Evoke 2015 - 31 July - 2 August - Köln-Kalk
category: parties [glöplog]
Party train tickets have been booked once more. I hope the ICE stocks more beer this year.
@Saga: Zähl mich innen!
@Hardy: if your really interested please contact me via wanted.scene.org
Any news about the tracking-compo? Only one month to go ...
Must make a trip back to Koln again and visit this party, even if that does not happen this year. Last time I was at Evoke was back in 2007 as this was a stag-type party as I got married later that year. Though the experience was enjoyable and a trip over to Germany is always welcomed at any time :)
gaspode, hopefully i can tell more next week!
felice: lets stag party again! with more stags!
Live Acts & Seminars - Goto80 & Sebastian Bergmann
Evoke is not just about sitting infront of computers and enjoying their outputs on the bigscreen - we also want to give you food for ears, legs and brain. So, we are happy to announce our first batch of live artists and seminar conveners for this year.
As our musical headliner, we are very happy to have the legendary Goto80 (of Up Rough! and Hack'n'Trade fame) playing on Friday night. Goto80 is a Swedish old media artist and researcher who works with music and text. He was one of the pioneers of the new 8-bit music movement in the 1990s, after starting in the demoscene, and now makes music for performances and records, games, demos, movies and art projects. Goto80's music is like a low-res explosion of styles, ranging from lush ambient and cheesy pop to furious datapunk and complex beats.
30 years after the birth of AMIGAAAAA Sebastian Bergmann will give a seminar on how to free your old amiga from the attic and how to connect it to a modern world of highres displays, broadband internetconnections and afordable flash storage. A close to two decades ago Sebastian mothballed (figuratively, not literally) his Amiga 1200. Over the years he often wondered what it would take to "resurrect" his amiga. In march of this year he finally went heads first into the adventure of bringing his amiga back. In his seminar, Sebastian will give an detailed overview of how far he has come and what he found out is needed to make an amiga play nicely with nowadays peripherals.

Wop wop. I took some time off and my request just got approved.
Wait. No One-Sample Tracked Music compo ?
"Infos will be announced soon."
rather see the looped music back, i have plenty old stuff for that! :P

Ok ok. That 's' did give it away. It implies there are at least two tracked music compos. It could still be oldschool & newschool though. I'll be sitting here, waiting in anticipation! My tracker is ready."Infos will be announced soon."
No, it implies that the poster is German. ;)
I think it makes sense. Informationen is always more than one. I seldom encoutered just one information, they tend to come in doses. A bit like data,. oh hum. never mind. I'll shut up now and I'll just be monitoring that page.
just curious: what does that bit like most: dah-ta, day-ta or datta?
I don't know what your context is, but people who say 'Dah-ta' is a pet hate of mine. (I do forgive non-english speakers).
'Day-ta' is only the correct way.
'Day-ta' is only the correct way.
Quote:
The pronunciation /ˈdeɪtə/ DAY-tə is widespread throughout most varieties of English. The pronunciation/ˈdætə/ DA-tə is chiefly Irish and North American. The pronunciation /ˈdɑːtə/ DAH-tə is chiefly Australian, New Zealand and South African. Each pronunciation may be realized differently depending on the dialect of the speaker.

context.
and it was just the first thing my mind associated after numtek's explanation on what information is stopped so abruptly.
also imagine my facial expression when I read the name of the person who posted that 2 years ago...

None of the above, it likes audio samples. Or 'sample', rather, there is no plural. Unless you're counting in (smpte) samples.
Tracked Music - "Rob Is Jarig" Remix Compo!
As the only party where "Rob Is Jarig" managed to win a democompo (in 2008), this year we decided to honour the floor-shaking soundtrack of the timeless PC demoscene classic. Or, to be more precise, to let it be honoured by YOUR remixes. Show us your best tracker interpretation of the song and see whether people flock to the stage to shake their bones to it! You are only allowed to use the original samples. Read more about the compo rules here.

So you have to remix the original, with only the original samples?
I'm calling the "original song sped up to 200bpm" as compo winner right now.
