I forgot from which year the stuff shown at breakpoint was, but this is a 'demo' from 1926!

Emak Bakia

ouch! 321.4Mb

I didn't know they had the .mpg format way back in 1926. That definitely must've been a technical break-through for the time.

... Amiga had .lzx/.lzh but many demos come in a .zip
Your "joke" isn't even a bit funny. ;)

Well fuck, I had to write something whilst that monstrosity was downloading...

Hey that's cool a must have for every real scener ;-)

It contains dramatical funny music and the first sine scroller i think and many many more nice stuff...

lots of nice stuff, but it's wild-animation, not demo.

1926? Pah... Plato already organized the first demoparty thousands of years before:

very cool indeed.

I'm not sure, but I think at BP were following movies from Oskar Fischinger shown:

• (1931) Studie Nr. 6
  
• (1931) Studie Nr. 7
  
• (1935) Komposition In Blau
  

More Information about his works you can find at the internet.

impressive fx.. interference, metaballs, wobblers, environment mapped 3d-stuff,etc.etc.. ;)

Big thanks for the link Okkie, some parts of the movie are a bit boring, but some are really worth watching.

after all i thought it was muslimgauze who came up with emak bakia.

havoc: wow, Plato's allegory of the cave, I didnt expect greek philosophy on pouet, you raised the level like never before on those threads ;)

Heron of Alexandria built an automaton theatre some time between 10 AD and 70 AD, wouldn't that be more of a demo?
