  • Computer Demos—What Makes Them Tick?
    AALTO UNIVERSITY School of Science and Technology Faculty of Information and Natural Sciences Department of Media Technology Markku Reunanen Computer Demos—What Makes Them Tick? Licentiate Thesis Helsinki, April 23, 2010 Supervisor: Professor Tapio Takala AALTO UNIVERSITY ABSTRACT OF LICENTIATE THESIS School of Science and Technology Faculty of Information and Natural Sciences Department of Media Technology Author Date Markku Reunanen April 23, 2010 Pages 134 Title of thesis Computer Demos—What Makes Them Tick? Professorship Professorship code Contents Production T013Z Supervisor Professor Tapio Takala Instructor - This licentiate thesis deals with a worldwide community of hobbyists called the demoscene. The activities of the community in question revolve around real-time multimedia demonstrations known as demos. The historical frame of the study spans from the late 1970s, and the advent of affordable home computers, up to 2009. So far little academic research has been conducted on the topic and the number of other publications is almost equally low. The work done by other researchers is discussed and additional connections are made to other related fields of study such as computer history and media research. The material of the study consists principally of demos, contemporary disk magazines and online sources such as community websites and archives. A general overview of the demoscene and its practices is provided to the reader as a foundation for understanding the more in-depth topics. One chapter is dedicated to the analysis of the artifacts produced by the community and another to the discussion of the computer hardware in relation to the creative aspirations of the community members.

  • Demoscene: 30 Years of Creative Programming
    Demoscene: 30 years of creative programming Markku Reunanen [email protected] Demoscene? ● A technologically and creatively oriented community – A subculture? Hackers? Hobbyists? ● Started already in the early 1980s ● Main artifact: demos, real-time audiovisual presentations (and a lot more) Whoami ● Demo research since 2004 – Demoscene Research with Antti Silvast – Articles, WiderScreen thematic issue ● One of them, too. Mostly as a coder and a graphician (1991–) – Very common among other researchers as well Where are demos made? ● Largely a European phenomenon, esp. (West) Germany and the Nordic Countries ● East Europe and Russia long behind the iron curtain, more activity after that ● Scarce elsewhere – Why? Hackers, otakus, technical reasons “A typical scener” ● Heavily male-dominant hobby – As they've tended to be in general ● Originally teenagers and youngster – Later on, growing old – not necessarily a youth culture anymore – … and little rotation Demogroups ● Demos are mostly made by groups – 3–5 people participate actively – Big and international groups, too ● Names such as: Scoopex, The Physical Crew, Booze Design ● And the Members have handles: Dr. Acid, Slayer, Marq – Notation: Broti/Digital Talk (“of”) Roles ● You need at least a: – Programmer (coder) – Musician – Graphician – In essence, quite standard roles ● Other duties, too: – Leader, organizer, swapper, SysOp, hangaround, mascot etc. Parties ● An important part of the culture – Started as copyparties – Networking, competitions, getting wasted – Typically yearly events (these days) ● Assembly, Revision, The Gathering, Alternative Party (The Party, Breakpoint) ● Party photos: http://www.slengpung.com/ Parties (2) Not only demos ● Sceners produce a lot more – Images – Music – Videos – Disk magazines, diskmags (esp. 1990s) – These days also some games – Not all productions are digital Diskmags ● Scene journalism: R.A.W.

Throughout its approximately thirty years of existence it has changed in a number of ways, due to both external and internal fac- tors. The most evident external driver has been the considerable technological devel- opment of the period, which has forced the community to react in its own particular ways.
