Report on trip to chaos
Constructions 2006

Once a reservation - I do not sceners!
And the SS in 2006 was the first party
in my life, which
I attended. So please
sorry to be
lamerskie comments
and excessive emotionality ...
Unfortunately, I can
well just tell
about 1 day of the festival, so
on the second visit did not
failed. So, let's begin.

Closer to the 20 th of August
it became clear that to ensure
weighty Belarus
representation / IC 2006
unfortunately not succeed. Thus,
for various reasons
could not go to X-Factor
of Pruzhany, Equator from Minsk
SpeccyFan of Polotsk, and of course
same Fatalsnipe. Total
The Belarusian (or rather
- Minsk) crowd at the
/ IC were I, Spectre
and eXecutor (spektrumistam
with the experience known as Alex
Nikiforov). The latter
hanging out in St. Petersburg with 18
August. I was going to
to stay with his good
other, and Andrew and his wife -
with relatives.

Both Andrew visited the 24 th
numbers, and so there were
the fact that we
First I had to go
train Minsk - Peter
to Vitebsk, and there
change to train
Brest-Peter. Straight ticket
was not, but obratnokak just the opposite.

August 24 (departure day)
I popped in the morning at work,
reported on a business trip
(Before I came back from
Gomel), then changed
money, bought drugana,
who was going to spend the night
in St. Petersburg three battles vodka
Minsk production (in his
personal request), collected a bag
and in 10/17 was on the Railroad
station, where the Spectre of
Mrs. Anna I already
waiting. The first thing I learned
- What of Peter I
back to the proud
Alone - Andrew
agreed to work
for compensatory time off and bought a ticket already for
environment. Could not as they say
had to say - I would then x
happy to hang out
in St. Petersburg a couple of extra days
:) Ride on a train without a beer
- His worst ((c) mine), so
We left Anya at the guard
bags and themselves down
in that we know a miracle - Bartschik.
And then we waited bummer - from 17-00
the day the beer is not sold,
but all his fault was a
it's football! Attempts to promote a
barmaid success not
crowned, although we were
to close). As a result,
had zatarivatsya
mineralochkoy and marshmallows (
a cup of tea in the train).

Thinking that the train we
more luck, we moved
to the composition. Naturally our
the car was at the far end
platforms, more car-
turned out to be Russian
formation. Well top
all, our seats were in the end
car - near the door to the toilet!
But is could this have we
dampen the mood?

Neighbor to the reserved seat
was simpotnaya girl
(As it turned out,
her name was Julia (unfortunately,
when we learned that she was still
Schoolgirl, interest in it
I have several pougas
:) The train started and the question
find a beer has become more
urgent than it was before.
That is why we went with Andrew
to fish. And in our
Russian beer wagon
was not! We went
to the hospitable Belarusian,
deciding to visit also car
- Restaurant - look for that
a miracle is. We stumbled on
him when passed around
6 cars - though left there
quickly enough - seeing
what sort of price ... In the next
with our car we bought
beer and anchovies, and returned
to our seats. Family
Bogdanovich was whether early
dinner, or late lunch
and in this case they were
oblige me =) Soon
company split into
2 parts - Julia talked to Anya
and we discussed with the Spectre
global issues
Belarusian, Russian
and global Spectrum
- Scene. I told him about
the trip to Gomel
and Andrew shared with me
exclusive secret Cheat
Mode in Clickmania. Our peaceful
conversation was interrupted by a voice
Ani, who, pointing to us
finger began to explain to Julia,
what spektrumisty why
we express ourselves strange
words and explain (and,
oddly enough, rather
exactly) what pointovka:)
I've been in touch ...

Vitebsk greeted us with a small
rain. Poglazev the station
outside (Spectre found it
very similar to Brest)
we met with him
innards. As a result,
all that we have changed the bucks
bought another beer and a snack.
There was nothing special
and an hour we frankly
bored shlyayas on station
back - forward and then ate Fishing
over the views of local
guardians of order.

