That demo really kick my butt ! It's my favourite from Sunflower.
It's a really beautifull digital trip, and the music is soooooooooooo cool :)

Another very, very nice one from Sunflower. Great visuals and nice music. A favourite!
Link seems broken, is it?

Yeah some serious effects! nice and kewl.
totally wicked.

a very sunflowerish sunflower demo 8) lots of layers, lots of lights, lots of coolness. the tune is breathtaking.
simply rocks, the mood is overcool, the music is soooo good, launch tesla, sit well on your armchair, lights off, headphones, and enjoy ...
Sunflower's best, in my opinion. An audiovisual masterpiece, everything fits together perfectly; the soundtrack by radix and lluvia, the graphics by saffron and yoghurt's code.
Wasn't too big on it at first, but after watching it in a demo set following Chrome/Damage and Volatile/Addict, I was smitten. So for best results, mix it in with some other layered, non-hardcore demos. Good music too, of course.
hmmm... seem like I forgot the "rulez" in the last comment.... a shame, 'cause this is truly a rocking demo...
totally amazing! =)
i only started to like it after i watched tesla several times. i still don't quite like the music in some parts, which is the only drawback i can find. rest is perfect sunflowerstyle.
possibly my favourite demo of all time! next is fishtro of course :)
this is great sunflower stuff... but i still like zilog more.
(Spectreman told me this is an absolute must)
coasy :)
It just didn't say anything to me. Maybe I'm just deaf.
very nice.. especially the soundtrack!
good music, good colors
but too much layers with no good symbiosis in the beggining
and few gfxs in fact, so medium prod for me

eye and ear candy ueeee
Inspiring soundtrack by Radix & Lluvia, this was meant to be a Rrelaks prod and it shows... excellent stuff, simply get it and dream away.
oh! Goooooooooooood prod!!!
good code and music, arts.
So, I thumb up!

go gaze some more on mighty grace of sunflower gods. bowz. bowz. bowz.
Tesla is brighting proof that also in win32 good demostuff could be done. relatively simple but fast accelerated effects sparkle in our eyes and we dont find it obsolete or simple at all. it's so nice and worm and the music is so positive that we nearly cannot believe it's possible. downright a A-stuff!
Simple effects? Well, it maybe doesn't look like it, but this demo actually features quite great (and certainly nontrivial) code.
The rulez is for the perfect, chilly ambient this prod has - start this any time of day, relax and feel good.
Alot better than Wonder IMHO, but it looks similar, so people didn't appreciate this prod as they should have.

yeah, I too think this one is better then Wonder, but Wonder was there first, so..
makes me dreaming each time i watch it. simply the best.
forgot the thumbs :)
Make no mistake about it, this is a well put together demo. But the style just didn't do anything for me. It was fine to watch once due to very polished look, but the atmosphere left me feeling cold.
the music, the music, the music
relax!
the music, the music, the music.
Very relaxing music, beautiful visuals, simply eye- and ear-candy.
:) * 100
very calm, very relaxed. skillfully made track by people w/ technique and flair.
very, very good music and lovely visuals
great.
the only thing I liked in this one were the graphics by saffron. that isn't enough.
good music, good demo.
sunflower rules
yeah! :)
if i think about this one with pure logic, it has all the elements of a typical 13-in-a-dozen-demo which could make me puke, not to mention the horrible muzak playing in the background. yet still it manages to be somewhat beautiful. just as lure said, "makes me dreaming". saffron is probably the one to blame on this, or the fact that it has enough graphical layers in it to make it almost noise in some parts :)
(now the fact that i'm giving thumbs up for something with a morphing 3d-face on it makes me feel myself DIRTY)
(now the fact that i'm giving thumbs up for something with a morphing 3d-face on it makes me feel myself DIRTY)
yes!
Every time I watch Tesla I like it more and more. All the elements here are near perfect on their own - the demo itself manages to be perfect. Best demo ever made.
simply one of the best!
ROXX!
Yeah!!!
My favorite by far. Code, graphics, music. muah.
Finally registered to give this the thumb it most definately deserves
I like yoU!
fuckin' classic!
Good music, sync and graphics! 3D is simple but effective X)
There are some curious math visual effects too. I like it! X)

mostly what others said but yes still no sunflower demos is as close to my heart as zilog (and z80 rocks too!:)
It looks nice.

