I would appreciate it even. I'm only putting the pieces together. It's our scene! let's make things happen... I must say i am a bit dissapointed with this issue! The first week i didn't talked with people to get things going and i was left without anything done! Assign replyed to my mail and so he sent this week's MOD of the week! Dave showed his face up without any request whatsoever (which i am very pleased at!) on the other hand, adok failed to send back the interview i sent him a week ago in time for this issue! (must not check email to often!) Both nephoo and binar we're no where to be seen. Nice to see at least one person keeps on voting every week UNLIKE CERTAIN PEOPLE WHO ONLY VOTE WHEN I ASKED THEM TO GET ON THE LIST! (or vice-versa) I don't know... Maybe my e-mail server was down or something... or maybe people are starting not to care anymore! Anyways... Andr0meda / Green got in touch and so the demoscener list got bigger and gap-less! Some other touches by myself we're added! These reasons adding to a rather lack of articles are the main reason why the newsletter got smaller. I guess it had to stabilize some day! I'm still looking for someone to send in the intro of the week text so if you are interested on doing some constructive reviews, be my guest to send that text to me. Other than that, hope you enjoy the reading! Psychic Symphony I HATE EDITORIALS! I always write things down thinking that's the last time i am going to read them and then i do some changes and have to write it all over again! I got the idea of Wired98 walk-through and that boosted up the newsletter about 20k which made the latest issue to be the biggest aswell once again! I hate it! What the hell am i supposed to write down on the editorial now? I am happy but i am not! ARGH! The hell with it... I leave it like it is. You guys are smart, think about what i should write instead of this stuff... That's what i should have written! -------------- ------| 2.Demonews |----------------------------------------------------------- -------------- Dave: News from Spain: þ Here you have a couple of some groups in the demoscene in Spain. This is only a collection and it's incomplete, but however here you will find the releases of many famous groups in the demoscene in my country like MCD, Dosis, Centolos.... Note that I haven't included the url of my group (PhyMosys). This is because we are moving to another sites, so our old url will disappear. The 'ftp' for downloading the magazines continues being the same as before: ftp://ftp.gui.uva.es/pub/magazines/Phymosys ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÂÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÂÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ³ Site ³ Group ³ English ³ ÃÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÅÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÅÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ´ ³ ³ ³ ³ ³ http://www.salleurl.edu/~is05678/mcd.html ³ MCD ³ YES ³ ³ http://bebe.uv.es/~fgonzale/tlotb.html ³ TLOTB ³ YES ³ ³ http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/1024/dosis.html ³ DOSIS ³ NO ³ ³ http://personal.redestb.es/marcos/ ³ CENTOLOS ³ YES ³ ³ http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Vista/6305/ ³ WILD BITS ³ YES ³ ³ ³ ³ ³ ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÁÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÁÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ Take special attention to MCD page which is filled with a lot of nice stuff of the demoscene... lot of quality releases and nice design in the page. ...and for those who are interested in MUSIC-DISKS and Music releases, don't forget to visit 'WILD BITS' page. Musicians will like. As you will notice (if visit the sites) is that demoscene is very active in Spain. þ Ah!.. and Arancha Sanchez Vicario won Schnyder. ;) Yeah!, We(Spain) won the federal cup, in tennis. That's all from Spain. CU! