distributed to the party. At the
party did not appear KrNews # 13 and Insanity # 7 (due to
something which Trouble). And how many newspapers will appear
after ... Here's an example that are you reading now:)))
Expelled from the hall of the Belarusians ... I was in the year
/ IC was not, so somehow I missed a deaf ear to their
pathological propensity to drink. Not even so - I thought about
the printed these things are typical for all Slavs habit, so to
speak feature of rest for body and soul. How wrong I was:) In
fact, actually if rus.narod to the party drank for personal
enjoyment, then belorus.narod always drank. Fell asleep again,
and drank. Legendary words 'a pair of drops' were saying ...
Should not be the way to think that I have something against
Belarusians. On Actually they are right dude. First, we must be
able to live (Much to drink, while not able to drink:).
Secondly, they discharged the tension is gradually emerging in
the party (especially On the second day). Third, whether in
their background so easy seemed to be either really drunk at
the party but almost was not. Belarusians themselves in any
state to behave decently - even amazing:) If you're reading
this fuckin report, you know you (Belarusian) rulez! Although
it is time to learn to drink ...
Meanwhile, stand quietly zakolebyvalo ... And though at first
promised to put all in 11:30, a term that has moved slowly
to 13:00. And then had to wait another Random'a that ...
Still to come:) And how come ...
Drove a white limousine met the real people. Out-of-
He Random'a not worse, even more than that ... Someone from
'Organizers' had to say: "Every minute,
spent to meet Random'om, postpones party for half an hour. "
After these words the Australian yet released to the gym and
the people lined up in some semblance of a queue ...
Lined up in a huge pile of wild jam at the door:) steamed
another half hour, people began quietly admit. As it turned out,
Ticket No: (((And the fact uplachivaniya sixty rubles
celebrated the installation of a stamp with the inscription
'cc000' to any part of body, preferably on the arm. Dog with
him to the ticket, but where vote-sheets? With this question on
the lips of the people held in the hall ...
'Yes, you all suck
...'
(C) Random
Hall, in principle, was pretty good ... Even walk on it was
terribly uncomfortable because of standing back to back
'benches for seating, "but the place was a lot (I'll tell you -
climbed all). Awkward impression of a bunch of wires,
podveshannyh almost in the center screen. With their visible
and ensure that all communication between the amplifiers,
speakers, projector, projector and the like them. But, write it
on the handle curves could be reconciled with this ...
Slowly room filled with ... I, as one of the most brainy
dude:) [our (I mean, Permian), located close]
sat almost on the last series [We came here to watch the demo
and the demos we have on wild life chankovye:)]. However, had
yet to Half an hour wait is not clear why, but after five hours
of standing is it was actually pleasant. Finally climbed onto
the stage the organizers ...
Introduced Random tore a bunch of applause and entertain people
opening speech of five words:) Immediately we were warned about
need of good conduct (ha, Randy, and where the same rule
Two warnings:))) and the possible spending the night here as
bonus for it. After that, MMA started to show demos to people
C64!
Demos with other 8-bit machines - of course a good thing, but
... people, already slightly ohrenevshy from various delays,
proparok and brakes, their [demo] did not take. Even more, began
loud cries from the audience 'get rid of that mess. " After 10
minutes fortunately it really is over - the people were given
another terrible ad. It turns out that already the police came!
Personally, I jumped in my chest ... In principle, if I were a
friend, responsible for maintaining order in the city (ie
cops), then at this party would have ended with a crowd of
350-400 scumbags to overclock without any reason. Okay, that
people from St. Petersburg by nature more friendly ... The
whole point was limited to one more warning good behavior and a
ban on tusovanie on the porch (of the people in nearby homes
tenses). When this is done continued ...
