DemoScene
Your're here because I somehow convinced you to read more about the Demoscene.
I keep talking about the Demoscene, what is it?
I learned programming from ScratchMitEdu, look at
3D Graphics and Scratch for
an example of what young prodigies create using Scratch. Around the same
time I started programming, I also discovered the
Demoscene.
Before I got into programming, I was learning to produce electronic music. Demos involve all of the three art forms: code, music, graphics
Each stimulate the senses computers currently have the capability to: code for the brain, music for the ears, graphics for the eyes.
Creating a demo requires excellence in all three crafts.
Demos need limitations, demos beat limitations. Old computers are a fitting choice. They are also simpler in design, simplicity and the constraints thereof are beautiful.
Demoscene is an art form, AI has no place here. I'm not sure where to draw the line for using AI to do the boring parts.