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Psychic Symphony: Oh yeah? Portuguese soccer team beat hungary 3-0 juniors and 3-1 on seniors! Eat my shorts! ;) Oh! And a small, little remark: pt.party is called off! After reading about DejaVu and talking with mindwalker where he stated and i quote: 'better have nothing than have some shitty party no one wants to spend gas cash to go there!' I decided to give it up! It was not properly though through anyways... I just had a probable place where people could stay! That's hardly an organization. What about food? And support? And prizes? And having entries for the competitions? Just not worth the trouble i would get! I hope Codewiz and ^Magico^ are still thinking of organizing a REAL party on the summer of 1999! :( ------------------------- ------| 3.Thought of the week |------------------------------------------------ ------------------------- A turtle might walk slow but rabbits can't swim! --------------- ------| 4.Party on! |---------------------------------------------------------- --------------- Starts: Ends: Country: Name: Contact: Oct 1998 Hungary JuMPer '98 Oct 1998 Hungary ReFLeX '98 http://www.nexus.hu/slsp Oct 02 - Oct 05, 1998 Norway The Convention 1998 www.convention.com Oct 09 - Oct 11, 1998 Hungary CaCHe II '98 www.datanet.hu/cache98 Oct 28 - Oct 31, 1998 Sweden Compusphere X http://www.compusphere.org Oct 29 - Nov 01, 1998 Sweden DreamHack '98 http://www.dreamhack.org Oct 30 - Nov 01, 1998 Sweden ACG-Hack X http://hack.amiga-cg.se Nov 07 - Nov 08, 1998 Poland Satellite '98 madbart@jormas.com Nov 13 - Nov 15, 1998 Germany Dialogos '98 http://www.kassablanca.de/dialogos98 Dec 1998 Israel Movement '98 Dec 19 - Dec 20, 1998 Romania Dracula '98 Dec 27 - Dec 29, 1998 Denmark The Party 1998 http://www.theparty.dk Mar 1999 Italy Trip 99 Mar 31 - Apr 04, 1999 Norway The Gathering '99 Apr 02 - Apr 05, 1999 Germany Mekka & Symp. 2k-1 http://ms.demo.org May 29 - May 30, 1999 Germany Komso/Neithernor'99 http://neithernor.demo.org Jun 17 - Jun 20, 1999 Sweden Remedy '99 http://www.remedy.nu --------------------------- ------| 5.Interview of the week |---------------------------------------------- --------------------------- Oh, well!

I did a picture for Takeover98 this year, thats the only released gfx this year what place did that pic get? I made the graphics for the Jello demo from Tp7 the pic got 7th I guess and that pic is also in headrush intro from jello, but in a very scaled format :) ahah! i knew it! next question please :))) what do you study in the university?

Santa has been on our doorsteps, he is too fat nowadays to get down the chimney what is the capital of madagascar? Pipoltown ahahah! antananarivo! got you! more seriously now... tell us about your past... how did it all got started? whadda hell, next question plis :) It all started when I got an a500 in 89 I think, and yes I played alot of games then, but in 90-91 I saw something called demos on it and were amazed :) I joined different groups that I cant remember now, mostly lame groups :) So I began to get interested in gfx and used dp2 then dp3 then dp4 And I made some gfx on a500, but none of it was ever used in any prods .)))) so in 94 I sold my a500 got a pc, and was completely a beginner again :) found out about that there was an demoscene on pc too and started to do some swapping in 95 the swapping took most of my time the first years on pc scene I found out that there was dp2 on pc in 95 but unfortunately it was no better version of dp, I was used to dp4 on amiga what happened then? but I learnt and did some gfx, but nothing was released I began to get interest in music too at that time but I will never be a good musician have I learnt now .) so I made some gfx, and began to use photoshop in 97 and joined jello in 97 and finaly your stuff is being used? or not really? and then I got the amazing grafx2 which is far better than dp2 Jello used my stuff and I was happy :) whee! and now Im got lazy again with drawing :) hehe I was also in a group called Spin and Nail on pc before joining jello next question please .)))) what are your favorite demos and why Hmm, 303,Stars and Sunflower why? because they have an cool feeling :) have you seen more recent demos? yepp Plastic was cool plastik! not plastic... plastik! its very different! :P you have any design ideas then? or not really... ok, sorry :) graphicians tend to have some weird ideas on how the demos should look like! you are like that? yepp you feel like sharing them... weird 3d objects combined with lots of weird 2d effects which are synchronized to the music, every object is synchronized to an specific sample :)) Demos should be weird :) there should be no story in demos :) what about a theme like in sunflower... weird! i had that idea too... to use an effect/object moving at the flow of each different channel! well, I dont know if its a theme in sunflower but the linking is good hehe :) aint you a graphician too :) no! im a wannabe coder! :( tell us more on the future then... plans for tp98 maybe... hehe well, I will probably not go to tp8 because of exams etc but hope to make a picture for the gfx compo time will tell what country are you from again?

