not sure of the GFX so no Screenshot :) -- Strange and Strange. Maybe my NVIDIA TI 4200 -- Who Knows today ?

I'm pretty sure that's how it's suposed to look.
After Planet Risk I expected much but what is this? Strange. I hope it doesnt supposed to look like it did on my machine. Very "fragmented" screens..
mostly moving noise, but well synced and nice music
The best term for this demo is "organized noise."
My expections won`t be as high for the next one.
expectations even..
This wasnt released at breakpoint but at The Gathering :)
No, I think it was released at BP05, because they also released another demo at TG05 and the 3rd one of the trilogy is planned for Pixelshow :)
Let me check the results though..

Not the demo type I like, noisy visuals, possibly well presented but annoying for my tastes,. piggy saved by the music which rules!
The other one is called Ambience for the Masses, I am just downloading..
this is dope stuff.
thank you so much asd for proving that noise demos can rule and still be fun to watch for people who don't like that kind of thing.

I'm not sure I saw what I had to see :) But I liked what I saw, so it's a thumb up.
i like very much ! bravo
The hand rules!
blairwitch-project meets the video-filter from ion-traxx. No cigar.
Just a quick note to say that the screenshot *is* right, and it is supposed to look like this, and it was released at breakpoint :)
cool filter.
and I liked music.

eh ?
( to be honest music was nice )

I don't get the point of that much distortion. Some things look ok but most doesn't. And those cubes don't fit in at all.
This demo is the second part of the "Ambience - Aphorism - Antidote" trilogy. It is an experiment in sound reactive graphics (or distortions if you prefer) and is somehow a tribute to Satori. Allo? Was?
Oh.. you can also check the first part here:

Extremely disappointing after something like Planet Risk :(
This was actually quite well done, I thought :)
the noise/filter/fuckup was nearly as uninspired as our bcnparty demo (not intended as a lame plug). i hope you got drunk and had fun when making it, and i'm somehow assuming you did.
if it was really intended as a serious attempt to do something totally special or cool or whatever, then you kind of failed, however.
fuckings to all the "oh no it's not glowy and shiny and totally unlike planet risk, i'm so disappointed!!"-idiots, though. make a glowdemo yourself instead of complaining about competent demomakers who prefer making something they like to make instead of pleasing your puny little mind.

Yes sir i liked it sir. I am sooo happy that you guys didn't try to ride with Planet Risk and try to make another one like it.
yes. this was very enjoyable thankyouverymuch.
As I told to Amusic, I like when people try something new. Music-generated visuals are also cute.
fucking ruuuulez! Noise with style, thankyou sirs!
Kudos to people supporting a scene that (at least tries) to expand artistically (the end result is somehow irrelevant) rather than being typecasted.
I love the music (almost enough to go for the piggy), the rest is shit.
Sorry, noise is not art, no matter what you want to believe.

hehe, i guess some might disagree here but i liked this a lot more than planet risk :)
awesome visuals and music!

The trilogy is focused on the Aristotle's element line of Aether, Fire and Water. Aphorism is the Fire part. You can control fire up to a certain extent, but fire is always unpredictable both in its movements and constraint. The various backbone synch points and imagery is depicting the control and constrain of the fire, while the distortions and artifacts are representing the randomness and unpredictability of the flames, that however begin with a seed.. the flammable material (which is the music and its frequencies). The style of the music is harsh and expands into a multitude of frequencies to show the wildness and mercilessness of fire.
As for the 3d objects appearing at certain occasions.. ahm.. well you could say they are the currywurst being cooked ehehehehehe =)
Skrebbel, we were not drunk when we made this demo. We were however when we watched it on the big screen =)

dunno
I liked previous ASD prods but this one is boring and ugly =(
I expected to see random noise, after some comments.
Well... this is NOT even noise! Well it has some noise at the background, but the most part is a distorted video, pictures and/or something, synched with the music! If you try to see what's hapenning, you'll notice how the colors match to music's moods at some points.
This production is superb. While Planet Risk drops your jaws at the floor because of it's effect, Aphorism gives you harsh emotions with a touch of anger at some points and unexpected calmness at others.
I really like it. Thumbs up from me :-). I want to see more prods like this at the future :-).

hmm...
i like the music..
i like the sync...
i like the idea...
but..
it's kinda 'overdistorted' for my taste..
still.. thumbs up for the effort...

Evolution!
You call this "artistical expansion"? I think its a pretty common approach of distorting what is seen as norm aka noisedemo. We all have seen many. Though I have to confirm that this is extremely well executed.
If you want to make something remotly new try a pop-art demo or something.

visual noise <3
Quite a nice one, but I prefer the older demos of ASD. :Q
didnt know you had the balls to do satori/kooma style stuff. pretty impressive!
please keep experimenting the ASD style!
cant wait to see what you pull out next.
damn greeks.