The train Brest - Peter seats
we again proved to be
at the end of the car. First thing
We divided the one who at any
shelf will go to sleep - I
naturally inherited the upper,
Yes, in principle, I was
the drum. Deciding that came
hour for the 2 nd pivopogloscheniya,
We actually have this
to deal with. Soon Ann
Lagle sleep, but we Andrei
persistently mop up
poltorachku.

The train was stuffy - well
I guess to take a
tights and T-shirt - and change.
Finishing his beer, I glanced at the Mobil
- SMS roaming worked fine
- I saw that we are already in Russia
and crawled to bed.

Sleep nevazhnetski as
then snatches. Times 2, I slazit
from the shelf and to lean on
mineralochku - sushnyachok after
Beer began to make itself
know. At 7 am Moscow time
I finally realized that not
need to torment yourself - sleep
no longer be able to and decided
to these remaining 2.5
hours somehow different.
Quoting himself in order
smoke in disguise, I became
look out the window. Soon
the car has to wake up in the
those are my friends -
companions. After we again
bite and began to chatter
and look out the window.

And so began a neighborhood
Peter, and soon he
Peter seemed handsome.
Vidon from the window was just
drop dead. 9-40 In our train
stopped at the Vitebsk
station. Andrew and Anya went
to the output of the first - for
would not stay long
waiting for them relative
I'm also not in a hurry. I
also met a girl friend
Katia and we left with her
on their habitats -
in the suburb of Pushkin, Peter.

Buying a ticket, I got
The first Russian experience
- I was given a partial surrender
metal ruble ...
Since Soviet times and I've already forgotten
what happens:)

Half-hour ride in the train,
walk peshochkom on Pushkin
and finally did I was able to blissfully
stretch out in the armchair
- I was at home with friends.
16 hour trip "there"
finished ...

Taking a shower, eat, I lost
any desire to go to Peter
- Even more so to see me
There was no one, and one was
in baaalshuyu bastard. Therefore,
we have to Cathay to watch
movies, drink beer, I played
on their computer (it is a pity
Ineta that there was not).
Spectre is a gift of time
lost - wrote me sms
that he pull up on MegaFon
acquainted with the city.

In the region of 7 pm came Jura
with my boyfriend and we were
thump and talk about life.
We have not seen for two years
He wanted to know everything about everyone,
I tried the best of my knowledge
it prosvyatit. That was after
3 bottles - I remember not too
clearly - wandered through the park,
bathed in what - a pond,
just cops we have not
raked, and then another long
could not find my way home:)


In the morning the head was slightly
square, but no one / IC
not canceled and had to go.
Got a sms from Spectre,
in which he reported that
We meet in the 11-00
metro station Forest. Knowing
that Slava Kalinin live somewhere
near the Moscow metro
(Namely, it went
minibus from Pushkin), I decided
call him and impose
in the company / IC (my experience
orientation in unfamiliar
cities certainly a good thing
but none of the Belarusian city
Peter does not compare).
But Slava said that when xs
He climbs to the party ticket
he did not need, so
I have broken off.

I had to go himself. Well
Well, collect CDs, promised
Ksor and other comrades, I
escorted to the bus, her
I reaches the station
Moscow. Walk inside without
problems, gave me the benefit of Jura
his travel:)
Doooooollllggo going on
ekskalatore down (compared
with Minsk Metro), stumble
the circuit lines. Carefully
study it, I realized that I
must reach
"Institute of Technology,
then take on another
line and go to the "Forest".
Trains on the subway took me
broken half an hour. Leaving the place
with a delay of 15 minutes, I do not
found on the platform one.
Deciding that I did not
waited, decided to get out
to the surface and the top
noticed eXecutor'a, peacefully
conversing with what that person
explicitly computing
nationality:) Spectre
could not see around.
Well, come,
welcome, Sasha introduces
I was with his friend
- It was ex-spektrumist
from Estonia - HSC. Learning that
I am now - Virtual Webmaster
TR-DOS, HSC expressed to me
Respect - it was very
nice ...


A little later came out of the subway
Spectre - as it turned out,
he was sober slightly
zaplutal:) Really -
in St. Petersburg if the first time, without
bottle, well, or at
As if not with a hangover - it is not
will deal.