Very good jazz music from carlos during the whole demo. Very nice hi-color effects. Special mention to some new effects like voxel balls, multi-directional voxel texture tunnel and liquid metal. Not forgetting some tweaked 3D and 2D metaballs! Some graphical output by Frame fits in nicely aswell. Also some mention to some hi-color fractal's which also look lovely! Finishing is an anagram scroolie at the sound of a funky music! Indeed deserved first place! Very fresh, happy and original demo. Go get it now! PS- Hey look! It's me on the greets! My first greets! :~) How cute... 'PS AND LABEL' turns into 'BALED PLANS'. Baled plans? Heeeeyyyy roooooooooddddd... Psychic Symphony ----------------------- ------| 7.Intro of the week |-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- 'Sin(x)' by Dawn 3 Code: Brainpower Gfx: Ruptuh Music: Distance/lackluster^monotonik^orange^TPOLM 3rd place at The Gathering '98, 64k intro competition. Effects well synced with sound, a very nice feeling this intro gives out. Effects are mainly distortions and some little 'design' clitches! Special mention to the fact that this intro is not GUS-only like most other 64k! And that's the way it should be. Also, this one is a little tribute to the one and only BrothomStates so you better go check it out! Psychic Symphony --------------------- ------| 8.MOD of the week |---------------------------------------------------- --------------------- "back the fuck up" & "dub one" by deginge / league of kaoz lok_btfu.zip @ www.loknet.demon.co.uk since i didn't find any really good fresh tracks this week, i decided to mention one of my alltime-favourites : deginge's ep for lok featuring the two .xms "back the fuck up" and "dub one".. "back the fuck up" is hardstep drum'n'bass, garantued to rock about every venue: energetic, mashed up beats (-new- and interesting breaks used !), a hard and distorted bassline, heavy metal attitude.. 'uhoh, 08/15 hardstep' you may think, but the tune manages to avoid nearly all schemes and that damn twostep beat, too.. at many parts it even builds up it's very own swing, underlined by very nice syncopic percussions and shakers.. great ! "dub one", the second tune of the ep, is a bit more experimental.. tribal drumloops, dub bassline and jungle breaks are a very interesting combination - the 'smoke ganja' and 'legalize it' messages in the module text don't surprise when listening to the track :) anyway, deginge should definitely try to get those two tunes on vinyl some day ! at least i'd keep on playing them :) assign (assign@usa.net, www.tdr.scene.org) ----------------------- ------| 9.Commercial break! |-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- ._______________________________________ | ______ | ________|__ \ / | __________\ _ / o ______( )_ o | ____ _/ \\// /_ - _\ \ / - | \__ \\ \/_______/----------\______\ /-------------' (__\\ \ _ \__//\ \____________\ "¯"¾x. ,¾%%x: ,,__ /__\ h7 _ __ ___ ,¾¾l l¾¾· :¾¾l ___ __ _ \\(( \--------------------,x¾×'---- ¾¾¾ l¾¾: -----------------/ ))// \_ ,x¾×' .¾¾l ¾¾¾. _/ : ,%¾×' ¾¾ :¾¾: ¾¾¾ . ¾¾X...___i¾l l¾¾ :¾¾¾ m o n o 2 1 1 """'''''^^^: """ l¾¾l [.mono211.eklektikelektronikmusik.] [....http://www.scene.org/mono....] ²ÛÛÛ ²ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÝßßßß ²ÛÛÛÝ° ²ÛÛÛÝ° ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛݲÛÛÛÝÛÛÛÛÝ ²ÛÛÛÛÜÛÛÛÛÝ ²ÝÛÛÛÝßÞÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛݲÛÛÛÝ²Ý ²ÛÛÛÝ ²ÛÛÛÛÝ http://milk.sgic.fi ßßß ÞÛÛÝ Ü ÛÛÛ ÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜ ÞÛÛÝ ß ÜÜÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÜÜ Ûßßßß ÛÛÛ ÜÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÜ Ü ÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÜÛÜÜ ° °²²ÛÛÛ ÞÛÛÝ ß ÜÜ ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛ²Û²²²°° ° ßÛÛÜ ßÛÛÜ ßßßÛÛÛßßß Üß ÛÛÛÛ ÛÛÜ ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛ ÜÛÛÛÝ ts ÞÛÛ ÞÛÛÝ ÜÛß ÞÛÛÛ ÞÛßß ÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛß ßÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÝ ÜÛÛÛÛß ÜÜÜÛÛÝ ÜÛßßßÛÜ ÛÛÛÜßßÛÜ ßÛÛÜ ÞÛÛÝßß ßÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÝ ÛÛÛ ÞÛÝ ÞÛÝ ÞÛÛÝ ßÛÜ ßßÛÜÜÜÜÜÛÛÛÜ ßßßÛÛ ² ÛÛÛ ° ß²ÜÜÜÛß ° ÛÛÛ ß ÜÛÛß ÛÜÛß Ü² ² ÞÛÛÝ ß ÞÛÛ t o k y o ² ÛÛÜ ÜÛ ÛÛÛ ß ßßßßß² d a w n ùùÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ ° Ä ßßÛÛÛÛÛÛÛÛßß Ä ÞÛÛÝ ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ ßÜÜ ° Ä ° r e c o r d s ÄÄÄÄÄùù ÛÛ²°° ° ßß² ÞÛÛÝ Ü ÛÛÛ ÞÛÛÝ http://tdr.scene.org ÛÛÛ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$$$ $$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$ we love tpolm. $$$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ http://tpolm.scene.org http://geecs.org/~nico <--- for a complete mental experience < - - - - - - - -> ./ P@lS3C@M msx group da music : post_industrial da sounds : ambient_experimental da noise : avant_garde ...palsecam /.

