------ 1.Editorial ----------------------------------------------------------
Read offline. With music. Fill in some dead time. Weekly.
Every monday. Ask me to get subscribed. ITS FREE!
BTW: I got this on an email from someone i do not want to reveal:
I think you should write that it is public property and that
youre only an editor making an useful zine from chaos of informations.
Watch the title: DEMOjournal :
This is public property and i am only an editor making an usefull
newsletter out of LOTS of information. This is DEMOjournal not Psychics
journal.
I am looking for people to send in to me weekly the MOD, demo and
intro of the week texts so if you are interested on doing constructive review
of a MOD, demo or intro, be my guest to send that small review to me. If there
is no one willing to do it, ill keep on sharing my stupid, worthless opinions
with you all so better send it quickly for the sake of all readers.
Other than that, happy reading boys and girls. girls? where?

some news about da hungarian scene:
- antiq98 party was held, and it had a really great feeling. unfortunately
some vote faking happened. anyway the organizers did a really great job.
- astroidea released mutha 2 at antiq, but we expected much more from
them. most of the members write games nowadays, so maybe this is the
reason why mutha 2 was done in a week of hurry. orome and ward super
graphicians : joined.
- fleur will be a bit delayed, cause ezah had two hd crashes in 3 weeks,
and most of the translated articles got lost. we hope we can release it in
october though. the music was done by sed/dilemma and carlos/mandula.
- exceed released riprap what has a really cool feeling at antiq. get it
fast.
- the next hungarian party called cache will be held in 9-11 october.
- wanna have more hungarian stuff? go to d-eyes.jpte.hu ftp site.
- dilemma started to create deep somewhereover 2. we hope we can finish
this demo in 98, but time will tell it. we won the 1st place in the 1kb
intro compo at antiq98 with scant. get it from

------ 5.Interview of the week ----------------------------------------------
Psychic Symphony interviews young and ambitious portuguese coder
called Programmed!
PsychicSymphony first up tells who are you... name, age, group, alien
origins, shoe size, height, weight, that stuff!
Programmed My name is Filipe
Programmed Im from Portugal
Programmed and i am 15 years old, Im the founder of ActiveFuel demogroup
Programmed I think Im from another dimension, but I dont know why
Programmed Im not very tall
Programmed and... thats all
PsychicSymphony ActiveFuel? how come no one has heard about it? what are
you doing lately?
Programmed One day, I had an idea maybe I should create a new demogroup
and I did it
Programmed Now, we are trying to do a demo for 1998 .PT Party
Programmed We are 14 and we work well, I think...
Programmed Almost all have different ages, so this is not a teenager group
Programmed We are all guys, but it would be nice to have a girl in our
group, but thats not possible, for now... :
PsychicSymphony all of the members are portuguese then?
Programmed Yes
PsychicSymphony thats good
PsychicSymphony what do you feel about the rest of portuguese demoscene
then?
Programmed I know a few groups and I think they are good, but portuguese
demosceners arent known so well in the rest of the world
PsychicSymphony and why is that?
Programmed Why? I dont know, but we are going to try to show the world
that portuguese demosceners and programmers are good and need to be known
as the others
PsychicSymphony dont you think you need a little more experience to do
that? i mean your only 15... some people are around for up to 5 years!
PsychicSymphony dont you think it will be just a little hard to prove what
your worth in such small time?
Programmed Yes, ofcourse, we all need to learn more
Programmed But, if we work all together we learn more because we all help
each other
Programmed And we are not going to work very hard to learn fastest but,
ofcourse we are going to take a long time to reach the other demogroups
PsychicSymphony and you feel like you can do it? reach other demogroups
level?
Programmed I dont know, maybe yes, maybe no
Programmed It depends on our work
PsychicSymphony ok! time for think fast!
PsychicSymphony first demo
Programmed First demo?
Programmed maybe this year, maybe next year
Programmed we dont know
Programmed im working on a 3D Engine to make a 3D Effect like the one in
Second Reality
Programmed The problem is not the code, its the time...
PsychicSymphony best demo?
Programmed I saw many demos of this year and past years
Programmed but I really like the antique Second Reality
Programmed I think its very well done
PsychicSymphony aliens
Programmed Aliens? Im one of them... So, be careful, we are thinking to
attack Earth, but there I have a lot of friends
PsychicSymphony windows
Programmed bah, remembers me Bill....
PsychicSymphony dos
Programmed Old Operating System, but very good...
PsychicSymphony linux
Programmed Slackware rulez.... if pnp crash -h now :
PsychicSymphony want to say hi to anyone?
Programmed yes
Programmed I want to say Hi to my friendz of ActiveFuel and Coders. And
finally Hi mom!
PsychicSymphony want to say anything else or can i close this interview
down?
Programmed You may close this interview.
* PsychicSymphony closes the enterview... :P
PsychicSymphony END