Around hodilo set
geek and a vector
their movement was one. We then
are moved to "Eurasia," she
was a 5 minute walk.
Courtyard in front was
filled with people tusuyuschimsya
Have had a beer in hand,
despite the ban
organizers promised
gatekeeping.

The first I heard Vinny - for
specifically studied his photos
- He had to give me
special sound card
Amiga for volton'a. HSC
as it turned out was amizhnikom
and began to fraternize with Vinnie. I
presented and received
promise that card to me
will give - but later,
directly at the festival.

Deciding that the best ahead of time to take
tickets, we went to the door.
And here I was someone called.
Turning, I saw
Smiling Sasha Shushkova.
Well then I could not help
smile, and we greeted each other as
best friends - even though live
seen each other for the first time.
I immediately introduced him to
Spectre - Sasha before
Festival mentioned that
would like to chat with him
on the ideal commander
:)


For Sasha, as for me, it
was the first party.
Exchanging a couple of words,
We have agreed more
extensively to communicate
inside, I handed him the promised
1910 DVD - shny archive and we are
dispersed.

Taking the survey participants, becoming
in turn and unleash some
the good girl on crustaceans,
we communicate with each other
and looking at those around us
people. So far, no one
visually identify
I could not.

Soon we are allowed inside,
I bought a ticket randomized
(Incidentally giving it fatsk
by Brisa), received a notebook for
vote and all of us
stuck on the wrist ribbons
- Pass. At the entrance to the hall
We poshmonali guards ..

Patipleys enough
ample, the people were a lot,
almost all the seats were
busy. It was stuffy, the people
hanging around there - here, and we
and did not know where we want to do with himself.
Decided to bypass the room on the perimeter
- And saw an exhibition of retro
- Comp.

Then 2 meters away from me
turned into a man and
I learned Roman Chuunin. Immediately
went up and said hello,
described himself and the Spectre, and we
again began to talk. Roma
led us to the child Atm
Turbo 2 +, we have seen new
game from Alco - Ball Quest
(Which then took place 2
in the game compo), video
(Later shown in the Wild)
and I was filled with respect to this
Spectrum clone and to group
NedoPC. Stood side by side
Pentagon 1024 SL - 2 version
board, only so far
working copy. Poglazeli
We are also at Macy's and other
computers. The only pity is that not
worked for Commodore C64
- The machine, on which
demoscene was born.

In the street a breath of fresh
air in the doorway, we saw
Wlodek'a, and on the street Spectre
saw the CPU. Cyberpunks
sat at a table directly
Opposite the entrance, drinking beer
and eating sausage. Spectre, personally
familiar with them, presented
I first Alff'u, Elfh'u
and then went and pleasant
young man, neatly
unlike other clothed
- It was Kurles. Also near
hung Miguel (with a healthy
headlight eye) and sorry for that
was not the legendary Chasm'a.


Moving away from the CPU, we have again
inspected on both sides.
And we saw it ... God: Glory
Mednonogova!


After waiting a moment when the next
with no one there, we
marveling at his audacity,
approached him, shook hands,
expressed his deepest
respect and even sfotkalis
with them! This was probably the most
memorable moment of the trip.
Sine me still envies
:) There was another joke - Mednonogov
standing next to some sort of
sceners old, and when
Spectre said that CPU'shnikam
Now, they say, the man who
now supports VT - Rear
turned around and started yelling
- Where Paul Pavlov and pulling
bottle from his pocket:) Looks
people have not heard of
and thought that he came himself
Paul. All of them eventually
proved to be his old
drinking buddies, they have a lot of
upset that Pasha
has not arrived and I was so
no Buch:)


For some time we talked
with the CPU, or rather talked
mainly Spectre,
Elf talking about version 4
Quick Commander'a, then
back in zone retrokompov.
Almost immediately came
newart and I gave him the promised
CD with VT. Appeared Axor - they
managed together with SAM style
take place and we decided to
come closer to them. So
an acquaintance with one
of the best coders. SAM style
was a modest guy
and probably even felt
a little out of his
plate. Both Alexander sat
directly across the zone
organizers and we reshli
make a couple of shots.
Approached Wlodek, we
asked his
health, and I gave
him to drive to the site.
Porassprosiv, when the
New Nicron - I got the answer
it certainly will
but obviously after / IC:) And then
Vladimir decided to Nikrona
shoot 'guests from Belarus "
his film fotikom.
Seeing this, the shot got
s1mon/CPU, and then became
discuss with Vladimir that
digicam has a sax
film is rulez.