After the ceremonial after-party LONG sleep, i ate and sit down in front of my computer writing what i recalled! Some things are wrong, i know that now but i haven't changed my report because it reflects the mood i was in at the time! :) After that follows the official results and last but not least the moral of this whole belgian experience! Enjoy. Psychic Symphony -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Wired98 report Firstly there was a lot of shit that happened before the actual party so let me start by a small briefing of pre-party stuff: 1st i wanted to go there by plane but it depended on the exams since i still hadn't finished them all... I flunked AM2 1st call and couldn't get a reserve to brussels so i was thinking i would go by train if i passed the 2nd call. (3rd call was on wired98's saturday) 2nd call went bad as hell so i got really angry and decided to release the f"#$&@g demo the sooner i could! So i sent it to some friends and put it on cdrom.com... I passed AM2 at the 2nd call... Oops! :P Now what? Fortunately i got a last minute ticket to brussels so i ditch the train plan... I talk to kombat/imortals on irc and we fix to meet up at the airport and to find our way to hornu/wasmes... So i'm at Zaventhem airport in belgium waiting for tel-aviv plane to land... waiting... and waiting... it's around now... this short guy with a backpack, a bed-roll and some sort of briefcase comes thru the doors... I go ask him: 'You now anything about computers?' 'Finaly!' he answers back... :P It's kombat! We go exchange some cash then to the bathroom and finaly we go buy a train ticket to mons. After some mind-storm i ask this guy at the subway if that was the train to mons and so we enter the train! Now we are at Mons. Already seen enough cows to last for a lifetime! Are we supposed to catch a bus?!? Where? Which one? I thought it was better to get a cab... We even had a map. Kombat didn't agree but he came along! :P Remark: cabs in belgium are expensive as hell... And the cabbie didn't rip us off. They are just expensive. After the cabbie asked around a few times we get there and i get out to ask someone if this is it... Later i now he is Access/ Psychic__: Is this wired98? Access: Yes... And who are you? Psychic__: I am Psychic from portugal and that is kombat/immortals! Be right back! cabbie: 600 Bfr Kombat: Hey man... That cab driver ripped us off! (...) darkness: Psy-xic?!? Psychic__: ARGH! Learn how 2 speak english! darkness: i'm all fucked up... Need to get some sleep! We want to eat... Darkness says 'we go eat when we are done... wait a little!' OK! Let us see my demo in kombat's laptop... ARGH! I have forgotten setup.exe file at home... Fortunally i brought my HD with me. Met blade and talked about the spanish/portuguese scene for a bit... After some time we meet Scorpik/Pulse and KeyG who we're there sooner also. Access let me copy my file to my disk and so everything is fine. Except kombat's cpu is very weird and wouldn't run it properly! Me and kombat go eat with pitbull, PL, darkness, laurent, damien and some more guys which i can't remember the handles at the local McDonald's. (I think PL and damien came along... can't remember properly...) Time to sleep... kombat as usual playing with some ball before going to bed... Me sleeping at the table. My back hurts... :P Wake up... Small talk with scorpik and kombat... Party doors open! We re-enter! Now kombat is looking for internet connection and i'm looking around for something to kill the boredom. Oh goodie... We finally have irc up and running... Kombat starts talking to his homiez trying to get things going. I just stare at some more computers! