R.I.P. Winterthur, Welcome in Olten, a new beginning !!!
Is the contact form on the website broken?
@Shifter: Thanks for the feedback! Possibly it was not working.. the whole page was kinda broken yesterday. I just tested it and it's working again now. Or what did you try that didn't work?
New things coming up at the Demodays!
We bring you a fresh categorization and two thrilling new competitions - all of that to keep things interesting at a small party like ours. For the first time, you can take part in the new Mini-Animation compo, where it's your job to create a 10 seconds animation (without music) that will be looped for 1 minute. No time to produce a full-fledged animation entry? Mini-Animation allows you to show your skills in less time. For the species of photo addicts, there's the new Photo Retouching competition: We decided against a pure photo compo and want to see your retouching skills - show what you can do best!
Because we lacked entries in some categories in past years, we have given a good shaking to our competitions. We're combining everything into a few single categories no matter whether it's oldschool or newschool, hardware hack or software masterpiece: The new competitions are called Realtime Demo, Realtime Size-Limited, Non-Realtime and Interactive. Read all about this new schema (and the voting mode coming with it) on our competitions page.
Let's go for interesting compos - we're waiting for your entries :-) (even remote). \o/

BÜNZUUUUU!
really nice site! hope to be there this time... it's good to see that there's a interactive compo :) (and not just a game compo)
tanks, 0rel, we hope that there'll be some fresh interactive entries to that compo (like last years mad visual-guitar-player thing ;-)) and decent games, too.
ah yes, misuco! that was really special :) hope to find the time to try something with interactive sound too again...
Why no Wild compo?
@metoikos:
Q: OMG! There's no wild competition, what can I do with my wild entry?
A: So called «wild» entries used to be anything that didn't fit to any other category because it, for example, made use of «weird» hardware. With the change of our categories to be platform independant, your wild entry will for sure either fit to one of the realtime compos, to the interactive competition or to the non-realtime competition.

You like to demoparty all summer long? In that case, Evoke and Demodays are part of your must-do schedule.. and for those crazy souls standing those two parties in a row, we got the combined ticket back up again: We will provide a nice discount for those who visit both Evoke and Demodays this year. Just buy the Combined Ticket at Evoke for both parties and get a 5 Euro discount (the price for Demodays in Euro has not been disclosed yet, because of the wacky exchange rate).

No demoparty without proper live acts: Demodays presents Ultrasyd (Friday evening) and Restless Leg Syndrome (Saturday), live on stage with pumping music for you to listen, enjoy and dance.
