             CHAOS CONSTRUCTIONS'2001 PARTY REPORT

Hello readers.

Discussed in this article will focus on Chaos Constructions 
demoparty: how This was what happened there, which was not, 
etc. .. 


                C ∙ C ∙ ∙ D ∙ e ∙ m ∙ o ∙ p ∙ a ∙ r ∙ t ∙ y ∙ 
∙ intro 

I went to the cinema "Sunrise" somewhere around 11.30 on August 
18. Y entry is already crowded bunch of people. Gradually come 
yet. Part of the men immediately poured into the noisy crowd on 
the porch, others (Like me) stayed on the sidelines and quietly 
watched peacefully. So I stood in a corner and began to catch 
the familiar face. This could go on forever, because I did

a person did not know:). Otlavlivanie persons badges for 
nothing too avail. One person (Organism / Eye-Q) I catch myself 
and we talked a little on the topic / IC.


By 12.00, I felt that a little drop out of the picture, and
slowly moved inside the building.

After rising for a second (or more precisely, the Bastard) 
floor, I saw door, near which were two round tables on which lay

schedule of the festival, badges and stickers from the "General"
sponsor - "Hacker".

Posozertsav these things mess, I went inside, while the benefit 
allowed without tickets. Inside were the hall (big enough) and 
white screen (not too small). After going round the hall on the 
perimeter, I stumbled upon in the corner on two computers 
(Kay-1024), with one of them sat suspiciously familiar person. 
It turned out to Sair00s, which poking around in the source 
code demos. At this time Sairoos called Paracels'a, and I 
followed where he sat. Later I moved to that direction and 
found a D-Man'a and Paracels'a, who peacefully interviewed 
Pheel'om. Acquainted with this trio (brothers Kalinins I knew 
only through correspondence, and she has just begun:) and 
sfotkav them to memory, I took a seat near the Dee Mans and 
went cool off the street. There are several people on 
pootlavlival badges and got to know them.


Returning to the hall, I bought myself beydzhik for 100 rubles,
prihvatiziroval sheets for a vote and a pen. As I
new people and do not know anybody, I stuck to Placebo.

∙ part # 1 

Somewhere around an hour of the day is finally on the scene 
painted Festival organizers, who have long and hard to explain 
how vote, what has changed in the schedule, etc., from what I 
understand, that night, the components will not, and we were 
all thrown out ... And since I do not local, and to my 
temporary accommodation during this time train there, I felt 
the joy of life:). After the scene was visited Representatives 
of "Hacker", Nemo, some more People, which is also something 
talked about. 

In the end, came on stage Unbeliever, and started the festival 
with music compo. For a start, we were given a preview track 
MMCM'a. Sound was cool, but pretty unusual (I'm used to their 
system, which smooths out the sound is not bad:). It was pretty 
interesting to see how some people immediately got up and left 
the room. Then another. And yet. Amizhniki, I thought:). I 
honestly listened to 21 tracks. What can I say about Spectrum 
music? Not bad. Some of the tracks were really awesome, but it 
was also sucks. However, I did not even guessing about who

take first place, but simply put in a sheet as I
liked it.

After you have gfx compo, 512b intro, 4k intro ...

Graphics: start with the fact that the work was 49 ... Over some
laughing, some works just yelled and whistled with delight.
Indeed, the level of work was high. There were, of course, work
are unclear as were preselekt. Although "Decl" was
height:). Another remembered a screen like "Bjork". As later
it turned out it was the work of Diver'a. Hall just howled when
They stared at the screen with such a face! And, of course,
were at the height of Paracels'a, Pheel'a, Gas'a and ZSV.

512b intro: here I do not remember almost anything. Either way
were poor, whether in the 512 bytes can not just do stuff
interesting.

4k intro: We started with a display component GOA4k. After her 
very first work aroused indignation. But by the end people 
warmed up again, yeah and intro came with a soundtrack:). The 
content of one of intro led some to ask "the moral and ethical

Comrade considerations. MMA, however, showed the intro to the 
end. Then there were minor difficulties with the launch of the 
latest intro. When it started, it appeared that not in vain 
lost time. I remember after the components to break stumbled on 
a happy JtN'a of 4D, which inquired whether he will give the 
first place, for the latest intro ... However, I myself would 
appreciate it though and not at first, but in second place.


Yes, even between two components on the scene jumped out a girl 
and clumsy Russian explained that she and sister Random'a now

will be given diplomas with CC'00. Further, it is also 
beginning to dictate Winners of last year's demopati than 
aroused a storm discontent in the audience, since its a Russian 
personal it was impossible to understand:).