To tell the truth - in this
moment, I had little interest in
what is happening on stage.
Tenders went on PC and I
looking for a while, I realized that
they go a long delay.
Pause between the competition were
quite improper
the time during which
people had to grow blunt
the screen with the logo of the festival.
Periodically to Sasha came
Passage to buy well-known and not
very spektrumisty even Sasha
managed to distribute posters
"Passage" and "Your Game" by
entrance doors at the entrance to the hall,
retrokompov in the area. AND
You know, I have noticed with some
interest they were treated
visitors.

Another outing on a smoke break
gave us another fotoulov
and friends - on the porch
smoked Vega and fk0 (Frolov
Cyril). It was immediately clear that
they hang burden
Organizers - Vlad and Cyril
looked as though he had not slept
day 5. Vega explained to us
reason for the delay contests
by ZX, said that all the realtime
probably will be moved
for tomorrow. Cyril managed
sfotkat, but Vega is very
quickly washed away. But do not worry - we
saw himself KANO, in
constant blue jacket.
Andrew did not miss the opportunity to him
sfotkatsya and remind him
as a drunken man ran naked
Uruchevskom in the forest
Millennium. And his story
heard many standing around,
rather than just Kano:-D


Back in the room, we again
approached fk0 and Cyril issued
us 2 badges. On them, we proudly
written by - who we are and what we do.
We waited patiently for the first
ZX - the competition (schedule), but as
appeared before it was even
far ... Spectre naschelkal pile
pictures, and since memory was
already clogged - went to look for
who would have would be to merge
them on a computer. Poryskav the hall,
he found in the center Lvd
and diver'a with laptops
and utyanuv for a SAM style,
moved there. There they
began to arrange a presentation
new products - Viking Quest
Quick Commander 3 and 4 beta.
We sat with axor,
have reflected how best to do
conceived by us to an article
Paragraph, Sasha periodically
depart, and I guarded all
our things and then seeing
a large concentration
spektrumistov in the center,
also decided to relocate
dislocation.

Central spekovskaya tusovka
sitting in the middle of the hall directly
front of the screen. Besides the already
mentioned Ivd and diver'a
were seen - ra_id, ZS,
Rion, jtn, newart, MmcM,
Cusick. Occasionally approached
CHRV and the King of Evil (Alex
Zhabin, author fees Pentagon
1024) / In the first series and on
sex sat cyberpunk. Where
- Then wandered n1k-o, but we
seen only in the evening.

It was quite fun
and interesting. Diver led directly
report on irc at # z80 and # cc6,
we communicated with each other
on different topics, and occasionally even
voted for what
shown on the screen. Was
already polpyatogo and ZX - Graphics
still could not started. I have it
waited patiently, and even
refused to go with Spectre
(And then with Cusick)
dine. After waiting for a convenient
moment, I Rushed in Maghazi
Zatar and it rolls,
phantom and glazed
cheeses. All of this was
utreskano on patipleys
together with SAM style
efforts. By the way, as
Strangely enough - I never could
found in the vicinity liter
phantom - it was necessary to give Vinny
for the sampler.

And yet it happened so
that the first 4 pictures
I miss L. Case that
I have quite a long time
heard the urge to go
to push, but kept. And, as
should be the law of meanness,
as soon as I have already hampered
could not and Rushed to the cherished
place soon announced zx
- Graphics. I was of course
upset, but the work was
14 pieces, so that another 10
I looked. Even managed to learn
the style of Surfin bird'a,
Diver'a, Rion'a and Moran'a.


But the work of Slava Kalinin
did not recognize anyone ...

After the first ZX - Competition
Time ran faster. Already
accurately and can not remember all
in the little things that happened.
Nevertheless ...

