Just as the 4k winner i think it's boring but it's just so nice to look at and smooth as fuck hence the thumb.

fantastic and beautiful! It felt very close, I would have preferred a much "bigger" feel to it, meaning that some particles should be smaller and/or a bigger fov and so forth....Still great!

How did you do the flow patterns on the particles?

OMG that tune. Plus, finally a demo again. With, like, effects that you can look at, and they're not gone again in 0.2s, and the screen design and postproc layers don't distract but add to the whole. I'll be coming back to this a lot :)

@quisten
the particle simulation uses forces to animate particles, they basically have 3 parameters to influence particles: radius, attraction, rotation.
in the last particle part those forces and parameters are totally random.
the part beforte that spawns particles and forces along (random) splines, which results in that "throwing" motion.

btw, many parts are randomly generated and look different every time. most visible in the last two particle parts.

@kb
thanks! the idea was to make a classic (oldschool?) demo, fragmented into self contained parts, which are focused on one object/effect.

@ferris
thanks, also a lot brazillian excellence in here ;)

@maali
thanks, i guess you are right, i watch sqny demos a lot and especially love the generative/simulative stuff

@all
thank you guys for your awesome, motivating comments, this means a lot to us!

I like that dark and moody "berlin style" of demos.
rulez added on the 2017-10-05 11:35:48 by nodepond nodepond
Really nice. I have to second kb's comment. It more or less feels like a modern reinvention of demos from ~ '96/'97.

Thumb goes clearly for the music and some of the visuals, but I couldn't watch it all the way through, the stupid flashing exhausted the piss out of me.

It feels like the vivid particles and flickering lines/boxes overlay fight for your attention, especially noticed it in the first (torus-shaped?) particles scene.
But this is complaining that the cherry ontop is not your favorite tint of purple, I adore the interesting effects, motion design and it's sync with the soundtrack! Great work :)

Amazing _genuine_ techno demo with true underground atmosphere.
I really like how it evolves and brings new moods both in visuals and music - change at 2:35 is absolutely perfect - great ballancing between clarity and glitching of mostly dark tones.

well the browser still isnt my first choice as a demo platform (too many resources blown away by the sheer amount of software layers beneath), but I see its advantages too (crossplatform, a lot of documentation and examples, common in the newschool (web)designers world, etc.).

Having that said:
Boy what a show! Very coherent and stylish, Holon barely disappoints!
Extra thumb for the cool techno soundtrack by ronny!

BTW, the official YT capture is OOS, which ruins it a bit
