Great one file demo! Neat how the gfx are put on the screen, blending and moving etc.. The war topic is maybe a little to heavy in these times of war but than again spot on! A demo with a strong point of view!

Very original demo. Visually it could look like a history documentary.

"The war topic is maybe a little to heavy in these times of war" - When was there ever a time without a war in some part of the world? This is a good time as any to release a demo like this. And i think it's not only about war, considering the final bits. =)

Once you fully master the technology, you can start creating art.

This demo is not your typical demo, needs to be watched several times to understand it well. Anyway, it's very interesting. Good job bifat!

More than art

Great, original style!
This is the kind of demo I can watch many times. So many visuals to discover and the music is great too.
TEK is the Amiga group for others to look up to these days.

I completely missed this one, some interesting stuff subtly happening amongst all the bitplane layers.

Incredible atmosphere and technical prowess. Brilliant soundtrack and a mesmerising Chihuahua!

A bit dark themed, but quirky and modern. Refreshing!

Nice tune. Visuallly OK.

Offbeat and captivating demo. Have to confess I had to look up what
'Kadesh' is. Where has the idea and inspiration for this demo come
from? Interest in ancient history and / or the current war in Eastern
Europe since the demo seems to try to establish a link to the presence?
Maybe just too much interpretation from my side?! Some of the images
are too enigmatic for me, i.e., what do they show and what is the
intention?
All in all, a very atmospheric demo and the music suits it very well.

I need to draw inspiration from whereever I can, for it's so elusive. "Making sense" is just a tool (among others) that may or may not work on some level. If you found it atmospheric and you didn't want your lifetime back then it has done its job for you. :)

i find this to be pretty much awe-inspiring, artistically. hats off. <3

Okidoki. Thanks for the info. Just was curious if there was a story that I
missed. Guess I am going to "waste" some more of my lifetime on it in
the future :-)

Congrats, each release is the best time of the year :-)

Great tune with really cool visuals and transitions. Definitely not your standard demo aesthetic, which I really enjoyed.

And now for something completely different
Different than previous TEK, which is great.

I liked seeing probes to experiment with transparency as new main theme/ technical concept (instead of those glossy, faked 3d reflections in the past demos). I'm sure this concept of using transparency as well designed element will be mastered soon by this team just like with previous tricks that were already seen.

Too boring ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nice one!

Music and presentation suggest a bit of 90s techno-demos (which i dont like) but it's not really the case here and there are interesting themes and effects to enjoy enough for a thumb.

ok

A perhaps topical, obscure experiment. How much does that make it art, and how much demo is left? At the same time, all art is digitized pictures, and it rarely looks good and doesn't always sound good.

The 3D and tunnel would probably look good without rough scans obscuring it, zoomer probably wouldn't. With TEK (I should perhaps say Bifat) it's a journey in reduction as a means to make some things possible, and there's a sense of freedom in experimentation and not caring if it looks good which I envy.

And also a journey toward independence. Statement made, this is a 100% indie demoscener demo. This demo is an entity that doesn't care if you like it. I will comply.

I'm not good in writing fancy comments like Photon above (hello!) but I enjoyed this demo a lot, what a *dark* ride through all these pictures. Rulez!

War... War never changes.

It was enjoyable to watch, some nice 1 color 3d maps there!

Interesting concept demo! I didn't get the dog and am not a big fan of the music, but it fits well.

Great how things emerge in a slow pace, and only after some time there's a sudden moment when the demo explains itself. Worked very well on the party.
