Out of the loop

category: general [glöplog]
 
The demoscene is full of inside jokes and such. Some jokes might go back 20 or more years. In this thread you are allowed to ask stupid questions about the demoscene, if you are "out of the loop".

I'll start: why is jumalauta's Färjanmaker named as it is? Why is it färjan (=ferry)?

And these are all "remakes" of this old prod http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=24131

which is based on a shitty song some JML members recorded with a Nokia Ngage that was randomly playing on the ferry radio during a trip they took

And Färjanmaker brings it all together: now everybody can easily create Färjan productions without the trouble of actually having to code _or_ create assets!

Professional tools like Unreal Engine, Unity and Färjanmaker are killing the demoscene.

Original Finlandsfärjan was done at the cabin of Viking Line ferry using only material available in the cabin.

One could say it's a cross between documentary of everyday life of a finn in 2006 and an excellent intro.

Considering Rob made a texture generator tool you could use that to make a demo with Färjanmaker and actively kill the demoscene!!!!

Is the reason why "Rob is Jarig" is so prolific in comparison with "Träskodansen" because of the lack of umlauts in the name of the former? Outside of Sweden I mean.
