music by Laurent Garnier
(we apologize for the commercial track, due to a lack of time. enjoy!)
to otis: no! it's not a 8-bits mp3... call Laurent Garnier for more infos lol :)))
thanks to MrZob for his rushed xm, we will use it in another demo -good job.
thanks to poï² / r i b b o n for his last minute help
thanks too to stil for his suggestions and sources
.:technical notes:.
pentium 2 class cpu needed
300Mhz or better
windows 9x/2K
some ram (16Mo free seems ok)
a sound card (it's better)
TNT2 gpu or better (32Mo VRam, OpenGL full support)
Nvidia Detonator3 minimum drivers requiered (hard use of hardware blending and back buffer copy)
[democode done on a P2-400, 128Mo, TNT2-ultra & detonator3]
all right, I know these technical feats are not in old-school demospirit, so, think only it's my first
shown-demo ever, done in a rushed-time (so only opengl optimisation was done, not low-level one (asm)).
i'll do better in another release [elric]
watch this demo at your own risks! if it crash your disk or burn your geForce3, it's not our fault! :)

.:final:.
i was born in a dream, a magical and coloured one
i played with the stars, far beyond the frontiers of my mind
then i followed the others, to slowly learn the rules of the universe
and finally fall.
all these fogotten dreams, lost in a sea of conformity...
life can be different! live your dreams!
wake-up, keep out the gray mass, plug your mind on a demo, and do dreams, some colored ones...

.:ps from 2001:.
all right. A lot of time have passed since ltp4. Consider in a first time I was very
disappointed by the result, maybe by the demospirit itlself.
We've got some problems with Alkama, and i was very disappointed by these problems.
But ok, don't care the past!
At this time far&high is a big democrew, and i'm working again with Alkama, for the best :)
I've received a lot of positive comments for this demo, so i can only apologize myself to got
some bad thinks about demospirit.
Enjoy the demoscene, and keep care, i'm back with Alkama & Mo for the ltp5.
A personal thanks to popsy-team, ojuice, knights & ribbon
and also Alkama,
we are NOW familly, we are NOW far(+)high.