The music is great!

I liked the music from Lluvia&Radix very much, but I am not that fan of Sunflower multiple layers demos..
thank's for perfectly soundtrack - ... ... lt's still in my head ... in my car too .. - wonderfull bass - perfectly harmony ... - ...... i be waiting for next productions ..... best regard heb - from poland ...
I can't believe I had forgotten to rate this one. This demo is too good to be explained. Simply as that
Released at the Horizon Party, ranked 2nd in the Demo Compo
jakob and anne: great great job! i just love these tiny synth melodies.
overall very beautiful and atmospheric demo.

Very nice Demo - one of my alltime Favourites :) Love the Music - Great Dream/Ambience Style - More like that please :) :)
My favorite demo from Sunflower... really soothing thanks to the amazing Radix+Lluvia soundtrack, as well as the rock-solid and consistent design/code found throughout. Beautiful ending, too... the images definitely stay with you long after the demo is over. Top-notch work.
Eye catching YES !
Ear catching YES !
Had no idea that it was this darn gorgeous.

...and I can NOT believe I forgot the thumbs in my first comment. So here they are. While I only watch the demo sporadically, Tournesol has never left my playlist. It's an absolute classic. An ABSOLUTE CLASSIC. In the demo scene, Ambience = Tesla < Sunflower.
a beauty. really nice. and you got to love that music...
Very beautiful demo with emotional, superb music. Love it!
It's got to be my favourite. A trip into smoothness.
Just like ryg said, start this anytime, relax and feel good. Cheaper than a shrink and at least as effective as any self-help group.

This is my favourit demo... the music is perfect, graphics are very, very good and effects are good =]
Simple.beautiful.tesla: A good example of what you can do with simple effects
i wasn't big fan of this demo. well done but nothing more. still thumb up.

Perfect music, perfect 2d. A Beauty
meaningful, atmospheric, and dreamlike, but gives ya room to sit and contemplate whatever, like heaven7. definitely therapeutic. and it's fun playing the "find the facial feature" game. alright, this is getting cheesy--just wanted to throw my thumb up
Been watching it all day with the DemoSaver
tool, Who did the Musik to this Frickin Gorgeous Release If I May Ask?

its surely a nice one. Not one of my favourites, but pretty great.
Very good music, nice visuals and ok. effects.
I havenä't commented this yet? Beautiful, though the effects are in the end rather simple. Extra points for the music and the textures..
Visuals are wonderful.
best sunflower release.. gfx/msx roxxor!
this prod is beautiful
top ambient prod... I wish saffrons gfx was emphasized a little more though.. definetly one of the better tunes coming from the demoscene! radix rulez (and illuvia too)
the excessive layering and blending sometimes hides the effects away a bit too much, but I guess that's just sunflower-style. and showing off fill-rate was still cool back in '00.
stunning music, mature graphics/coloring and great overall flow. relaxing.

Five years later, I still dislike the visuals...
But the music alone deserves five thumbs in a row !

well. it is very boring. nice music tho.
atmosphere!
Unique sunflower style ahd great music.
rewelers
one of my favourites
This is my Sunflower day: third comment, third rulez. I love the music, I love the very effective design ideas and I love the fact that old Sunflower prods run perfectly well on modern hardware, Radeon included.
quite cool
nice
just a really beautiful demo
it's mostly music what makes it so beautiful, but i spotted some nice effects too.
i second fadeout
visuals are not that breath-taking
but the music ... IS
got it one my phone, best ringtone ever

