• cdc #1: Liquid... Wen? by Haujobb
• cdc #2: The golden path by United Force [web] & Digital Dynamite [web]

• demo Windows opium by Move
• good flow, good music, ok scenes. i don't really understand the purpose of a software engine that just mimics hardware rendering. a raytracer is different because it can do some things that are impossible in hardware (spheres, refractions, ...). it's probably just that "look-i-can-write-a-rendering-engine-too".

• intro Windows meaning of life 2 by Crux & Delirium [web]
• the musician didn't show even basic knowledge about harmonies, the poetry is usual demo scene quality (read: poor)... only the rather nice gfx save this intro

• 64k Windows Salmiakki by The Planet Of Leather Moomins [web]
• hmhmhmhm... i can see that this intro is really polished, both visually and acoustically. and yet, it doesn't touch me at all. too cold, too precise. whatever.

• demo Windows mg_r by The Planet Of Leather Moomins [web]
• the sync? what sync? nah... apart from the quite ok soundtrack, this demo's just pure rubbish. displaying random b/w graphics with distorted palettes is NOT art.

• 64k Windows 003 by Foobug [web] & Scoopex [web]

• 64k Windows Exodus by Foobug [web]
• i liked that. it's pretty lowres (especially the voxels - 160x200 or what?), but the engine is really nice (bilinear interpolation, not many software renderers do that). it's also cool that everything's just one scene (no cuts). the flying dot gives the intro some kind of coherence.

• 64k Windows Paradise is Coming by Rgba [web]
• -crappy drum sounds
  -kitsch lyrics (applies to 99% of all demos with lyrics unfortunately)
  -rough edges in close-up view
  
  +morphing clouds look positively fantastic
  +great textures
  +beautiful sun flare
  +nice harmonies in music
  
  give us that megademo you promised! :)

• demo Linux Windows Chimera by Halcyon
• very very cool in the beginning - wall of sound builds up first, screen still black, then slowly red silhouettes fade in.
  
  what disappointed me was the end - just a fade out, and that's it? i would have liked a clear cut there. or, even better: a 2nd part. because the demo rather feels like a prelude for something big than like a complete prod.
  
  still, a thumb skywards for the mighty and unique atmosphere.
