• Just wonderful! The whole setup, the colors, the lighting, the progression, the tight connection with the music.
  
  As others have pointed out, it's quite painful to watch in 30 fps, so I made a 120 fps capture. All hail kkapture. :)

• demopack diskmag Amiga OCS/ECS Speed issue #71 - Into The Rotozone by Nah-Kolor [web]
• It was fun to reflect on the whole rotozoomer saga in this format, and to read the perspectives of everybody involved.

• demo Amiga OCS/ECS Impressions by AMIGALS [web]
• Succeeds in conveying an impression of variety in the repeated animations. Also cool "fadeout" effect.

  Cool, I didn't know about the top bits in BPLCON4, that would be even faster!

  
  Yeah, the color switching provided by BPLCON4 is an extremely useful (and probably quite underutilized) feature of AGA. The layer polarity of the 8 layers in the checkerboard effect in No-CPU Challenge is controlled entirely through BPLCON4. :)

  I wonder why Blueberry saw 376 and you and Photon see 369. Maybe some hardware sees the hsync signal and use previously received colors on the hardware Blueberry used? This is fascinating.

  
  I don't remember exactly which hardware I used to measure the maximum width back then, but most likely it was a MicroniK SCANDEX scandoubler.
  
  I have brought my old 1084 down from the attic. It needs a bit of cleaning, but then I'll do some testing on that one and report back.

• It's a hallmark of quality when a prod entices you to fire up the DMA debugger. ;)

• I get this distinct sense of being very close to the copper when watching this. Very happy that it got second place. Well deserved. No-CPU ftw! :-D

• This race entered the ridiculous territory (in a good way) when it surpassed 80 columns. At least it's still displayable. :)
  
  Congratulations on your record, Hannibal!

• demo invitation Amiga AGA No-CPU Challenge by Demostue Allst★rs
• Why this particular limitation? For several reasons:
  
  1. It's different. With most other common limitations, such as size, restricting display modes, conceptual content limitations etc., you can still mostly use your usual tools and processes to develop the demo. With this one, you have to approach the development in an entirely different way.
  
  2. It brings back the power to the AGA chipset. Most AGA demos from the last 30ish years have treated the custom chips as a primitive display device whose only job was to show the chunky pixels produced by the 68060.
  
  3. It has huge potential for technical diversity. This demo uses one copperlist per frame, each delegating to effect-specific copperlists that get modified with the blitter from various kinds of data. In contrast, the Interceptor Intro has just one copperlist and defines a simple abstract machine that gets interpreted by the blitter. There's a whole landscape to explore here.
