Hello!
You have read the official statement of the Chairman of the
Organizing Committee of the Festival "ENLIGHT'97". Immediately
I beg you not to worry - results of competitions are published
in this issue, you'll find them in the end, there, and our
detailed comments.
And now let us go quietly, as they say, according to plan!
True, because of computer crashes at the IRONMAN-but he was
unable to prepare all their materials for publication, and now
published only part on your computer "Sprinter".
And start with the other, with the promised interview ...
ANTARES: INTERVIEW Loser
Andrew Juice (KONEX) (left) and Alexander Filyanov (FIL).
WB: Let's start with the fact that not only missed the train,
but ...
KONEX: No, we do not train too late, we're late with demoy on
ENLIGHT due to objective reasons. July 9, 1997 I started
encode DeMouy and made the first part, which DeMouy not come.
It all started with a complete zero, one and a half months we
have had in stock. In short, the situation was this: I encode
DeMouy, FIL draws schedule. Drive FIL'a records so that my TEAC
these discs do not read. Thank WLODEK BLACK'u for what he
allowed FIL'u rewrite the host files so that I have read discs
otherwise we would never do this DeMouy not released.
WB: Well, I will take away a little note that this service
so small that they work on FIL'a proezzhaniyu four stops on the
bus before me were far more than rewriting files.
KONEX: For us, this service was very important because Modem in
FIL'a does not work now with the board due to departure ports
in the board Scorpio, in short - a pipe. As a result, we had a
situation such that I coded independently, FIL draws
independently and together we all unite we can not.
FIL: I had to come to KONEX'u and mold together.
KONEX: It was a madhouse, of course, the full!
FIL: For one day we did almost no time, only to see
what has been done and discussed.
KONEX: FIL weeks ago I was with LEMMING'om board Scorpio
for a new workers' wages. In FIL'a starts modem, we have
there is a great chance for the ENLIGHT. For one day we
sleplivaem very much, because I'm calling FIL'u as soon as I
something done, he calls me as soon as it has something to do.
The modem provides a great convenience in comparison with what
FIL went to see you, you have copied the files and then came to
me and We sculpted DeMouy me, and things have gone. This
happened exactly a week ago, unfortunately.
FIL: On the casts, we had only this week.
KONEX: On Tuesday night I burned the monitor, I come from
dinner, the LED is not lit. What is it? Monitor bye-bye. Turned
cause the power supply, blown transistor, I've figured out what,
as He was steaming. Monitor burned - I was shocked. Thank you
WLODEK BLACK'u - he offered his own monitor, but I refused
because I could connect SPECCY to color TV, which I did,
because every minute was on the account and go to the other end
Moscow was simply no time. I connected the computer to
TV via a SCART connector and RGB-input. There were new
problem: I have a phone line in my room, had
soldering ten-cord to connect the modem. Now
computer has become steadily dropped every 5-7 minutes
ie this pipe - it is impossible to encode, ie, I modemlyus,
I turn on the modem when not modemlyus - I did turn off, ie,
permanent on / off the computer.
FIL: Now my troubles: not only did I have a screen on
monitor continuously scaled ...
KONEX: geometric dimensions are distorted
FIL: ... from what I have, perhaps, kodensator on the monitor
some dried up, so I have the day after the departure
KONEX'ovskogo break through a block of high voltage, short it
starts something wildly to close, visible spark, plastic melts,
the monitor emits smoke, the image jumps, debug DeMouy
completely impossible, you can only turn at 2 nimuty, smodemit
files all, nothing more can be done.
KONEX: There is very little chance to make DeMouy and
just 3 days: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. On Friday evening
we leave on ENLIGHT. On Tuesday I had a shock, stroke, because
Monitor burned, immediately thought of all that we do not have
time. In Wednesday night in this state I could not do anything.
On Wednesday morning we continue to do DeMouy, night from
Wednesday to Thursday, from Thursday to Friday we slept for 2
hours, I encode 22 hours a day, you find it difficult something
like that, I do not code, and collect DeMouy. Encode nice going
- it's awful! As a result, we do not have time just a few
hours. We train at 20.35, and an hour of the day FIL'om we
speak, and we still have a chance, but then dies communication.
