========================================
A modest hommage to the Tech Tech style:

            In November 1987
          Sodan & Magician 42
          released Tech Tech
             on the Amiga.

           In December 1989
            The Carebears
           converted it into
         Grodan and Kvack Kvack
            for the Atari ST.

              In May 2005
             Defence Force
     realized it could not be done
    on the Oric but tried anyway !!!

========================================
         Release date: May 2015

About this intro:
========================================
The two first big Oric demos were 
released at the Very Important Party.

The "Oric Giga Demo" was released at the 
VIP3 in 2001, and then "Quintessential"
released at the VIP4 in 2002.

Thirteen years later we are back with a
modest contribution to the VIP 2015.

This time it's not an epice effort in
which a dozen of persons contributed; it
is just a small pure technical screen
such as we were busy doing back in the 
late eighties.

By definition the Tech Tech type of 
screens is impossible to do on the Oric,
but I tried my best to give something
that at least gives the idea, which in
this particular case meant that it had
to:
- contain digisound
- ideally Kraftwerk 
- some carebears images
- scrolls in all directions
- have as many layers as possible
- and be totally unreadable

Mission accomplished? I let you judge!

========================================
How can I watch this?:
========================================
That's easy.
You either have a real Oric Atmos or 
Pravetz 8D you just convert it to a sample
and load it from tape.

Or you don't have an Oric, in which case
you can use one of the many Oric emulators
now available.

The emulator of choice these days is 
Oricutron, developed by Xeron, which has
the benefit of running on a multitude of
different operating systems, of being open
source, and still developed:

- http://code.google.com/p/oriculator/

As usual the source code will be available
on the subversion repository (after the
party)
- http://miniserve.defence-force.org/svn
and the video will be uploaded on youtube
