Scene - Demoscene rebel.
Demoscene rebel kq/skrju/galza/[v]arga demoscene rebel Rather strange things happen in my head, when it comes to demoscene understanding. I'am talking about demoscene as a whole, not dividing it on spectrum or somewhat else, the main point remains the same. Now, I'am understanding people and core of the things much better, and can examine what is this all about at last... It should be obvious for everyone, something wrong happens here, ta- inted, no one talks about it, but hushes it up . It's like you spoil the air in an expensive restaurant and everyone keeps silence. No, I'm lying, we have something diffe- rent here, though... It seems to me, here is like in a hospital - patient is not told about cancer, or its more similar to the family, where mother is leukaemia sick, and everyone tries to be silent, not reminding about this and live the time left as good as possible, not saddening it. Of course everyo- ne is thinking about it, and thin- king very often, even while la- ughing, this theme still cracks and cries inside, maybe even screams, making the earblocks - but they are like not even noti- cing and doesn't want to see it. Pretending that there is nothing going on. I want to believe, and even frankly saying - I believe, we have no leukaemia and no aids. Its rather light mutation occurs here, gradually, or better saying we are evolving. Experiencing one phase of evolution. Becoming better, faster, gaining quality and maybe evolving in something different, but somehow or other, vector of our development is still the same. We are inevitably chan- ging and deforming, and any chan- ges are going in the same stream, same direction. Like a big highway, road, or even a lot of roads... Some are riding a bi- cycle, others on a Segway, the rest are using a metro, but they are heading in the same place. They even could be moving in diffe- rent directions, but striving to the one aim. Someone will turn to the byroad, and stay somewhere in a forest, someone will rush for- ward on the main road, and someone will open a snackbar on the road- side - but all of them, nevermind the difference, inevitably become the part of this global evolution process, everyone will play their special role in this performance. Our process, by the other side, is just a part of common human pro- cess, where Kafka with Antonioni, and Aleksandra Marinina with 'Tatoo'. This is amazing, splendid and shockingly interesting. For now, speccy has two waves: one paraziting and another -producing. Yes, it's true: the first is a ri- ver and another is a tiny stream, but at the same time, this stream is a 'live water'. The width and the depth of a river doesn't mat- ter - without this it will grow turbid, becomes covered with mire and dried out. Because the first is a parazite, it is the appro- aching of a New Age. This is pop-art. People use the remained drops of a live water. They doesn't invent - they 'overin- terpret'. They would better copy Mona Lisa dozen of times using dif- ferent colours, but there is no de- sire, no aspiration even no possi- bilities to paint something new, that is sad. Oh, I feel I came to far here, because I have a suspi- cion, that we all are just a part of a New Age, but then I'am lost in understanding my motivation to write on this theme and 'what for is anything at all'. (Refer you to the interesting article of Go- rokhov 'Who is guilty, and what he will get for this?' /www.muzprosvet.ru/, it reveals the theme of New Age, deep and full enough.) Well, I'll talk now about concrete notions, applying good focus, try- ing to show it in macroshot. Com- monly, I see the future of demosce- ne in integration with mankind's values and movements. It is obvi- ous - when you are doing a very complex fx, using assembler, you are attracting attention of a one part of people, but when you are visualising an interlace of love experiences - then you will have another audience. And what is inte- resting, inventor of this ultra complex fx will be here too! We ha- ve to move towards to this integra- tion, have to learn all regions. It is not enough to do a 3D-engine for us - we have to create con- tent, filling, and this engine will be just a mean of presenta- tion. We should have a message, for what we choose a 3D-engine to be a form, because it is not a mes- sage by itself, it is neutral and empty. And everything, you can think of, is interlacing here! Ascii, video art, demoscene - this all have the future and sense only if integrated with global things! What is a banal logotype in ascii or handsome design in a demo? It is just a label, identificator, it attracts our attention, helping to have better sells for the good. Ma- ybe someone is convenient with this, but really, this is vile and sensless. At best, it is the same mean as our 3D-engine. And yet, I'am thinking for a long time, we have a luck with speccy, with our place here. I'll try to explain now. Our little eightbit friend is a re- bel machine till it's birth, it has a genetic rebellion imprints. And this is very usefull. Our re- volt becomes more powerfull day to day, that makes me happy. We have a rebel experience, acquired in childhood, developing in us from those times. From the very begin- ning we were in opposition to the world, surrounding us. Another po- int is - the state of conflict was not so right. This happend because of lack of knowledge, because we didn't even know, that in 'out- side' world there is something more, except dumb pop and ridicu- lous press. But this means nothing, the main thing, that we grew rebels till our childhood, we have a rebellion habit! And with years, as we would change - our up- rising will remain with us, we will always know, that there is another way, there are secret ro- oms and parallel reality. And we have this rebellion desire, we are happy in rebellion. I'll say, the demoscene itself is a kind of re- volt from its start, and speccy de- moscene is a double revolt, and today- speccy demoscene is a very good revolt, strong and true. Another thing, that amazes and attracts me to demoscene - it can include quite everything, from extreme creation on absolutely wild and analloted for this machi- nes to the full - length film in a wild compo. Want we this or not, it contains those, who denies de- moscene and those who in love with it. On one server, in nearby fol- ders, here would be placed KOSMO- POLOVCI and Popsy Team, inward and Omega Haxxors Group. And I think, there is no big contradiction here. Because all those groups meet at demoparties and drink vod- ka together. Rise in rebellion my friends! 29mar2004 kqskrjugalza[v]arga
