Head on over to their ftp and download the latest marvels from Helsinki's massive annual programming and digital art/music competition. Wired also has a couple articles on the subject here(1), here(2) and here(3)."

    Um, somehow I can't see coding blitter routines in assembly while getting drunk as being very... um, practical. Hic... hic, we @ m$ always have a few jack d's before coding our security routines hic, never caused a problem :)

    Isn't it just a tad ironic that these people can do things with amigas and peecees that no sane person would ever require of them, but can't make a web page that validates

    Of course you only had to go 500m to Boozembly which would supply decent quantities of alcohol + sceners.

    As 5,000 kids gathering in Finland on Thursday will attest, the European demo scene is alive and kicking.

    Only 5,000? That's a little small for a convention...

    There's no alcohol and few girls.

    Oh, I see why...