How do you say 'Continue' ... Announced a ten-minute break
after which promised to begin with music_compo. And indeed -
started! At the first sound of AY-ka people crowded the hall:)
'How cockroaches':))) tell us more about all that happens is not
I can, because also went to the stalls to take a break from the
noise pohavat and general ... After listening to recently
leaked to the party 'No_copy_music', realized that nothing is
lost: (((
Slightly delayed, we Crazy ^ ei returned already in the midst of
gfx_compo. Separation on a copy and no_copy was not, because in
the park the all work a little mixed up. Preselekta Nor was that
led to show the heap in a brazen konverchennyh works (which are
projector looked like painted: ((().
In principle, it looked very much kuzyavo, particularly under
rulnuyu Muzychka (something like Rammstein'a):)))
<-------------------------------------------------
------------->
I can understand artists who are interesting and redraw
savory screens. With straining, but still can not understand
people who envelope with the PC (or Ammi) screens, and then
back-breaking toil give them a decent look. But ... explain to
me what is the point exhibit to the party (and indeed
'produce') screens, obtained by pressing a button in the
converter'*/! (Ah, I do not remember the name)??
<-------------------------------------------------
------------->
Settling back, I waited for the upcoming show intro and
demo. Ha! It turned out I was right on ay_copy_music:)))
Stand up and wade to the exit was lazy, so I had
listen ... Of the eight Mouzon remembered only selection
Zemfira buy Nik-O ^ tl, and then only because it lost twice:)))
All musicians to apologize, but the organizers and Writers
rulezov large FI.
How long can you tread on the same rake?? Another year in the
97m it became clear that the music must have something to do.
The same preselekt does not solve the entire problem, because:
firstly, selects preselekt music, not popular with everyone,
but only members of the jury and, secondly, in hastily passed a
lot of curves Mouzon, and thirdly, to admit to preselektu
participants music_compo at least unethical.
Possible solution could be as much as we give only one
expressed at party very often: 'better to hear the thirty
Mouzon for a minute than a decade, but three. " Decide not to
me, but change something unique need ...
<-------------------------------------------------
------------->
Forgot to say about the vote on the first day ... Tickets and
vote-sheet was not, as far as I Pinyan, they are simply
forgotten, and then failed to bring: (So vote was requested
improvised pieces of paper, with the rewriting of the next day
Real votshity. People is of course wildly enjoyed it. As
result - the first day there were about 400 people, and
questionnaires first day of collected about a hundred. No
comments!!!
<-------------------------------------------------
------------->
Finally ... Comrade MMA voluntarily to shoulder
Acting 'host', announced a break before the upcoming
intro_compo. People crowded smoking in anticipation of the real
entertainment. In the end, most came to demopati and
do not watch screens and listen to music in squalid conditions.
512b intro ... The most wretched of opportunities as a
component always especially no good shows. 6 works, two of which
quite good. Ah, if I was a fan of 'The Matrix' ... Then
I would know what to vote:))) And so had to give first
place some kind of 'Kishkoid':)))
4k intro ... All that matters are more interesting. This is not
mockery for encoder 512bayt (where is the similar 10pixel_gfx,
16notes_music???):) 7 works, one of which did not go: (((
And did not go to work from Perm, 'Sky' by 4d - tested
on the performance in the real Pentagon.
The remaining works in principle, have shown a decent quality.
Code level is clearly risen. Remember: work ^ 1 (tunnel
simply implemented, but fucking-looking), the work of ^ 4
(Serzh stuffed in 4K 'DWISH 16K' intro to Accept - deserves
assess the fact), the work ^ 7 (Sage killed all the clever
plasma:) and work> 6 (vector porno:), for this thing
Suspended:))) Unfortunately (though disingenuously)
intro from Ivan Roshchina, finished 2nd, I can not remember.
Although it is most marked on my plus sign a piece of paper ...
Before the demo again took a break to people prepared to
most bashnesryvatelnomu. By that time already knew everything
that com put up 10! dem, and four really cool pieces.
Therefore, during a mass of smoking people exchanged
assumptions and forecasts. By the end of break, people were
already sitting in Hall as a glove. There was even a real
Kano!!!