One of my favourites. The mood and feel of it all is just fantastic -- the visuals and music go together so well.
very relaxing, nice colours and shapes. mmm
One of my favourites, if not the best one for me.
Gosh, forgot to thumb that up. Same comment as iq here.. <3
a must-watch,
awesome music and good visuals

also one of my faves. i just love the style with the geometry
sorry, just way too many additional blends for me.
Beautiful and relaxing.
calm and sweet, even if it's sometimes too sweet for me.
it's odd that the most memorable sunflower demo was not coded by unreal but by yoghurt, who seems to have only been doing some backup code for unreal previously.

watched a LOT of times!
tESLA.... thats what it is.. !!!
Unik design!

so simple yet so cool
Nice, but not that much more than just plenty of transparency and a chillout tune. One of the most hyped demos ever, I still wonder why.
Beautiful visuals and awesome music. Thank you! =)
very relaxing... was today again on my little demowatching list... i love this one so much - with more than superb Mosaik Soundtrack :)
best demo ever
nice visuals
Seven years later, and I still can't take my eyes out of it.
Love it.
yeah
nice, mac?
masterpiece!
Plenty of polish here.
best soundtrack ever!

what Weyland Yutani said ;)
Almost 10 years old.
LOVE!
Still not liking it, sorry Unreal.
This one was mind-melting!
There comes a time in the Demoscene world where you can actually turn the pages back a few years and find a Classic Demo that can really touch your soul.
It sounds like a stream of tears. But tears of beauty and wonder and joy. The simplicity of it gives it that mood. It is unstressed and SO relaxing to both watch and listen to.

Shit!! :D
touches me all the years since the beginning
This soundtrack here is fucking amazing.
few effects, but nice
That music, that... music. :)
One of the most beautiful demos I've seen... :/
Beautiful and ambient. Music gives me shivers in a good way.
Lovely music and that late 90ies, beginning of 2000, blending all the things awesomeness <3
Additive blending, Z-Layers galore and this damn lovely tune - after thirteen years this is still highly enjoyable - a-fucking-mazing!
Just a wonderful Chillout Style, i always love to rewatch that one from time to time. Only these days a bit tricky to watch under windows, without vsync some scenes are too fast and look destroyed.
Anyway, i really wished i could give a second thumb up for that one. Very Beautiful one :)

i love everything about it
musical masterpiece..
More collected than the masterpiece that is energia, but less impactful too. Suffers from the common syndrome at the time where people really didn't know how to approach demomaking under the new accelerated platforms, but manages to pull out some wonderful stunts regardless. I particularly love the star-like thing in the beginning. Of course some of the screens are absolutely heinous, but can be ignored once you tune into the proper chillout frequency. Fantastic music of course too.
one of my all-time favourites
/me liked
love it
Still beautiful, still amazing :)
Good one!
already thumbed, just came by to say the tune is easily in my top-3 favorite demoscene-related songs ever. utter perfection
Found it somewhat appealing to watch on a modern high-framerate, high resolution monitor. (Only suffered from color quantization at times)
Great music that turned out hard to be fully synchornized with visuals - not to allow them to flow on the side.
Soundtrack still kicks after almost 20 years but apart from that, it's one of those demos that aged really badly Blurry and undefined visuals with horrible colours just burn my eyes :(
sorry to repeat myself but this demo, hmm, i still remember seeing it run on my comp live for the first time. bit same as seeing the music video linked below for the first time. Thank you!

Good suggestion, thanks harism. Added it.
The music is so wonderful. One of the all-time classics.

this never ran on my machine at the time, and now 21 years later i finally got to watch it. nice! :D
typical Yoghurt, but on steroids received from the GPU. Clasical tunnels and plane transformations, motion blur. Particles influenced by Unreal's 73secs way of doing it. overused fascination of multi texturing, similarly like in Wonder and finally a proof point that "I can also do the Noon's face effect from an old DOS demo. Great use of talented artists who backed up the project audio-visually but at the end.. very boring and dated these days.. but fuck, it rocked back in the time, beyond comprehension so thumb up stays of course!
My favorite during the democompo.
Those spin zoom multi texture effects blew my mind back then. Love that we can now read the source code.
18 years later its not boring anymore. It's beautiful.