------ 6.Demo of the week ---------------------------------------------------
Psychic Symphony
Iceberg by Suburban Creations
Code: Crossbone
Music: Mindwalker
3D: Tomac and Crossbone
Not sure! But i think this one got second at evoke98!
Yes i picked it because Minwalker is portuguese and promised to
do a music for my groups next demo! I dont give a shit that the 3D scenes are
marvelous and the effects very graphically polished! And that they got a
totally unfair 5th place at mekka98 with a very similar yet bigger demo! I
just care on mindwalker and the tune for evolves upcoming demo! I am
selfish! Sue me!
------ 7.Intro of the week --------------------------------------------------
Psychic Symphony
Photon by Purple
Code: Vipa
Gfx: Vipa and Thorsten
Music: Thorsten
Just for the sake of making a windows version of a good intro!
Second place at The Gathering 98 i believe! or was it first? I am
to lazy to check! Go get this intro, check out the brilliant design! If
anyone asks you for a windows intro give them photon32 instead of the normal
TBLs kick ass intros!
------ 8.MOD of the week ----------------------------------------------------
Psychic Symphony
Candy Girl by a-move and velvet of Amable
Assign is still unreachable with all this evoke98 stuff going on
so i must choose a tune once again! This time its evoke98 multichannel
music competition winner!
Very good polished strings!
A couple of nicely placed vocals.
A general good enviroment feel. I like the songs for their feeling,
call me nuts but i like them when they feel right and this one feels like that!
It just feels good to listen too! and thats what its all about at the end!
Congratulations to a-move and velvet on another brilliant tune to add
to their private feels good repertoire! Keep up the good work! :

------ 10.Quote of the week -------------------------------------------------
Psychic Symphony
May your feet be covered in snot and rare fungus!
B.Witched april 1997
Context: I bothered him with that the colors on his picture where
not palette wise aligned! He didnt like it! I forgot the small detail of
telling him the graphic was very good BEFORE i told him about the colors!
Anyways... It took me 2 weeks to come up with using an extra array
to store the colors numbers so i could swap the colors clockwise on the pic!
And so the logo for my very first intro was finally done! And we all studied
like hell for the 12th grade exams that followed!
Maybe one day i will do a Splat! II The truth still lies above!
Maybe the anvil will actually fall with gravity pull speed and the
sprites will be transparent and the blood will look more real and the rabbit
wont just blink his eyes occasionally! Who knows...
------ 11.Charts ------------------------------------------------------------
It works like this: Tell me who you think just released a kick-ass
production in any category! I will add it to the charts! At the end of the
month i will withdrawn 1 point from each votee! Anytime anywhere! If you see
me or my e-mail anywhere, start telling me who rules! Ill note it down!

