HOPE XV (2024): "Demoscene 2024: Just When You Thought There Wasn't Any More! (2 of 2)" (Download)
Saturday, July 13, 2024: 11:00 pm (Marillac Auditorium): The demoscene once consisted of hackers, crackers, and pirates. Back then, software pirates would compete for the most cracked games, but they would also hire artists to decorate their new distributions. Eventually, they ditched the piracy bit and continued creating amazing works of art, motion graphics, music, and of course, code. Squeezing every bit of computing power out of a platform, they now regularly compete at events around the world. There's more to this story - join Inverse Phase for this talk about not only how we got here, but what's being done in 2024 to push the envelope today in algorithmic computer art.
