• 64k Windows toptiny redexit by Calodox
• didn't like the opening redness+triangles = boring. But got a lot better. Sort of expected more from the sound, but sort of grew on me (not sure if i like it or not). Seen better, but thumbsup for abstraction in 64k

• demo Windows p351 by kosmoplovci [web] & Minimalartifact [web]
• Not since fit&bandwagon, or the golden days of farbrausch/haujobb collaborations (circa. fr-034), have I felt as excited to see such an apt venture of artistic groups. But at the same time, I know what the likes of big names can do to influence one's opinion of demo regardless of the product; so i was keen to watch this with critical eye.
  
  On first impressions, my first instinct was a feeling that - despite the personnel - p351 conveyed much more of a minimalartifect style - reminding me much more of
  
  http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=12087
  http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=11035
  
  than that of traditional kosmoplovci.
  
  Said in aesthetic light: this feels much more like a product of abstraction art than that of minimalism (no pun intended).
  
  But of course, that is all artistic kudos, because what we have here is certainly something interesting and enjoyable.
  
  A progressive soundtrack sets us up for a voyage which - by the opening minute or so - we can tell is not going to be a paint-dry sort of demo. Rather, we are venturing into somewhat of an overtone montage in slow-motion; an audioscape of textures and bizarre harmonics changes to keep things moving.
  
  As the demo continues into minutes; i felt less of the previous MA design-influence. A world of divisions, of that 'urban scaffolding' line style vision. I must admit I felt myself longing for a change in visual composition: and when finially we were introduced with blackness, there was a moment in there of real excellence.
  
  Screen divisions at this point also made for pleasantries.. but still i couldn't help feeling that there was something wrong with the climax to this point.. maybe it could have been more gradual; or perhaps more exploited.
  
  But nonetheless the demo keeps rolling on, more harmonics greet some changing textures - including a rather lovely 4/3 solid rectangle which works quite well.
  
  It ends somewhat abruply but still within the same scope of the whole demo..
  
  In short i think it probably isn't either gorup's coup de cour (imho, I guess at perhaps a little more work on concept/cross group collaboration?) - but nonetheless - the product is big, it sounds and looks good - a thumbup and certainly worth keeping.

  but the rest of it.. wow. so so fresh. Great visuals, love the music.