Communication is lost, FIL says: "You have the tube removed the
modem, I say: "I generally sit in the STS. Do not hear
anything. I dialed number, generally do not have any
connection, and all I got all clear: the connection No, and now
no phone or modem is not working. Everything. This was the last
straw that overflowed the cup of my patience, and I knew from
that moment, at the hour of the day that we do not ENLIGHT
DeMouy, because all telephone cover. At two o'clock FIL just
rang.
WB: What can you tell about the most Deme?
KONEX: the steepest part of our demos is flooded tunnel
totally destructive thing. The tunnel is designed entirely in
SPECCY. Moreover, we could do even cooler, but we expected
DeMouy in one load. The first version of the tunnel we did not
like, and had very quickly, in real-time redo it. Together
Reinvent it, I'm gonna pack my, hang him music, and in two
o'clock tunnel works! All the music, full of flies! We
brought the first half of the demos with the tunnel and I are
all to show everyone. I can also say that the emphasis we
done on a combination of code, graphics and music in a whole, ie
our music is not just hanging out on the Interrupt, and each
effect precisely coordinated with the music, ie, We listened to
Mouzon, who By the way, wrote IMP from RUSH, for which he thank
you very much, and looked at a pattern of asking what effect.
Very sorry, of course, that we do not have time. I was just
in a trance when the relationship ended Friday, up to this
point we had hoped in time, because hope dies last, and if
there is no hope, then then it makes no sense to do. Well now I
am in general has moved away from This looked at the demos
ENLIGHT'e and believe that our deme not disgrace to ENLIGHT,
frankly, and would include the five best dem.
FIL: The five, yes, but above-is unlikely.
KONEX: No, I think one of the three she entered.
WB: What is now her fate?
KONEX: Somewhere in the Thursday-Friday we come home
Moscow. I need to figure out - I have a ton of paper
accumulated on the This Deme - prints and hand-written and
literally trichetyre days we will finish it, most importantly,
to understand and all vsomnit.
WB: And then she comes to the assistance conditional ZXNet.
KONEX: Yes, I will lay it on BBS'kam, and we will send it to
all our friends.
FIL: It is desirable that it podlepili to ENLIGHT'ovskim demam,
but surely this is impossible because we were late.
KONEX: Yes, and acquaintances in our city on the Neva no.
WB: Unfortunately, I have acquaintances at ENLIGHT either. More
just a few words, just to remind you how it happened
precisely this situation that's a loser, like a fallen?
KONEX: It was a lot of factors that influenced
the creation of our demos otritsateno, many of them I do not
remember but a few days before ENLIGHT'a, for example, a
situation ended when the disks and had to go and buy a net
drives, but it was not time, and had to seek out
space on the old drive. We FIL'om at the end is simply
laughed: for example, on the phone talking, we razedenyayut, ie
like and MGTS against us, against that we had to do
demu.Nu all factors against us!
WB: And yet, what is the main reason?
KONEX: Main - burn my monitor and the pursuit of two
hares. July 9, I started doing ECSTATIC DUB (Eironams), and
IMAGINE (megademu) continued to do, rather, on the contrary, ie
I did IMAGINE, and in between IMAGINE I started doing
ECSTATIC DUB. It was necessary for a long time to hammer on
this IMAGINE, should it was a week before to start doing
ECSTATIC DUB.
Well, in general, deme are not bad, I hope, by design it
superior, in my opinion, all previously known demos,
combination of coding, graphics and music, even better than the
LYRA 2 SHOCK and VIBRATIONS, where this index is very high.
I hope everyone will appreciate ECSTATIC DUB appreciated.
WB: I'll try to make every effort to give your
work a maximum of fame, and that it was not disappearing
work.

ANTARES told about his adventures with humor and good nature.
And that's fine!
I have nothing to add to this!