Still slightly pomuryzhiv people began demokompo. Next, a short
description of the work with the brash assessment and left
comments:)))
The first was shown Dust by Eye-Q. It was funny to watch
Sair00s'a reaction of ei, when he learned of sounding in the
intro track its Mouzon:))) Dema can in principle be good, but
... made not at the level required in this century. Topics
Moreover, the slowness of anyone not yet decorated. Next!
Dema two. FATE!!! More than anything known since work is
flatly refused: (((I hope, as the thread it, we still
see ...
Tryptomine_Dream of Brainwave ... MMA before the party has
informed all concerned that the brain waves have done
something. But this no one expected. Frame color 'effects',
slaughtering track armor-piercing dynamism. Hall just howled
while watching. AND even though the pass quite good epilogue,
it became clear that demokompo already succeeded. Not for
nothing had come to St. Petersburg ...
End_Of_The_Days to Accept Corp against the background of
experience from previous demos was pretty cool. Although the
great music and graphics, good code, and qualitatively
different (compared to 63-bits) approach to design ... Not a
bad deme shorter one of the best in Accept ...
Next - Scenergy # 2_Promotion from Razzlers. Intra from Senodzhi
a human being:) Relatively good, but it's not a demo. Therefore,
and went smoothly ...
Number 6 - Lust of Ruby and someone else (???). Music from
Midisoft'a (Cool!!!) And only two of the effect (both no). The
reaction was sharply negative. 'Warning! Work stopped on demos
requirement of the hall ... Precedent was Enlight'97 'almost
verbatim word of MMA.
Same MMA has announced that after the show the next seventh
demos will be given a short break before showing the last three
terrible things. 'In the meantime, check it out work from the
Extreme!!!'
Title demos unfortunately can not specify: (to blame himself
Unbeliever - nefig their work and not-along with all
others did not lay out:) I certainly understand hunting finish
to mind, but people wait two weeks to force ... Move along.
So, in Deme of Extreme, we see a certain style, which
'Leader of the Samara hackers' calls' eight-
design ', and I - naive:))) mainly consists of a deme
Multicolor scrollers, very beautiful, but still scrollers.
Available as a pair chankovyh cool effects, but no special role
play. After the appearance of demos (wait for September 4th!)
Is estimated by himself.
After a short break, started showing 'very ruleza'. True,
slightly spoiled the mood of trying to pick it up Random,
who hath made a sale by auction of T-shirts with logs CC000.
Given the fact that after ten minutes we were supposed to drive
out cinema, it was a little out of place. Oh well ...
Deme number 8 does not run: (((I'm sorry ...
9th room. Work from Eternity Industry!!! This says it all!
If anyone doubted who the leader we have zx-demoscene, then
here's the final nail in the coffin - DOGMA!!!
In the early demos people in what is happening does not cut
one. Indeed, after Multicolor creation from Brainwave and
Extreme DOGMA looks rather dull: (No. .. not the power of EI in
the implementation of squalid scrollers in eight colors, and in
the code with a capital letter! Only Sair00s of the existing
encoders can create clean code paintings, worthy of display on
gfx_compo. Only the EI open New Horizons on the spectral
coding. And the music and graphics in their works always
unattainable height ...
By the completion of demos showing the people in the room could
knit naked hands - he almost lay on the floor. Each new effect
(The slope for an unusual cake) and a new screen
(Snorting), Hall met with applause. Naughtiness
some idiot from the organizers with spotlights and flashing
lights finally have an excuse - Frunze recorded reaction Hall
on video. Thunderous noise at the end of demos meant that deme
clearly they won (at least the creation of BW was greeted by
much cooler).
<-------------------------------------------------
------------->
Before the party EIshniki handed out for everyone so to speak
'document' on Deme. That's what it was:
DOGMA
never made before
The flight duration of 3 years came to an end. Until
Solar system were just a few hours journey. The flight was
remarkably successful; on earth he waited for his wife, young
son international fame and, besides, the almost certain
promotion. In general, his career could be envied
each, the future was seen exclusively in pink light, the life
looked beautiful and surprisingly easy. After years of
hungry and needy childhood, all must be the way he
planned.
