  A cute, short demo, with mostly chessboard and cube effects. As with most Amiga demos of the time, starts out with a nice title pic. The "480 faces glenz" effect ain't exactly realtime, of course ;). Everything is moved along at a good pace and the transitions are done well.

  Somewhere in between Coma by Rebels and Facts of Life (House part) by Witan. I keep it around for the music; the visuals are mostly 1-color overlays or quick monochrome video snips. Still, it's really not that bad, especially compared to PC stuff of the time. And yes, that's "Adict" with one D.

  Quite a large and ambitious 3D scene for the time, although it almost looks silly by today's standards. Good music, of course, and some nice logos. I never quite got the blatant advertising for Pepsi - were they trying to score some free soda? :) (or was it meant to rebel against the runaway popularity of Coca-Cola at European demo parties? heh)

• demo MS-Dos Gooroo Nation by Starry Knights Productions
• Personally, I would've filed it under "Starry Knights Productions" or even "SKP (Canada)" to avoid confusion, but, whatever. This was their only demo anyway. And yes, it features the code of GooRoo, before he joined my old group Kosmic and went on to make other demos like Flight, Little Green Men, and Dreams. The music isn't bad, but the effects are dull and outdated even for 1994, except for a couple creative combinations (note-bar/landscape, fire-mapped cube). And other than some rendered logos, no gfx to speak of. He hadn't quite mastered the technique of clock-timing yet, as some parts fly by in a couple seconds on fast PCs. I can't thumb it down out of respect for a fellow group-mate, and besides, his first demo in 1993 was a lot worse than this. :)

• drawn out, not dawn out

• demo MS-Dos The Accident by Axidental
• One of two Canadian demos at Assembly '94! Some of these guys later became Craw Productions. The demo was likely inspired by Second Reality, as it's a bit dawn out with the credits and such, but there are many unique effects here (including the first "voxel-tunnel"), accompanied by some nice graphics. The music is a bit sloppy, but still cool and effective.

• demo MS-Dos Dawn by The Emulator Institute
• One of two Canadian demos at Assembly '94! Some of these guys later became DCB. This demo has a decent assortment of effects (copper forest, TV cube, color-lit cube over zoom-rotate, etc) and music - one is typical demopop, but another is more unique acoustic/organ style! The scrolling-game credits part at the end is definite oldskool fun.

• demo Windows hwr2 by kosmoplovci [web]
• Allright, I was a bit harsh last time, but, I tell it like it is. To be fair, I watched it again with music at full volume (rather than near silent late at night like last time). The audio definitely adds atmosphere to it. Still, I don't see it so much as a demo, as a "living" screensaver. Like melw said, it didn't reach its full potential. Years from now, these guys will be viewer as either artistic geniuses, or stoned. :)

• demo Windows hwr2 by kosmoplovci [web]
• Like Chimera, _, etc etc, meant to be projected, not directly watched. And like most other Eurotrash art, cold and emotionless, but it will hold the attention of the drug-hungry, and those who feel they won't be cool and hip if they're not into it. Like it or not, this is a trend. But hey, by the end of the year many more groups will think they're artistic geniuses, and this genre will be overdone, so maybe the scene will get sick of it and move on.
