There is something beautiful about efficiency. Small computers (check out /r/sffpc), efficient codecs, those competitions where people make games/music/graphics in just a few KBs (forget what those are called - “demoscene”?). The fact that compressed Wikipedia without images fits on an 8GB USB. It all fascinates me. It is amazing to see us push the boundaries of communication under such restrictions

There's a demoscene magazine intermittently published in 'demo' form: http://www.hugi.scene.org/ http://www.hugi.scene.org/

  Would be cool to make a demo that would fit on a magazine page in something like a QR code (scannable with a normal phone).