It happened at the height of forty miles above the Earth. By
unknown reason stopped fuel supply to the right
engine, and then, one after another, began to fail
other vehicle systems. Shaking in air holes and
leaving a wide trail of smoke, the ship on the unthinkable
trajectory fell to the ground. Otletevshy Impact Chip
dashboard ripped pilot stomach and threw him out
through the cracked windshield ...
After some time, half-dead pilot's body was surrounded by
Some people, however, he did not notice it. Life as
it turned out, they laid out in vain for decades to come,
flashed before the eyes of man. He saw the face of his
child, learning about his father's death, recalled episodes
affecting on his life, heard the voices of loved ones.
Visions of the past mixed in with brain inflammation
strange and at the same time, an amazing picture. Then his eyes
it closed, and there was nothing left except the darkness ...
We hope you will be enjoyed watching our demo.
Vote for us.
With best wisches,
ETERNITY INDUSTRY.
<-------------------------------------------------

The last DeMouy we also did not see: (((Working on Real
Masters (!!!) did not go as the Pentagon and at the
provided Kay'e. Vowing to understand and show on
next day, the organizers dispersed all out.
People smoked and talked and discussed what he saw. Heap
Trouble, deficiencies, omissions - a mess in one word - that's
as it was characterization of 'organization' party. Since I
personally went _only_ for Spectrum, a party for me, as it were
over. People basically reacted the same way. Attend sled.den
intended course of almost everything, but ... simply attend.
With regards to the same participants zx-com ... Nebesprichinno
people believed that they have thrown, if not worse. Expressed
the same dissatisfaction was none ...
Would like to express my gratitude to Unbeliever'u, Phantom
Lord'u and MOT'u. It is these dudes kept on his whole
Spectrum-day ... All that was in their power, they did. And all
this despite the fact that none of them are not included in the
official committee. If not for them, everything would have been
much worse (if was ...).
And if you think in my report that everything went just
wonderful, thinks that I'm lamer and Gopnik, and I can not
associate a few words together. Everything was just awful.
People first Day tolerate this outrage simply because of that
very much like that the party failed. Yes, and go home just so
no one excited ...
But here's the first day CC2K, Enlight'97-2, Di: Kal-2 (that's
such were comments:) ended and people began to disperse at
night. Belarusians Petrograders and yet some people have gone to
Lakes on the type of hidden party. Someone went to sleep at the
station, someone in an Internet cafe at night, we're a bunch of
people in thirty went to throw bags and wander around the city.
We - what we (Lfg +4 d):), Unbeliever, EI, Hardwave, part of
the Constellation and a pair of left dude:)))
How we 'spent the night' - is generally a different story:) By
saturation of these eight hours almost comparable to all
previous day. As a result, little sluggishness I, Spy and
Sair00s accidentally left behind on the whole mass of people,
which led forced to hang separately.
Incidentally, due to the absence of Peter Ring Route
subway sleeping in cars is inconvenient because of the constant
transfers:) Because of these inconveniences, and we were on
party_place before everyone - eight in the morning ...
Hope pokemarit a couple of hours in the cinema hall were broken
some sektoidami, who spent the morning in this
room for some service. These Baptists are expelled into the
light God Belarusians, which rapidly after drunken nighttime was
pitiable. True for long:) The legendary 'a couple of drops'
back to life, and most of all begin anew ...
In the morning it became clear that there is no display not
shown on the eve of zx-demos will not be. Moreover, there was
great doubt will there be enough time for the HRC / Ammie
component at all. It's not music two categories, but five (or
six). Throwing brains we Crazy (all the same EI) have decided
to get rolled up, stare Kaki-thread attractions. Most
nonresident morning whiled away exactly ...
We were dragged off to Peterhof ... The spectacle is very
awesome, so we slightly delayed and returned only hours to
three. As it turned out, some we missed. Gfx_compo witnesses
said it was like always slop. Having (at last!!) Vote-sheet, I
have fulfilled their civic duty by voting for the zx-intro and
demo. This list me there and then forced to surrender to the
counting of votes.
