You're right that many demos simply exist to showcase technical brilliance, but many in the demoscene are starting to trend further towards expressing artistic ability. Some examples off the top of my head:
- Number One/Another One by CNCD/FLT: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=77399 http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=77399
- When Silence Dims the Stars Above by Conspiracy: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=75713 http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=75713
- Aurora by Excess: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=75791 http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=75791
- Along for the Ride by Ümlaüt Design: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=78053 http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=78053
- dharma1 8y agoSmash smashing it again with the first one... BTW - your realtime synth engine (https://github.com/monadgroup/axiom https://github.com/monadgroup/axiom) looks great. Any ETA for a Mac build of the VST?
- cpdt 8y agoI have a super-beta build working, if you'd like to try it out/help bugfix shoot me an email at "copodt at the google email" and I'll send it to you :)
- maeln 8y agoAlso any ASD demo. They tend to stray away from the general "demo-esthetic" even when it come to the music. "Lifeforce" was fantastic and really stand out from any other demo, event to this day. "For your love" use the same kind of particles extravaganza that Fairlight popularized, but really has it's own esthetic.
