Some demoscene hardcore activitists believe a real demoparty should have more competitions, others want very specific competitions, we prefer testing the concept of competitions without voting (we call them showcases) how about a compromise? (1/2)

Have we mentioned yet that Inércia 2025 is taking place 6-7 December in Almada? And that you should show up and show us what digital art you been working on? Because we have a flyer now and friends share flyers with interested friends. Don't have any friends? Come meet some.

What is this demoscene we speak of? It's a mixed community of digital artists and vintage computer enthusiasts, making computers do things they weren't originally built to do, and having fun while at it. Here is a video we did explaining things better: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2Md...

One of our party features is having a dedicated corner of vintage and retro hardware screening some demos, where you can know more about old, learn how to repair the old one you may have in the attic and play some vintage videogames. Have something cool you want to bring aswell?

Meanwhile, in Germany, we released our invitation demo for Inércia 2025 at the wild competition of Deadline demoparty. After 25 years of more traditional invitation demos, we thought we could try a Powerpoint presentation instead. demozoo.org/productions/...

Lamentamos o falecimento do nosso associado e amigo Filipe Pina, uma referência no desenvolvimento de videojogos em Portugal, entre muitas outras coisas. Fica para a memória a participação no duelo de modelação 3d na Inércia 2005. A sua falta será sentida. www.eurogamer.pt/filipe-duart...