My 'luck' led me to a hair's breadth to the top music_compo
(32_chn_alternative). Of the ten Mouzon I broke in the seventh
and left on the street ... Judging by the number of people
inside there, in People basically do not cut one too, such as
feces could pass preselekt (Unless the others were even worse
???).
Surely there are normal muzakery at the HRC / Ammie
(probably:)? Topics more, I do not understand why Mouzon 5 of
7, I heard, exhibited at the alternative? From bad thoughts
diverted stream people, meaning the end of the company.
Immediately released dudes, close to the organizers announced
that more music will not be (Ura!!), While it remains only on
the intro / demo. Again Inspired by the people crowded into the
hall ...
256b and 512b at the HRC were surprisingly good. Even more,
looked at least a much more global spekovskih 512b:)
Some work has been absolutely awesome (I have seen and 4k
worse ...).
4K ... Initially showed sleek Amiga 4K, among other things
Permian (4K by 4d):) And although the steepness of the code is
not shook (our amizhnik Soul Splinter Amiga has only one year,
being analyzed alone), against the background of the subsequent
misery looked surprisingly decent.
Immediately without interruption showed 64K ... Frankly, I'm
slightly ofigel :) Do not watch the home-PC scene, I had not
counted on such class of works. A pair of works is not inferior
to the best Amiga 64K (with Amiga scene I am more familiar than
with the PC). True, According to the worst amizhnikov is
incomparable notions - 50MHz Amiga or Celeron_800, but this is
their disassembly:) Again, the intro was full fly! And the
music in them was not so miserable as to music_compo:)))
Again, a short break, during which I was slightly distracted and
late at the beginning of demo_compo: (Missed my first job -
the only Amiga demo. Judging by the final frames, the work
was not bad:) During the Trouble with WINDOWS (like me
sound card, resulting in the need to fivefold
restart), was able to get to his seat and relax
anticipating the rush, no less than 64K. And my hope
come true:)
Now I can not even tell you how many showed dem - all
merged into one big, bright and color (s, zx, not for you all
is: () effect. Particularly memorable two demos from Accept:
one under sincere pankrok:), another stand out monochrome chunks
4 * 4:))) [on the PC looks !!!]. Plus at the end of out_of_compo
showed DeMouy from T-Rex (think so) - is also very priyatnenko
...
It seems to be collected vote_listy (assuming a complete lamer,
do not having no idea of the scene from voting on the PC
pulled back completely) ... After a half-hour show off Random'a
before the half-empty hall came on stage and announced the
results of the MMA zx-day. Announced the winners (three pieces)
for the 512b and 4K, and as all the demos. DeMouy from Real
Masters show and did not become : (((
Immediately expressed a wish not to take these results
as final, because due to haste in Calculations could
contain errors. Besides the fact of forgery was discovered
billyuteney! About seven pieces were filled with one-hand one in
one. They were disqualified, but the fact was revealed after
Scoring in the demo compo. Shaking investigate and punish
offenders, MMA left the scene, and virtually ended pati ...
On the street people kuchkovalsya and as always Bazaar about
life. I in this report somehow not received special publicity
over boorish behavior Random'a to the party, and the complete
disregard organizers keep their promises, too, is not reflected
in the volume as This has been observed - again, my omission.
In fact people that came out was almost completely killed
seen. The absolute lack of organization! If the
previous day, the analogy between the Di: Kal and CC2K were
apparent only the experienced people, then Aug. 20 - the day of
the apocalypse. Attempts Random'a expose the party successfully
held only robbed him respect of many of those who really holds
the Spectrum and HRC-scene afloat ...
CC000 failed! Conducting necessary for you and me
zx-day - did not merit Concern Chaos'a and other
organizers. Amebskoe their attitude without the aid of
Unbeliever'a, Accept'ovtsev and other volunteers from the
came to the party would lead to a repetition of Enlight'97, when
the crowd to throw people rioted in the park as I could.