Paragraphs, I want to tell you, go
to cheer. That many
contributed to Cusick, who
fucking, with a soul, not
ashamed ardent pisyuchnikov
in the hall, advertised
publication from the scene. Almost
immediately went over what that
woman and ordered already
2 sets of numbers.
Remembered well and what
a familiar cyberpunk
- Who has long expressed Sasha
Respect for what he does,
but he was such a
obdubashenny voice that
What little we understood:) Well
and the process of acquiring Subpoints
Vyacheslav Mednonogovym was
immediately captured in the photo.

In one of the intervals between
contests room specifically
amused cyberpunk
especially s1mon, which
arranged on the main screen
"Theatre of Shadows". S1mon so
carried away that he had
drive away.

I kicked and Spectre Ivd with his
places, boldly seized his
laptop and vylozhli 'Net
first photos from the festival,
naturally on
http://zxby.org. I notified the
about Misha Brom'a
through sms and soon
received a reply from him, meaning
which can be sent
with the words "I envy you"
:)

We watched a demo with the last
Assembly, with 1 seat
not shown, along with all
but after the break, triggering
dissatisfaction with the audience.
Competition was invitatsy,
which included work
Vega - and it showed not all,
What caused the whistle zx -
visitors, although the majority
I'm sure. Have seen it before.

The competition hall Wild PROPER
working with known hero
Multi - duck, where it is
the sound of a certain transfer
Panorama Launches
the direction of America a bunch of missiles
with nuclear warheads.
In this competition was also clip
group, which plays a
Slip / Action (which was also
at the festival, but to see me
it did not work), and
showing videos to Atm
Turbo 2 +. Most of the rooms
and had no idea that these
Work will not be shown
pisi on, but just then the
Spectrum, albeit at
advanced clones.
Heard cries of "Rubbish"
"Relizhennaya work, but worth it
orgam announce from the stage that
This video on the Spectrum
- Screams "Rulez!"


There was also a contest of games where
exhibited Ball Quest
(Took a respectable second
place!) were 2 toys on the PC
from Mayhem'ov and play on
same Slip'a - continued
implementation of the famous "Empire"
on the PC.

As imperceptibly from our
hangouts disappeared SAM style
- No one has seen much
He disappeared and more than he
patipleys not returned. Chair,
on which he sat soon
occupied what is drunk
amizhnik and fell asleep on it.

Regular cigarette break on the street
led me to get acquainted with the DJ
I-Kick. Basil was already
noticeably drunk, soon it
nearly kicked out of the room.
Began to gradually darken
in the hall began to appear more
and more availability.
In the early 12 th left Spectre,
I finally decided
remain patipleys
at night. Before leaving, Andrew
we have 2 more times throwing pictures
from the festival in the 'Net.

Closer to 12 at night, seeing that
Ivd away from the laptop, I decided
check the mail and found
on vtrdos # tut.by Info Guide
9 of Alone Coder'a!
Promptly notify the
posed Spectrum
public, and diver
reported on # z80. Steel
do the proposals put
it on scenergy, which
I could not allow. Therefore,
I began to update the site directly
to the party. And after what some 20
minutes of the magazine can be download
for everyone ...

And so began a long-awaited
contest demo. Works were only
3, and two of them from the CPU.
If The Miracle of You me
not inserted, the CPU Ducks You
looked stylish, but
Jumping elfh provoked a storm
applause in the hall. Work
from the 4d + tbk was clearly
unfinished and I could not
make of it what
that whole experience.

Soon took over demami
music competitions AY
and Turbo-AY. Author of "yuya
got nkue "I've learned - it was
Seated in front of me n1k-o.
I shared my
considerations with Cusick,
he did not believe me and
repeated, in Oleg -
Is it his
work. The answer was
yes:) Also, I have no
problems guessing melody
karbofos'a in Turbo-AY components,
and wondered why it
work was not in the usual
music. Only for the return
I learned about the unfair
preselekte.