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Can't sleep... We reconnect internet directly from the net-god's table and kombat starts reworking on his demo while i use the dead time to irc some friends and to let my mom now i'm alright! (Thanks brainpower!) Kombat goes 'backstage' to the organizers room to finish his demo while i take some more strools around... First 'old' demo shown on the big-screen was '303'! WOW! BIG! I can't stop smilling... Just when i was starting to wonder why the hell did i flown all the way here, the answer comes to me. :) But let's write about the compo's... Very nice ansi compo entries. Only one a little small... All other's we're BIG and awesome! C64 guys really put up a show at the begining of the party showing their TP7 winner... 2nd reality on a c64! At the compo they also ruled! Amiga was almost no where to be seen. One demo and one intro only! I liked the intro a lot: This fiercly music played while they zoomed in on the Quake character... Suddenly the music changes into a disco/jamm/happy tune and the quake guy starts moving his ass... crowd: *clap clap clap* lol This video of Fuel guys killing some machines, televisions and VCR's is playing when they call me on the intercom: someguy: Someone from Label please come to the main desk. the disk is corrupt! I guess it was because it was always in my pocket during all that time! No problem... I go get my HD and copy it to pitbull's computer! Since kombat is there also i stay there a while! Then the intro's start so i get back near the big-screen, some nice fractal entry's and a little 4k arkanoid clone game finishes the 4k compo... 100k game was cool aswell... 1st entry was this micromachines clone. 2nd one was a nice tetris game featuring massive dificulty effects... distortions, lens, rotations and all those weird effects we're combined all at once and the crowd went 'WOW!'. No.3 was a 'kill those lemmings'. And No.4 was a nice 5 player game recoded by eclipse. Can't remember 64k entry's properly but i remember quad won and calodox got 2nd... Met workbench/calodox at party afterhours! Kombat finished his demo and we both went check them at the compo machine so we were near the big-screen when darkness announced the coca-cola compo! Thirsty and sleepy i went 'ME!ME!ME!ME!ME!' and so i gave it a try. :) Darkness blown my concentration when he said something about me coming from such a long way to do so little and so i 'spitted' coke all over the place! :) Still went on trying but soon to realize it was just too much coke for such a small stomach! Blade went for the world-record but couldn't even win this year's 1st place... TSC TSC... :P With this little performance i drove screamager's attention and managed to meet him after all! He was hanging around with Mellow-d so i asked him to go and meet him aswell! Now i know how trackers look like... normal! :P Time for demo compo! I'm sitting 1st row... All nervous wondering if anyone is going to BOO my demo or not. 1st demo was better then mine only too many gfx and little of the rest. Nice fellows! I see LABEL very BIG written all over the place and can't help to smile What a feeling... When the 4th effect comes some guy recognizes art-of-fighting character! People even clapped at the end... I felt so good about it all. :) Since there we're some troubles getting the 3rd demo running i go ask kombat what he though about my demo! kombat: what? psychic__: demo... blue one... what do you think? kombat: what? psychic: DEMO! you now... those things on the big screen... kombat: ah! sorry! psychic__: so? what did you think? kombat: what? psychic__: go to sleep. He didn't see my demo... I don't blame him... one day and a half working on his demo. He has the right to fall asleep! After that deus-ex-machina demo was shown then some text mode demo... Quite good 3d and nice textmode conversion! Then to some really decent demos: First up it's fuel's demo i liked it a lot although some people say it was boring and design-less. I think it had nice gfx and looked very nice although music and design weren't really there! It crashed through last part. :P Quad demo run with some bugs aswell. Then some pyramids (or is that the same demo?!?) Anyway... One of these got 2nd with boring 3d scenes and bugs! After that came the winner demo: Cocoon's 'Shad' It was big! It was full of nice graphics and nice syncing aswell as a rather slow 3d and a lot of bugs! But it's still worth the first place. It was really BIG and GFX-full! Last but not least there was third place 'Stereo Mike' from Immortals Nice cross-fadings, a good 3d-engine, nice 3d-scenes including a domino sequence! Ending with this video of the party place... According to kombat the little thingie falling from the sky is a known windows proggie that i had never heard of, where these creatures walk around the monitor! That's