And it was game-compo. Three works, plus one out of the 
competition. First I liked (out of three competition) more than 
anyone else. Although up to PTs'shnogo original it away. 
Arcanoid author too long plagued with a view to demonstrate 
artificial intelligence, forgetting that the components of 
something - a game:). Farspace - unpretentious such GABA 
monotonous hurt. Well, Dizzy. I generally like Dizzy-shaped 
game, so ... 

At the end of all these components Spectrum came on stage MMA
and offered a choice of "3 demos now, or 4 demos a bit later,"
because Placebo are about to finish his creation. People
unanimously chose four demos later. And as time has
was decided to hold a PC / Amiga Multichannel music compo, which
divided into Alternative and Traditional.

I skorenko dumped on the street, where, hang out a bit, saw
Comrade suitable. Mednonogova, which is immediately surrounded 
by a crowd people. All questions addressed Mednonogovu, he 
replied, coded "I stayed alive." It later emerged that this 
genius koderskoy thought hit by a bus ... Unhappy bus got on

According Mednonogova, deep dents, while he himself
injured in the accident escaped with slight shock and dirty 
trousers. 

All this time (ie from the beginning of the festival, and even 
before him, and for most Multichannel music compo) in the 
corner sat angry:) Sair00s and tried riveted anything 
demopodobnoe, occasionally distracting to swallow anything 
liquid or smoke. Around him on the breaks there was a group of 
support including: Pheel, Screamer, Paracels, D-Man, and 
Stanly. A wandering around Elf / CPU and Cusick / Sinclair Club 
hoping to take someone's interview. Work Sairoos'a moved to the 
end ... 

But that's over multichannel music compo, and the scene again
left Unbeliever, asking him whether people 4 demo now, or 5
demo tomorrow, they say "Extreme overnight to make a demo:). 
Thus demokompo was postponed to 11.00 on August 19, and the 
first day / IC declared closed.



             C ∙ C ∙ ∙ D ∙ e ∙ m ∙ o ∙ p ∙ a ∙ r ∙ t ∙ y ∙ ∙ 
middle-party 

The problem with non-resident overnight just decided: the night 
can be held in the hall and in the morning, when the hall will 
be occupied by certain sects believers:), a little hang out on 
the street. 

Many people stayed the night in the hall. Wandered around, 
drank beer communicate. Screamer podfiksil their demo. At the 
component car sat at the work of Eye-Q, intending "to finish" 
DeMouy. On your favorite (already) place sat a maniac Sair00s, 
hoping to squeeze out the source of available time is the 
maximum possible, which was very difficult because Kay vis 
shamelessly for any reason, and without reason, too. And since 
the 3.5 "floppy drive was one on Kae, for which sat Sairoos, 
then people copied GABA on nearby comp - also Kay'e, who drive 
to work only after contact with a sledgehammer. Those who have 
not brought with them pyatidyuymovok violently break off. And 
I'm with them. 

Nearby someone was playing the piano than brutally took out all
accumulated in the corner near Sairoos'a. Then it is a disgrace
stopped and the silence of the night began to interrupt Megus 
with a guitar but it was not so badly:).


On the stage sat someone terribly drunk and Unbeliever (also 
not the top sobriety). And the MMA for a long time that 
something rubbed poor kid, finished his tirade by saying: 
"Here's a scene here and sit on the it "(Do not quote !:)))


Somewhere about three o'clock in the night, when most of the 
remaining had dreams, I decided, too little sleep, has found a 
free spot get comfortable and wake up at 5-something. A little 
later ofonarevshy of happiness Sairoos, wandering in circles, 
went to earned rest after many hours of realtime-coding. On

freed Kay'e I rewrote his second chart, with a floppy disk
which gave the D-Man.

And then we were kicked out of the hall into the street. It was 
already quite light, and we are realizing a small gruppochku 
(D-Man, Paracels, Sairoos, Pheel and I) went to the nearest 
yard, to the bench. Here here I want to terminate your account 
and warmly thank Sairoos'a, has kindly provided me his sweater, 
because at such holodryge I would not last long. THANK YOU, 
SAIR00S! 

After sitting for a bit, we decided to go in search of something
edible, and preferably hot. But everything was closed,
therefore, all our searches have become a jaunt to Finland
Bay have joined with us Screamer'om, Stingrey'em
and someone else (can not remember: (). On the way from us 
disconnected Paracels and Pheel, reasonably have decided that 
we will sooner or later equally true:).


We got to the bridge over a canal (about five meters in
width), where Sairoos saw ducks and decided to catch one on your
breakfast:). The tricks he pulled out of the bag stub loaf
and began to throw pieces thereof into the water, attracting 
the attention of stupid birds. In the end he succeeded, but 
then he realized that a duck with the bridge - lesson, useless 
for their can not:). As a result, he began to throw pieces of 
stick in the hope kill one of them the bird, but she deftly 
dodges, eating these shells. When the bird is sated, and swam 
away, Sairoos made one last attempt, after running the 
remainder of the stick. But the mischievous bird is not even 
turned around:). 