Thanks to various Australian companions for providing room
and hardware (such as a projector) - but! it's not all.
Of course difficult to criticize the organizers of a single item
demopati this year (such as 'spit in the well'), but ... Random
and Co completely ignored the experience of last year. All the
same rakes ...
Meanwhile, there are also positive feedback - like 'guys, all
OK '. Such an opinion to the party had comparatively many.
Indeed, the ordinary user, who had come to the party, no
do and, accordingly, do not expose deeply
do not care at all the troubles that have been observed.
If you come here to drink beer with the people, to look at
celebrities, just to have fun - you do it. All that
did not depend on the organizers (ie, parties and booze) - was
just fly away (we will not look at the bourgeois Assembly). But
... if you can still do something, then - is unlikely you will
be do the work in TSTS2K +1 (if it is).
Just another party_place some of the 'elite scenery'
asked to have excessively shumevshego TsyberYatska 'what type
troubled, boy? everything is normal ... ' Again, many of these
most 'ES' on spec scored for so long that a little different
from simple lamer. Ride to the party only to see
old friends certainly cool, but the meaning demopati not only in
This ...
Should I rage like me? Imho everyone. DJ: Cal all the FAQ,
who are not lazy - until blue in the face of gum. Take my word
- that we have seen here are no better. And the scale ... Big
pile shit or a small pile of crap - which is better?
Have repeatedly cite the comparison - whether justified?
Needless to say, Yes! Eternity Industry publicly stated that he
no longer will be doing demos at the party! Understand they can
be, for the second year to do eye-popping demos on squalid
party - ranged anyone. Sair00s general initially said that more
kodit nA zx not will be, but ... Thank God people were able to
somehow persuade (and then, not a fact: (). A large number of
people stated that next year to Peter will not go for anything
... And many such things.
On the background of this attitude at first very surprised by
the ratio MMA, the most affected by the mess as it stimulated
rake. Despite all what happened, he advised me not to
chase Biden:) (probably futile), because Alternatively, a
special people do not. If next year again thinks of Randy
pretend to be tough and will hold sceners CC2K +1, then
personally he would come and let others at the same advise.
Although difficult had to admit it, but this had to agree ...
In fact ... And where else do we lodge? CAFe_2001?
Support from the government - certainly the molecules, but
somehow these people are not lured. And the support is not all
zx-compo (where is the gfx and music???) also is not good. But
in any case this is not Kazan Peter and not Moscow. The
question itself kazanchanam - if your city 400-500 thugs come
for two days, endure if this is your city (Nerves, police
kiosks)??
Ideally would suit has already proven way - Funtop. But ... who
the same shall be taken at this time for the organization? Or
try again persuading Wlodek'a?? In principle, the person can
learn from age - so this is hardly a prospect to seduce him
: (((While Moscow for most is more acceptable
option. Wait and see??
Already existing Paradox and Belarusian no specific Millennium
chances are not due to finding the middle of nowhere (again)
and even inconvenient timing. For Belarusians generally scared
to go, 'So I do not drink':)))
Returning to the affairs of the current, ie / IC for three-hole
again, that party has failed. But in general these two days
have been held not in vain, and money spent on it all did not
mind. But ... it does should not be proud of the organizers
(again repeat, but I'm with you I can do about it?). If the
collected works just posted in, and no, a party would simply be
abolished (as the 2nd day E'97), it does not affect the overall
impression.
People hanging out by itself - the organizers were busy on their
themselves. Heart demopati - demokompo - had a very bad way,
low percentage of voters confirms it. About music and
graphics generally do not talk - the happiness that I am not a
musician:)))
Such talks were held for about an hour around the theater ...
[Although This is all is my particular opinion:)] Then
people began to quietly take leave and disperse in all
directions.