So in case all you complainers haven't got it yet: The rule is DO WHAT YOU F*ING WANT WHEN MAKING YOUR DEMO. And they did. And this is the result. and it RULES.
im in love.
im in love.
this is the first ASD demo i really like!
pretty please continue to experiment.
and keep up the good work!

i like it! it's filthy, i like filth.
beautiful
Hmm, didn't enjoy this one too much...
ASD actually did something I really like. Could've done without the cubes and piano fill and 'traditional demo' elements, but I'll rationalise that to myself by calling them the experimental bits =)
forgot to thumb :)
I agree with the MFX people. This is goodgood.
bad ASD
didnt do it for me at the compo. i should see it again, but then i need new hardware
Serious (or maybe standard ? :) releases from ASD is not for me but this one ! I like it also the 'first part' released on Gathering05 ! Good work.
MUSIC RUUUUUUULES too :)
MUSIC RUUUUUUULES too :)
Yes, a totally different ASD stuff. I understand this might be a shock to someone when compared to previous kick ass demos. But hey, this kicks too.. ass is just a bit different this time. Nice job!
no way ...
i liked it on the bigscreen!
i respect ASD big time for having the balls to really try something new and experimental instead of just copying earlier productions. there are not many groups around that do that. too bad it wasn't appreciated enough. my personal winner demo from BP05 :) .
horrible
This is a real work of art.
Refreshing and different, I love everything about this demo, I just watched it 4 times in a row.

Seems like ASD have turned into drug addicts :) Not a prod for me this one :)
The music kicks a lot. Especially after the greetings and before the ending. I have to say that the visuals did not please me. The howthehelldidtheydoit element was completely missing. It takes a great effort though, to organize chaos with so decent results. I can tell because I was recently experimenting with the same kind of idea.
I had to watch it a lot of times to figure out if I love or hate it. And this alone deserves a thumb up.

Rocks.
the visuals rock, the music doesn't.
Nice they tried something different, and it worked out great!
![[self-ban]](https://content.pouet.net/avatars/intro.gif)
It was definitely a wise choice for ASD to try a new style, it really worked out well imo. I love their previous stuff, but this one is a makes a great change, and the music is really in-yer-face. Great stuff.
YEAH!
I was expecting something quite different and I think this prod looks more like an MFX or Satori prod, but it was a nice experiment, very enjoyable to watch.
Waste of time.
EXcellent.
Great job!I beleive this to be one of the many new ideas and head-blowing demos we will see from asd.A bit confusing at start , but if you see it one more time you can see chaos in order.Can you do that? :)
Not the way I like to watch demos...
Although I am pretty interesseted in Aristotle and really appreciate art influencing the scene, I don't think the link is really obvious. I really like the new approach of asd (not only because it gave us the chance to become 3rd).
But somehow it could have more contrast (not in colors but in density and abstraction). The cubes hurt a lot. The music it brilliant although not really fitting for fire.
Because I thumped up [url=http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=13272] I have no choice.

...
asd can to be mainstream, and asd can to be alternative. they really CAN.
Hmmm... no glow?
This is no mainstream demo... its more an experimental piece of art. Very interesting visuals and a very interesting and well done tune. One of the most interesting releases this year... i like it!

hmm, 1 bit gray is enough?
best one of the trilogy imho
massive visuals
OMG!!! amazing!!! seriously, i don't like many of these noise demos but this one ROCKS!
i hope this works out :)

damn... how did i get alkamas avatar there? :(
well, i think you got what i wanted to say :p
well, i think you got what i wanted to say :p
this is really cool!!!! Sorry
a bit strange, but yeah asd :)
Nice and dirty. Altough I would've liked the music to be even dirtier :)
I think the ASD guys have been eating the 'shroom from haujobbs Kosmiset Avaruus Sienet (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=2856)
And I like the result! :-p
And I like the result! :-p
more experimental than what I'm used to seeing from ASD, but it grew on me as the demo progressed.
I see things.
I don't remember this from BP at all, but it sure rocks.

Has a weird and interesting appeal, but you definately shouldn't watch this one too often!
ROCKS!!!
truly weird stuff, not like those pretending to be one.
This is really good and weird, even if I'm not usually into noise prods. Definitely worth a watch (but not too often)
Here are the lyrics :
Is that it?
God?
I'll tell you...
...let me give you a little inside information about God.
God likes to watch.
He's a prankster.
Think about it.

WOW NICE!!
thumb up for the masses.
zarbi
thumb up for all trilogy
What a mess! :)
satanik glitchmachine
This shit rocks!!!
Great stuff - just when everything seems a llittle messy, things blend nicely together anyway.
really cool visual style in this demo (i haven't seen the others yet - this one was shown at nvscene). the music is nice overall, with great bass that's shaking the room, although there's some really sharp treble synth sounds early on that were hard on my ears. again, really nice to look at this one!
I didn´t like this at all.
folow sir
noise
The noise was nice but maybe too excessively used.
...
Feels like mfx demo with amusic's music, yep.
rocks hard (not)
noisy
hm.
well executed, comes as a whole
