                   eNLIGHT'97 summary


  Arriving with enlight'a 97, which was held August 23, 1997 I
I decided to write a little otchetik for those who have not 
been there. 


                          Day One:

                         -------------
  Well, the first good news - is that it is still
place. It is estimated there were about 1500 guests,
More than half of which (if not 3 / 2 (or 3 / 4)) were
sinkleristami. There were also foreign guests from the Czech 
Republic and Poland. Czechs even exhibited their DeMouy the 
competition (although, honestly speaking, it does not inspire 
the public) of our "cool" was almost all the elite, but DMS. 
The full list of probably will not be published, and incomplete 
to be published in All newspapers / magazines. Party held on 
the 4th floor of a Uni is almost in the heart of Peter, so that 
about any grass and others to dream and do not have to. True 
hall was quite roomy and everyone fit properly. It all started

within 11 hours, when the registration papers. Along with
it began to twirl the demo on Sinclair and show sounddrayv,
size 6, and Mortal Kombat 2 on some b / w kay'e. People to
time started to diverge strongly in the hall and adjacent
Territories, drink beer, meet, market, and ETC. By
time as the registration is completed, and it's time to move on 
to become demo component on the Spectrum, it became clear that 
becoming available monitor is not showing the 2 nd screen (due 
SZHGA monitors). therefore, after a couple hours of torment and 
bustle components decided carried out on the PC. Well, the PC, 
even in Africa the PC, so you can guess what was the quality of 
the demonstrations :-) About demah be special mention. Unlike 
last year when there was sharp drop in the quality of work in 
various places, this time all the demo were performed at the 
highest level, and the winner was very difficult. But by all 
accounts, took first place PROGRESS. Now music. was presented 
about 80 Mouzon, of the which showed only 15 pieces. So that 
components can Musik say never took place. With graphics fared 
no less difficult than with music. The competition bystavleno 
about 160 (!) Images, which, I must say still showed, but did 
not choose the best be identified. By the way, looking ahead to 
say that when counting of votes was found about 2 dozen cards

identical scores. so that we can not accept the results
this vote as the ultimate truth. Now on
Other platforms: AMIGA: on it was held only 4k intro
com and 64k intro compo. 4K intro was only one job in
1k, which zanyalya 1st place. at 64K was represented by 3
works, among them 2 of REST RST 7, which also took first place.
I must say that RSTshnik cool! His deme looks like a decent
AGAshny product.

  On the PC there was no contest.

  And why?

                          Second day.

                         -------------
  When utrechkom August 24 people have been going to the place
dislocation of all waited a terrible picture: a heavy iron 
chain to enlighta doors and shitty leaf, advising that enlighta

to be! Public outrage was not the limit, have been thought
Even the organizers to arrange a little thrashing, but then 
decided, and supported by the following alternative: the 
creation of fuck-demo throughout the country. That's a bummer 
waited all the next day. A motivated some vague words like 
about what you are still better be it, so type that beer 
drinking (and what is wanted? show without beer? and even in 
this heat!) In general, shit! As a result, the coordinator 
Network zxnet claimed unofficial vote count, and promised put 
the work in the inet, and fido. on inete until no (09/01/1997), 
and the fido - I do not know. In the meantime, appeared in 
time, our brave police began to ride around and play the pipe 
in the Dudu about what they say disperse For your own good, if 
not worse. That is so ignominiously, with cops and ended with 
"Festival of Computer Art eNLIGHT'97 ".


  And from himself and I urge all of Voronezh Muscovites take
reins of party-arranging their hands and show everyone how to
grandiose event.

  HEY! Alex Research!!!! Bring out the idea at a great 
sisopnicheskuyu global level!


  Isai! Where are your organizational skills? At this
enlight'e you people progruzil bad! Would undertake
information support, along with Magic Softom.

  PROGRESS!!! write promotional demos!

  Together, we can T A K E O !!!!!!!!!


      HIDDENPART OF e NLIGHT 'Sept. 7

     -------------------------------------------------- ----

  It all began ... Well, of course, with RST7. And of course,
as soon as both at once. In general, more is said, not enter 
the room, as y ALEX'A IWAMOWA 'RST 7 (or vice versa), the idea 
to arrange hidden part. Porastryasya COBR'u on a leaf of paper 
was RSTshnik record of candidates, so to speak, members of the 
informal congress of. people typed order: RST (myself do not 
write ;-), DIGITAL REALITY, PROGRESS, KSA, ISAEW, FLASH, MAGIC 
SOFT, POWER OF SOUND, virtual brothers, and of VVG. The rest I 
do not remember, but there were many more people. After the 
first day of the show people began to gather on the hidden 
part. All signed up did not come (For some reason - guess 
yourself :-), but those who came to a friendly crowd go 
somewhere on the outskirts of the city on the lake. Along the 
way were made purchases of basic necessities in undertaking

hidden parts enlight'a: a imennorusskogo national drink.
How do I proceed to tell especially not worth it, so as not to 
embarrass Some very distinguished spektrumistov, we just have 
to say that the intended purpose realtime drinking compo fell 
through because of the absence of the first candidate in the 
winners, hovering somewhere in the enlight'e with Iwamoto, 
Cobra, etc. Well, this morning had not slept and not completely 
sober people waited maalenky surprise. (Cm ^ ^ ^)


 Text packed on 2-3 September 1997, ZX-WORD'e in a wild rush
Therefore I apologize for the huge number of errors and for
debility writing style (or rather a lack thereof).