why people clapped. I really liked kombat's demo above shad only it lacked some graphics and the music was just the normal... Stereo Mike name came from Bran Van 3000 music 'Drinking in LA' has i had predicted... So i started calling kombat stereo-mike and he started calling me pzich! :) Fallen asleep through the music compo and checked out some wild demos, Starwars was cool! With kombat sleeping i started getting connected and so i filled in the voting-disk and handed it out before starting to copy stuff! Look! There are all of the pamela anderson video's in here... (suck! suck!) Literally! lol that was a nice comment i think! There were more porn and emulators contraband around than demoscene stuff so i packed up my callus collection and took some manga porn back home since b.witched (aka iceball) is always asking me for them... (yeah right!) Between all this i managed to see 'ghost in the shell' which was really good because i wanted to see it for a long time now and it is really one of the best anime! Another movie played was '5th element' but since i had already seen it and was really tired i fell asleep once again! Some other video played was from this real time 3d rpg which looked fabulous! I don't recall the name. Some other remarks: Toilet system was very good. There was a place to sleep but i didn't use it because: 1st.hadn't brought my matress. 2nd.i fell asleep on my chair! Eaten about 6 burgers, one 'machine-gun' and LOTS of fries... Machine gun was discovered by scorpik and KeyG at the local town when me and kombat went with them to eat something... That was about noon! Didn't eaten nothing else the rest of the day! I was stuffed! I guess this is probably it... Don't want to bother you even more with small details like that kombat spent 1/4 of the compo money on a cab to the airport so he could catch his flight on time (remember the cab's beeing expensive?) and that i spent 22 hours at the airport waiting for my check-in! HEY! That's natalie imbruglia! That's why that american girl was so hardly trying to get a pen... Well. I don't have a pen nor a paper and i'm too tired to get up. She really looks shorty on real life! There she goes... Natalie Imbruglia is gone! Damn! No one is going to believe me now. I should have gone and asked her for an autograph. Shit! I DID SAW HER! If anyone ever talks to her, do ask if she wasn't in the brussels airport the 20th july 1998 in the afternoon... You'll see it's true! I managed to stay awake all that time and check-in... Managed to stay awake just another hour and entered the plane! I had a seat next to this really nice and beautifull belgium girl travelling to portugal to meet some friend for just a week. If i wasn't so tired i would have given her my email or telephone number or something... I fell asleep a couple of times on the plane and the stop at lisbon took forever! The girl was really very nice and sweet... Talking about girls... There we're quite a few of them at the party place which was surprising! Back to my flight... We (me and the girl!) arived at porto around noon and said goodbye when i saw my mother which had come to pick me up! While i was waiting in the car for my mother which had to go back and pay for the airport parking place i saw the girl again! She was really a nice person! :P What the hell am i writing about?!? Brought back 2 voting disks (one for B.Witched), all 3 party T-shirts and the wrist bandana as souvenirs! And ofcourse dreams2 CD! :) When i phoned brainpower to thank him he got really pissed-off at me for my manners over the phone. I guess i'll stop calling him... He lives 100m away from me and everytime we talk on the phone something happens that pisses one of us off! I'll start emailing him only. I don't get it. Forget about it! Belgium experience is over... 5 days little less then 90.000 escudos which is around 400 dolars if i'm not mistaken... Was it worth it? I guess so! I didn't pay for it... My folks did. Still it's a lot of cash and i didn't even took my computer to the party! :( If i go to another party it will be either for almost free or i can take my computer with me... Maybe in one year when i have my driver's license i'll drive from portugal to some french party. ltp, volcanic, RTS or something like that... Who knows... Recovering from wired98... See you at wired2097 and don't forget to check out the last place demo label-sk.zip (skyscape from label) which actually didn't got last place because it got 12 points.