Szum/Cryogen Dragon.vs.fleur Psychic Symphony
OK! So this is what happened:
Me all happy checking email come upon szums email addressed to me,
nephoo and assign!
subject: DEMAND OF APOLOGIES!
Er... I lost the original email! That wouldnt be a problem if i
hadnt promised szum to post it! OOPS!
Basically he wanted apologies for the following news posted on
demojournal number 3:
Dragon4 wasnt released at Gravity III - reason: small problems
inside group, Szum/Cryogen left group and has stolen whole english
articles for Fleur magazine.
He is not an article thief! Something happened and nephoo heard about
it and wrote the best english version he could and i corrected the english on
that version the best i could and so we ended up with this mess!
I will post the second email he sent to me with my original
justifications and apologies on the numbers!
-Start quote-
hi Psychic Symphony
im glad that youve answered my email, and im satisfied of yours
apologies indeed personal apologies are accepted:
1. i am responsible for demojournal! me alone!
ok.. how long are you releasing that demonews?
2. i cant check all news! if i did i wouldnt need some people filling me
in on news!
So Nephoo did a little mistake, anyway all is now OK.. i dunno who
spreaded such false news, but similar were in Hugi12 too, but there
wasnt anything about stealing. Im not an article stealer.
Also the Dragon4 has just been released and there is english corner
WITH this articles. see: ftp://amber.bti.pl /scene/mags/dragon
3. i see your point! this very mail will be posted on demojournal aside
with my apologies! editors note: NOT THIS ONE! the one i lost! :
OK. i accept. thanx:
4. your welcome to help me out making demojournal more accurate! by that
just send articles like the one you did! or news, your votes anything at
all!
Hmm.. articles are quite hard thing for me. Im not native speaker, and
im doing much mistakes etc.. all what i write im sending to Fleur, im
in there a co-editor or whatever. But ill try to help you with news,
also you can send me voteform to fill in.
5. i am sorry this happened! but hell... life sukz and then you die!
i just hope this doesnt mean life or death on poland! i am sorry!
OK: thanx:
so. greetz...
Yours Sincerelly:
Szum/Cryogen
-end quote-
Szum is no longer bothered with me or demojournal then! STILL, I
promised him i was going to post his original mail and failed to do that!
So i must apologize once again! I am sorry Szum! Didnt do it on purpose!
Just happened!
Other people who may read this e-mail might think that i am playing
around with szum and the whole situation! I AM NOT! It happened, Szum felt
insulted! I apologized the best way i could, there are no second intentions
whatsoever! Just me asking an apologie for something that went wrong under
my responsibility!
I also talked with ezah/dilemma fleurs editor and he says he
doesnt know anything about this! My guess is, it was just a rumour spread
on gravity98 when people heard dragon wasnt going to be released at the
party place! Anyways... The articles werent stolen, szum now writes for
fleur and dragon4 is already released with the english articles mentioned!
One big mess that i hope it ends here!

This is not a diskmag review article! This is not a flame! This
is not a feedback! Its just what is on my mind. People who dont like to
read subjective points of view may skip this article!
Its not worth denying Adok assembles Hugi and is the main responsible
for it, so i guess this text goes out to him...
Adok:
Keep up Hugi diskmag project! HTML links where great idea and the
dos / windows32 versions where ideal for that kind of diskmag!
Small clitches still need fix like choosing the tune you want to play
from within the mag! And main section article selection using only the keyboard!
Other than these small details HUGI has really taken yet another major jump
on the right direction!
Articles where still on lower number then imphobia but that would be
to ask to much! The interviews are a lot better and interesting than the ones
on the previous issue. Add that to the fact that you have assembled this whole
thing in just two and a half months and you have something to look back with
pride!
At first i was disapointed at myself, seeing such a great mag compared
to my lousy demojournal made me feel bad! There are so many things i still need
to accomplish to remotly get near to your level of general demoscene knowledge
that it frightens me! you do have one problem: You write to much some times!
A good example are the chart counting system explanation, everybody
who has remotly though about counting some votes has stumbled upon that
problem and understands perfectly your point without you needing to babble
about it for more then 100 lines! I bet most people havent read all that text!
A critic to the chart results was a nice touch! Senior sceners get
to know what happened with some productions they though to be on the top and
fresh sceners learn a little more on demoscene background and history!
Seeing demojournal 1 review all over again made me feel bad again!
OK, so it was childish, but it was only issue number one! You didnt had to
slaughter me with every line i released! The only part i enjoyed reading was
the introduction and the last two paragraphs! I do believe demojournal has
taken a leap for better past four issues!
Party calendar was totally brain-crushing! I felt like a kid thinking
the world is restrained to his neighbour-hood! Never realized there would be
so many new parties announced. I was expecting a couple of them, not the
double!
Last but not least a small comment on a specific article you wrote:
we dont need two-members begginer groups! Hey man, i used to be a member
of a two-member begginer group! There was nothing wrong with it! The only
part that went wrong was when i started to get more aware on the scene and
the other member didnt! I started getting some more people into the group,
people i didnt knew well enough! It all belongs in the past! My old group
is dead and i am happy with my new one! With other demosceners who are aware
of whats going on and like me want to contribute! BTW: We already have a
name... Shock suggested Evolve! Me and idiotboy accepted! :
Well... Thats it i guess. Nothing more to say about HUGI!
Its simply the best diskmag around! Keep up the good work.