Drinking people again rushed towards Ozerkov (+ Belarusians:)
Petrograders and guests of the Northern capital of huts,
separately met a bunch of people going away from St. Petersburg
at night and the next morning. In this very group consisted of
all the Permian, and I:). Muscovites EIshniki again MMA, the
people of Krasnodar, Hardwave and a few others.
Say goodbye to everyone with whom it was possible (somewhere in
this Obscure time I interviewed a couple of words CPUshnikam:)
we went to the bus stop. On the way conversations are not
abated, and even the bus passengers and the conductor had to
listen to our Bazaar on concepts. Since MMA all the way to
explain the difference between Pure and simple eight-demami
demami. Very funny:) although it may be true:)))
Particularly about the spread of the subsequent will not, so
as compared with the last party does not play a special role and
anyone interested in principle. One has only to note our night
in the game club 'Cro-Magnon' that we shot for 960_rub
(Thanks to the same MMA sacrificed the bulk of the money).
Because of this everyone could see us on the irc-channel
# Z80 ... wish there was very little:). So we spent the night,
interrupted only by provodiny Muscovites and EIshnikov in two
nights. In the morning we piled out of the club, infecting
admins' stsenovymi concepts' (one of them even became
interested in cakes!)
The last few hours we spent in St. Petersburg in communion with
the MMA and Accept'ami. Booting (finally) on the train, we are
almost immediately fell into a prolonged sleep (still, three
days had already slept about six hours:). In general the whole
trip duration in thirty hours consisted of a monotonous food
(Chinese noodles sax!) and sleep. Entertainment served only
rare visits Serzh'a, riding a train. Arrival in Perm was also
the culmination of buzz, experienced during those six days trip
...
Let forever be
...
All vysheprochitannoe had me written in the period from 25 to 28
August. Today, on the last day of summer, I sit at dopisanie
small 'look back'. and though what I wrote, there is
absolute truth (in my understanding:) I want a little accent
your attention to some of the nuances ...
So I wrote here - party failed ... In this case, I personally
almost udovledovletvoren past (the key word 'almost':) and so on
At least I do not think that a lot of money spent in vain.
Mozhbyt not worth while to make such negative conclusions?
Weighing all that is possible, talking to people, listening to
a half hours of interviews (Dismal'a suffering, for which he
thanks:) - stick to the same opinion. How can you take a success
party, which, despite showing great potential Spectrum
as components of machines, led to that pile of people lost
desire to go to next year's party. The names of the 'seed which
fell spirit' will not lead, I'm afraid not enough space:))) But
believe me, these people quite a lot - for example, from Perm,
instead of eight Only two people will go ...
Again, on the other hand, everyone understands that to hope for
more the best organization was stupid (even more stupid to hope
that Next year will be better). It's not even about money -
although they play an important role. Just the organizers
should have more personal interest in the quality of
pati ... And then until the maximum they need is to
Preservation of the situation provided party_place.
And that - not really ...
But then again ... On a normal president hoped too stupid
and even the thought of quality too, no. But elections are
regularly and people are also regularly at least formally
entitled select ... And the curse borisnikolaichey and any IE
no one ever not prohibited (as well, we forbid) ...
It is also a sore point - the place overnight foreign
participants and viewers. Of course, you can throw the question
entirely to them - as was done this year. But ... to judge
their own skin if you think seriously get to sleep in a human,
you are succeeds, no problem.
Just as soon as possible Fuck intercourse after party (and
between Incidentally, all drove another seven hours). For there
to _normalnyy_ overnight group of 20-30 people is unrealistic
imho ... That's why I slept only about six hours:)))
And making a 180 degree turn ... Splashing out on all the
reading newspaper people 'the truth about the CC', I'll be very
disappointed if it is my words will be the crucial stumbling,
got in and Random'a forced him to decide to terminate this
amusing tradition (every summer we go to Peter ...:).
Conversely, if a bit to drink, I even start to think that
This 'report' is more like advertising next / IC:)))
Buy our slonofff ... ugh, come on, Peter! Will
fun! :) Chaos Construction - the most constructive chaos!