What has happened since then until now? For once i have met more people over irc. Just having that party in common made a whole different story! I learned a lot more on #demofr and started being a regular there aswell! Which has been nice. Talking with TuO/skytech and sh0dan/arf! studios, djamm, made/bomb, [___z___], dr.yes, skal/bomb, asphyx, dake/calodox, cyg/blabla, aph, kalmindo and the rest has been a really positive experience! In fact, the idea of this demojournal was mostly discussed with these guys and then taken over to #pixel (where adok waited for my reply while i was talking in #demofr) and finally #coders! Also #trax were i saw assign and asked him to give me a hand! Hey! This is about wired, not demojournal! What else? Met legendary people like scorpik, darkness, mellow-d, screamager and the such! Got a real good friend called ohad pressman (kombat) Also i got the taste of a demoparty with all good and bad things it brings! Some good things: -got new contacts -saw belgium sights -practiced my french -entered weird conversations no one understood -saw things on the big screen... REALLY BIG! -saw amiga and C64 productions for the first time! -saw how the professionals do their thing! (kombat working!) Examples of bad things: -slept on chairs and benchs for 4 whole days -ate junk food and drink coke whenever possible -died of boredom without a computer to play around in a hall full of computers! -didn't get to kick kombat's ass at quake! -forgot to take a tooth-brush! (ICK!) Oh well... You win some, you loose some! I am still proud of trying to get the last place at a demoparty! At least i got 12 deserved points! My demo worked all the way! Not like some others who got points and didn't even got shown on the big screen or crashed halfways! At least i did my job well! It's not my fault everyone else has done better! ;) Psychic Symphony -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Something is wrong! Me all happy checking out some old MOD's that survived after my 'already have it on dreams2' clean up! Unfortunaly i deleted more than i should have and now i notice some musics are missing and that i will have to re-download them! Anyways... I come upon 'synapse' musicdisk by garfield, which is one of the best portuguese trackers. And i recall something about him releasing a song in assembly... I go check the results on Hugi#12. Demos, intros, animations, wildcompos, ahah, music... 15 got selected, i don't see his name so i start scrooling down, and down, and down, and even more down. I check his entry but that seizes to be important, i keep scrooling down... 154 entrys? 15 got selected? out of 154? I start scrooling up looking at all those 0pts... Liam the Lemming, loonie, tonic, tremor, md, strala, so many people i have heard about didn't got selected! I guess that shows that the selection didn't go in favor of known persons! Fair enogh but still... 154? At 4 minutes each track, that makes... 616 minutes! That's over 10 hours of music! Humm... I guess i understand why only 15 got selected! After 20 minutes you get tired of just hearing the music, imagine 10 hours straight doing nothing more then to listen to music recalling which ones were the best among 154 tunes... I feel sorry for the selection team! I wouldn't venture! 10 hours! Geez... If we wanted to put the music on audio CD we would need about 9 CD's! And me thinking music isn't that bountifull! 10 whole hours released on just one weekend! I guess it's time to get back to '10 disks worth' download per day! I just don't know where the hell am i going to put all that stuff, only have about 75 megs on the main partition. Guess i'll have to drop by the store to pick up either a zip drive or an extra HD. Oh well!
