ASCII/Text Demos
For a load of textmode demos (ya know, futurescrew-esque type demos), have a gander at
http://taat.fi/tmdc/download.html
They're for windows + run in a command window once you've dbl-clicked an exe. EnJoY -
TMDC
Let's not forget about the Text Mode Demo Compo. Certainly some nice uses for ASCII.

The demo scene is not dead yet! :P
Try Assembly.org for some details about the 'demo scene' AFAIK. Two demo sceners' sites are; Byterapers (old group) and tAAt (new group).
Its too bad you missed the ASM Party 2002 BTW. It was cool and I had almost no English speaking demo-lovers to chat with! :)
Also, the 'intro scene' was where the fun was BTW. ;) -
Mirror of some partsHere's copy-paste of some parts of the site since it probably gets slashdotted quite soon.

Mission Statement
The demo scene has almost been a stifling force against creativity. It seems to be content to operate within its own secure borders, defended by angry troops and barbed wire. Almost afraid to explore new grounds and afraid of the world outside. Anything that is different is scorned at. It's not technically challenging. It's silly. There's no *wow bang*.
Demo coders end up becoming game coders and tracker musicians become game musicians. They become anonymous. Why can we not look at the world beyond? With the fourth incarnation of the semi-legendary Alternative Party that is what we are trying to do. Trying to make sceners realize there's more to life than having simply technically superb results, with no personality, style, originality or attitude. We want people to look at new solutions -- both for their hardware and, more importantly than ever, for their productions.
Please do contact us if you have ideas how best to do this. We are always looking for comments.
I'd just like to throw an extra greet to Antti Silvast for making me realize why the Alternative Party is important again.

The Facts
What: A new kind of computer party.
When: 10th-12th January 2003.
Where: Kulttuuriareena Gloria, Helsinki, Finland.
How much: 20/25 EUR. Ticket info
Background
The last Alternative Party was the most successful event, and the most challenging event we have ever organised. It was a truly memorable weekend in many respects. The music, the contributions, the people and the unbeatable spirit. Everyone combining together to prove to the world that change can take place. We honestly believe you cannot experience anything like that at any other scene event. In January 2002 we passed the 200 mark. Can we now reach 300?
The event is organised by Alternative Party ry, a non-profit organisation, in co-operatin with tAAt ry.

Competitions
- Photography Competition
- You can submit either a JPEG or TIFF image or a paper photo (which will then be scanned by the organisers).
- Visible marks of editing and other kinds of "improving" the picture will cause the picture to be disqualified.
- The pictures will be shown on the big screen.
- Non-/disqualified Demo Competition
- You can participate with any machine or operating system - make sure that someone can show your demo or you must take your computer with you.
- Only one entry per group.
- The demo (or intro) must have been non- or disqualified at some party. You must state which party it was.
- If the demo was disqualified because of some content that is not, for some reason, suitable for showing on the big screen, it will be disqualified again.
;-)
- Short Story Competition
- You must submit a text file containing your story.
- The file may contain no more than 70 lines of text with no more than 72 characters per line.
- Character encoding should be US ASCII or ISO Latin 1.
- Any language is allowed.
- The stories will be printed and shown on the wall.
- Realtime Drawn Gfx Competition
- You have exactly 30 minutes to draw your picture and submit it to the infodesk.
- You can use a computer (and return the picture on a disk as GIF/PNG/JPEG/TIFF) or just paper (max. A4) and pens. In the latter case, the picture will be scanned in order to show it on the big screen.
- Your picture must follow a topic given just before the competition starts.
- Ludicrous Speed Gfx Competition
- You have exactly 30 seconds to draw your picture.
- You must use A4 paper and any tools you wish.
- The entries will be scanned and shown on the big screen.
- Live Vocal Music Competition
- Only vox humana (human voice) may be used - no instruments, filters, vocoders etc.
- There can be a single singer or a whole chord - we have many microphones.
- You do not necessarily have to sing, you can also make other sounds/noise with your mouth(s).
- Maximum length of your performance is 3 minutes.
- Love Music Competition
- Allowed file formats are MOD, XM, IT, S3M, MP3 and OGG.
- Maximum playtime of the song is 3 minutes.
- The song must be about love. The style is not limited, though.
- Alternative Demo Competition
- Any platform is allowed, but remember to make sure that someone at the party place has a machine that your production runs on - perhaps by bringing your own machine to the party place.
- Maximum showing time of the demo is 8 minutes.
- The demo must be somehow alternative, not ordinary.
- Black and White Video Competition
- The contribution must be delivered as MPEG video and/or VHS tape.
- Maximum showing time of the video is 5 minutes.
- Audio is of course allowed.
- Only two colors, black and white, are allowed. Shades of gray are not allowed.
- Invitation Competition
Note that the deadline is over -- this competition has been closed.
- Any platform is allowed.
- The invitation can be a demo/intro, music, video or something completely different.
- The invitation must be submitted (emailed to setok@fishpool.fi) before December 1st.
- You don't have to be present at Alternative Party to participate.
- You can submit an MPEG video to be shown and spread on the site. You can't expect to win the compo if people can't see your work!
- The invitation can (and should!) be shown at other parties and events and spread like hell. It also must be spreadable somehow...
- Feel free to use text and pictures from this site.
- The production must really be an invitation, so it must contain at least the following information in some form: Alternative Party 2003