Here and ended the first day
festival, with nearly 3 hours
delay. People began
disperse in all directions,
but much
stayed overnight in the room.
I went back to the zone
retrokompov, talking
with Axor'om and his wife,
and presented them as
several small souvenir
Belarusian money. Soon
Shushkova family together
with Wlodek'om booted
in someone's Mercedes and drove away.
I talked a little bit
with Cusick on life, truth
He quickly decided to go to bed
as soon as received from the Black
Fox'a diskette with lust
BGE (Sasha half-walked,
looking for 2 - version BGE
- That would participate
in realtime gfx compo -
and by the way he took it
1 place:). Soon gone Ivd,
CHRV. It was getting boring.
In a corner of the room I noticed
small group spektrumistov
- ZS, Kurles, MmcM, CPU),
and decided to go for a smoke,
and then join them.
On the street, I exchanged
a couple of words with n1k-o,
smoked a cigarette, walked a little
and when he returned to the hall
- Parties had disappeared.

And then I noticed that the zone
orgov entered newart and decided
go there. Here I have
and the idea has matured - to try to
Vega unleash the soft,
available to him. Vega
invited us to rialtaym zone
and began to show a rich
the contents of the hard drive of his
Spectrum. They began
remember the words glory days
ZX-Net'a, found some
then a newspaper - but the question
"What should that b is all horrible
on the Virtual TR-DOS "response
had not been received.:) And soon
Vlad drove us out of the zone
realtime compo.

We Slava went to the street
fresh air
talked about - about this ..
Night Peter looked
fascinating ...

Back in the hall, fame again
disappeared in the area of ​​the organizers,
I also realized that I still
hour and a half have what it yourself
take and decided to try
peredremat. Located
3 chairs, I really
was able to doze off. I woke up
to 6-30, Subway has hodilo,
wanted to say goodbye
newart'om and Vega, but they are nowhere
was not visible. Well, goodbye
/ IC - the second day to go already
special sense was not ...

After passing the subway to
"Moscow" I decided a little
wander through the area. Wandered,
then bought himself a beer
and sat in what that little square.
Well, then sat on the minibus
and 40 minutes later was knocking
Friends of the window.

As soon as I entered, I immediately
also peppered with questions like
everything went, I felt
terrible desire to sleep
and saying that woke me up b
2 hours, fell asleep.

Getting up around 11 am I gave
myself up, took a shower,
and we began with Yuri again thump
- Already for the departure. Sentencing
Battle - we saw that it was time
would be nominated, otherwise there is
real chance of nowhere to me
do not leave:) marched
- Throw to the station, then
on the train, we arrived
on the Admiralty for
25 minutes before departure
train.

I bought a beer for the road,
Three pizzas and a little book to read.
We stood a little more
on the platform, Yura took with me
promise to be sure to visit
it again as the thread and
for a longer time, and because
conductor has already offered me
take their place, we
I said goodbye and climbed into the car.

The trip from St. Petersburg to Minsk
passed surprisingly quickly.
I first have to just sit, drink
beer and pochityval detektivchik.
At 6 pm on Russia, I lay down
sleep.

I have since cut their specific,
I woke up at 11 pm,
a bite and a smoke and lay down
to sleep on. I woke up already
a half-hour drive to the Minsk.
While dressed, yet passed the bed
- We have already moved to Minsk. On
station I took a taxi and drove
home. Ahead was a hard
working week ... But sleep
I could not. I immediately climbed
'Net where they were already the first
results and work with the parties.

It is a pity of course that neither I
nor Spectre failed to attend
2 day festival and see
rewarding. Nevertheless,
had accumulated lots of experience.
Communicating with spektrumistami
live, a lot purchased
friends, and just
the presence and view demos
live - incredible. Were
certainly flaws in the organization
- As I mentioned
- The pause between the competition were
obscenely large (and their
do not bother what - what
fill only a Random
once tried to cheer Hall
playing the lottery), the most
Interest ZX - Tenders have been
pushed to the end of the day, in the hall
It was stuffy, free entry
for those who bring with them
Laptops and Freestuff Inet also
resulted in the fact that in the hall
sat Tuyev hucha frankly
left to the people who have been
apsolyutno spit on all that
occurred around - freebie
She and Africa freebie. They
even porn tossed, what is
svidetelsvo, and particularly
not hiding. Despite all
assurances that the party
will be non - stop, and at night
will play the movie of the past
festivals and demos, nothing
it was not - on the contrary,
Turn off the projector at high
screen. But let's say -
negative emotions could not
displace the positive!