We slowly moved back to the cinema. There I left
his companions and went to the shop opened Zatar
something to eat. Having been hangouts everywhere, anywhere.

Time is slowly approaching the top of the opening ...

But before that happened and the battle between Sairoos'om 
Vivid'om by about how the withdrawal effects on the screen and 
features realize realtime effects in multicolor. In the end, 
all agreed First look at demos of the Titans demomeykinga, and 
then decide which is better - chunks or multicolor.



                   C ∙ C ∙ ∙ D ∙ e ∙ m ∙ o ∙ p ∙ a ∙ r ∙ t ∙ 
y ∙ ∙ part # 2 

Finally, by 12 o'clock fellow believers to vacate the premises 
and we took their places.


And it's a demo component.

The first showed a demo of the Volga Soft. People immediately 
dragged from long-forgotten vector graphics, but in the end saw 
the demos anime led again to inquire about a Unbeliever'a

moral and ethical considerations.

Then followed by deme Screamer'a: "jaundice". Not a bad deme,
albeit a small one. And yet the people did not understand 
Chinese (or in Japanese?).


The third was a deme of Eye-Q. All kind deme has made it clear
that it did not "finish" at night, and continued to barely begun
work. Sorry, Organism, but it's not DeMouy pulls.

Fourth deme - from Placebo. It showed in the turbo mode and
warned that this is NOT the final version of the demos. 
Nevertheless, it was just awesome. Graphics Paracels'a, lots of 
effects steep Mouzon. And although the order of chunks really 
bored (Sair00s: I myself bored with chunks, but there is simply 
no alternative.) deme well deserved first place.


Well, finally, deme "Stellar Contour" from BrainWave. Too 
rulnaya deme. Design of a again. Graphics Pheel'a - just super!

Cool soundtrack. So the passions pledged to achieve
few hundred kilovolts.

However, after the trial components on the porch and Vivid 
Sairoos continued dispute, which resulted in a statement 
Vivid'a that following DeMouy he would write in chunks and 
Sairoos'a statement that he should also be DeMouy write a 
chunk:). As for the dispute chunks vs multicolor, the opinion 
prevailed D-Man'a as saying that is both good only for its 
effects, and in order and There are designers to decide what 
effect a display. A standing beside him Unbeliever and shouted 
that "deme of BrainWave sucks!" (Even at home, when we all 
structure Stall reviewed demos, we decided that the 3D shapes 
in multicolor not look absolutely way, as well as fractals in a 
chunk, so: D-Man - you right!).


And at this time there were components in the PC / Amiga. 
However, since reporting written for spektrumistov, then I'll 
just write about Spectrum components. People hanging out, 
someone voted for PC / Amiga, all waiting for Wild compo, which 
is still demonstrated, albeit without a vote. During the PC / 
Amiga compo Justinas results of the vote counted, and went 
looking for MMA Soundliner'a seems to also bring him to count.


At this time, people have successfully copied the components 
work well "Stolen" by the organizers.


But here's all the work displayed, diplomas PC / Amiga, comes
Justinas and hands Unbeliever'u paper with the results of demo, 
4k intro and graphics. Handed diplomas. Since the light is 
somehow not included, the presentation took place under the 
spotlight and strobe. This, of course, greatly affected the 
quality of Photos: (.


But certificates issued, and all begin to diverge. I moved to
output along with Placebo, hoping with them by metro
and on the station. But they are waiting for MMA. These 
approaches Wlodek Black and requests Paracels'a give him 
details of their demos, saying that he "Need only Placebo". And 
my time is running out, so I stick to the CPU, and with them 
going to the station, where we say goodbye and I leaving in 
Kolpino because my stay is not Pervouralsk completed.


But that's another story ...


                C ∙ C ∙ ∙ D ∙ e ∙ m ∙ o ∙ p ∙ a ∙ r ∙ t ∙ y ∙ 
∙ outro 

So, summarizing demopati Chaos Constructions 2001, I
say that the main aim of the event - contact - has been
achieved. I have nothing to compare this festival, but with my
point of view, it was a success. The organization was at a 
decent level. As for cons organizations - have been 
significantly affected the organization of the counting of 
votes, ie on the ground were counted votes are not all the 
components. Neponyatki system voting also occurred. Promised 
because poballnuyu system vote, but it turned out the charts 
for five seats on the component. 

In general, I'm terribly pleased TSTS'1 and I hatched plans to 
drive on demopati next year, which is what you, dear reader, I 
wish. 

In conclusion, I want to say that because I had not planned to 
write detailed report, and passed a long time, here I could

prevent some errors. And please excuse me if this is
happened.

Bye.