Poems
What is wrong with you people? Didnt you spend whole years analising
the form and content of poems at school? Every time i read a poem in a
diskmag i dont like it! Dont get me wrong some are good. Most are crap!
You just want to let your feelings out... An example are love poems:
I love her
She does not love me
Oh no! I feel bad
Im gonna kill myself
This shit aint a poem! This is four short sentences. Four short
sentences do not make a poem! At least make some verses rhyme. Or have the
same sylabus counting! Something like:
Oh! I do love you...
Why cant you love me too?
My inner soul cant bear
The though of you not near!
See? It rhymes. And it has remotly close sylabus counting! It aint
that hard! Just think on what you want to say and use easy endings of verses
for starters, the oo sound for example: you, too, blue, uhuhuh! Anything!
Poetry isnt just writing what your feeling inside! Its doing it
on a mysterious way, thats the beauty of it! Playing with the words, showing
off your vocabulary. Thats why girls are suckers for poetry! They like
feelings and they like to hear them! The more time they spend thinking about
what the hell your saying the better!
I aint no marriage councierge but if your writing some of this crappy
stuff to impress a girl, you better start re-thinking your approach strategy!
If, on the other hand, youre just writing for the sake of putting down
what youre thinking then either write a diary or read a couple more REAL poems
before you go on!
Poetry isnt just a bunch of words! Theres more to it! Theres 4 main
writing styles:
-Classical style
-Normal style
-Rich style
-Cyberpunk style
Classical style is like on those RPGs like Ultima! Where we use very
classicaly british terms like thee, foe, indeed, thus and similar!
They sound very well if you impose a certain english accent!
Normal style is something in between yo, wassup! and the normal day
to day chit-chat! Read it with a normal voice like if you were talking with
somebody you know for a long time! Of course that typical US words must be
read with a yo brotha wassup attitude! Something like the beastie boys only
not so fast!
Rich style is when you apply certain weirdo terms like possessibly,
enriching, magnitude, overimposed and stuff like that!
Cyberpunk is my favorite style! Imagine a decadent society when
you realize everyone around is stupid and ignorant and yet you cant do
shit about it! You start saying things like:
My mind wanders across all those missguided people that stumble upon
each other not knowing what the future holds yet i wonder how did the society
came to such a point with such an haste.
This should be read with a melancolic voice. Extending certain words
sounds! Instead of readind those like dose you read douoseeeee. Can you
see the diference? Well, it exists! Didnt you ever saw The Max or
Neon Flux on Mtv?
OK! Enough on what your english teacher should have taugh you! Think
twice or at least read it twice before sending a poem to a diskmag or
newsletter! I realise the poem seems meaningless after you read it a couple
of times, you already know what it means and dont really care on going over
the subject and so you only concentrate on the words and not their meaning!
Theres a very simple way to get past this:
Either you are bored to death in the middle of a class and couldnt
care less on your mates or teacher! Or you can go get something to eat. Just
going through a little strool will make you think about something else and so
when you come back to the poem you will have to re-read it whole and this time
you will take more attention to overall details and not just one specific line
yet when you read it you will notice what would sound better than what is
written, thus you find a nice line to replace that bad line!
Enough on poems! Back to boring reality!
