========================================
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
