  1. Pieces from the #Evoke2025 demo party, very nice.
    Comments in the video are in German, but it's also more about the demos.
    Especially fascinating: the #Amiga demos done without the cpu, starting at minute 56:

  2. An der Demoszene interessiert aber während der #evoke2025 keine Zeit gehabt?

    Morgen Abend um 20:00 Uhr gibt bei uns in der Heliosstraße eine ausführliche Zusammenfassung über die besten und verrücktesten Beiträge von der diesjährigen Evoke.

    Wir freuen uns zusammen mit Tobi von @digitalekultur und euch auf einen gemütlichen Abend voller Demos, Hintergründe und tollen Geschichten!

  3. What an interesting #Amiga challenge: No-CPU! After loading everything into Chip-RAM, the demo runs completely on the custom chips, with no CPU involved.

    Rules can be found at no-cpu.dev .

    You think it's impossible? Well, look here: youtu.be/OXT5MrDdyB8 - Even Conway's "game of life" at the end does not use the CPU.

  4. During the last @berlincreators retro meeting we managed to blow up the 8580 SID in my C64G that I use for oldschool democompos when I'm an organizer, and I totally forgot about it. 😅 Fortunately for #evoke2025 I could extract the SID from my Plus/4 SID Card (originally courtesy of @iszell ).

    During the week I bought new SIDs online - I will need more for other machines -, so the one that belongs to the SID card went back to it, and the C64G now has a new one.

  5. #Evoke2025 was a blast! Always good to be back at #Evoke and meet old and new friends! #demoscene

  6. Finally a good use for the STM32F7 discovery board with touch screen: Mandelbrot Schubsy by Arti #evoke2025 #demoscene

  7. Last weekend, this year's edition of the "Evoke" demo party took place in Cologne. Numerous Amiga productions were presented there:

  8. I was part of this project, and what a fun one it was! It's the first Amiga demo I've contributed to in probably 25 years. And I cannot believe we won Alternative Platform at #evoke2025

    Half a year ago, Blueberry started talking about doing a NoCPU demo to introduce a new compo category and somehow managed to talk me into joining the project. Actually, it wasn't that difficult. The NoCPU idea is obviously to make demos without using the CPU, only the Amiga's custom chipset. Way back when, I wrote this Protracker player for WinAMP called Oldsk00l, so I knew my way around the MOD format, and we would be needing a MOD player. It was really quite serendipitous -over the years I've thought a lot about how the custom chipset is Turing complete, and also wondering why exactly didn't we just compile a MOD to code, instead of interpreting it at runtime. It's basically just a list of instructions, right? Just compile it. So I got to implement this idea, which was hugely satisfying. Simply compiling a MOD to a huge copper list. It has to be the world's fastest MOD player, at least in terms of CPU usage. I mean, it seems unlikely that another player in the future might hand back the CPU more cycles than it spends playing the MOD. But never say never, I guess.

    Other things I did were the interference effect, which I always wanted to try in this many bitplanes, the blitter tornado/chaos zoomer, which I hadn't implemented before, and the kaleidoscope effects.

    Truthfully, Blueberry did all of the heavy lifting with his extensive framework for building copper and blitter instructions, handling memory allocation and reuse, and so forth. It almost made selfmodifying copperblits three levels deep trivial. His checkerboard and (perhaps surprisingly) the many, many transitions are really clever stuff. He made everything come together, and it is very much his demo.

  9. No CPU Challenge by Demostue Allst★rs

    Evoke 2025 party Alternative Platforms compo winner.

    An Amiga AGA demo that entirely runs on the copper. This is the same capture from real hardware, that was presented in the compo.

  10. My Bub plush went missing after the first day of sitting next to the miniature arcade cabinet at #evoke2025, if anyone manages to find it, please return it to the infodesk! These plush toys are not easy to replace and I'll be very upset if someone has stolen it.

  11. I love how amiga #demoscene has embraced the #nocpu concept and ran away with it: github.com/askeksa/NoCpuChalle

    The invitation to this challenge "No-CPU Challenge by Demostue Allstars" released at #Evoke2025 party is quite damn cool. It's probably the most impressive nocpu demo I've seen so far:
    - Demozoo: demozoo.org/productions/376675/
    - Pouet: pouet.net/prod.php?which=104753

  12. delays? at a demoparty even??

    ...everything's in order

  13. Featured at @evoke today, my entry to the PC One Screen ANSI / ASCII compo: "Out of Water", an #ANSIArt piece drawn in one hour!

    "With my home in ruins from forces outside my control, I left for land to find someplace safe in this cruel world..."

  14. Delighted that we have the #ByteWall running at @evoke again, after debuting there last year.
    The installation allows anyone at the venue with some #TIC80 coding knowledge to make an effect and (optionally) contribute it to the party's showcase. So if that's you, then please go play 😄

    The configuration has matured - the client looks more focused and the showcase includes an overlay to credit the effect.
    Thanks to @Violet for help developing, and deploying!

    packing for evoke
    #evoke25 #evoke2025 and not procrastinating here ^^
  17. My small Blahaj attached to the Gulf of Blahaj sign at #why2025 went missing. if you somehow find it please let me know. In the meantime anyone going #evoke and passing by an IKEA could you get me a small one and I will pay you back? <3