Common Misconceptions
We keep hearing things from people about our party, or the people involved, which simply are not true. Here are some of them.
- The Alternative Party is for old computers
This has never been true, although it is by far the most common misconception we run into. So much so that it is potentially damaging. The Alternative Party has always been about doing and thinking things differently. Right from the very beginning we have allowed a wide range of computers to take part in the compos, from Vic 20s to Macintoshes. In fact we would very much like to see a modern supercomputer or UNIX workstation taking part. So just to emphasise this:
The Alternative Party is not only for old computers
- I cannot enter the party with a modern PC
This is simply not true. We do not turn anyone away because of the machine they bring with them and welcome anyone and everyone who has paid the entrance fee. Specific compos might have rules which limit the machines or technology that can be used, but they do not apply to the party on the whole.
- The compos are jokes
While some people might think that, we put a lot of serious effort into working out new ideas for compos. This is indicated by the fact that a certain large computer event has used some of the ideas for their own compos. ;-) There have been many good entries in the past and we applaud the people who have gone to the effort. We would very much like to see more people do so. A bad joke entry just is not funny.
- Alternative Party organisers hate Assembly or Assembly organisers
Not true. In fact many participate at Assembly every year. While it could be said that we do not consider Assembly to be the best party in the world --- that would naturally be our own --- we are on good terms with several Assembly organisers and would like to keep it that way.

Invitation competition and previous Altparty stuff
Entries for the invitation competition are already available, featuring intros/videos, music/posters/flyers/pictures, text files and even a feast recipe invitation!
The intros have wide variety of entries, some working on Win32, some made with Perl, a 4k intro, invitation for GBA and Vic-20 and more.
Some stuff from Alternative Party III held in January 2002 is also archived and available.
Here is a pouet-link to one demo from the party, "Partaitiö" by tAAt (Platform: 386SX, works in Win2k box with VDMsound). (tAAt ry is also helping in organizing the party this year)
Check out also pictures from the overhead projector compo called "Valoköysiviljelijä". -

Text Mode DEMOS!
Well, I guess we could do a little bit of code hacking and start using Text Mode Demos to benchmark text lines per second.
:-)
When you start benchmarking text, and people are coding ridiculous things like raytracing in text mode, you know you can't go wrong.

Re:Stickdeath link for Lazy click people =)
Here is another site, equally weird. Porrasturvat! No it is NOT a pornosite.

Check out the invitation text-mode 3d demo here; it comes with complete source code too.
Squint a bit and it looks awesome! -
Look around....
How many even slightly successful games these days are produced by single programmers or even small teams?
Are you blind?!? Some of the one-person-developed games have gathered cult-followings!
