• demo Windows Intrinsic 2 by Scum Of The Earth
• IMHO this gem was really underrated at the party but then this was at a time where most people probably already lost their sense for subtlety. :)
  
  I really like the clean rendering, especially combined with the soundtrack - ps, I must disagree, I think minimal techno fits the scenes way better than drone :)

• demo Windows Rainbow Clash: Shine by United Force [web] & Digital Dynamite [web]
• Ooooh shiny <3
  
  Tuneage is nice and fits well with the other Rainbow Clash tracks but somehow the mix is annoying. It could use some reengineering, then it'd be really cool.

• demo invitation Windows Deep in the Underground by vacuum [web]
• Damnit, didn't get the copper bar joke, was too busy still pondering about what Slengpung Escorts might look(&feel) like... ;)

• demo Windows From Under by Still [web]
• "Aaah he fucked up the date recognition" -- Chaos, during the compo, when the demo didn't end the way he expected :)
  
  This is a really fine trip, in multiiple best senses of the word :)

• demo JavaScript What Are You Syncing About? by Ninjadev [web]
• Haha, that soundtrack, so bubbly, I think you are physically unable to not like it. :)
  
  What everyone else said, basically. Love the colors and the sync (even if IMHO you missed the one or other nice chance the music gave you), and that B&W 2D->3D transition in the middle is just perfect. :)

• demo Windows sp04 - Hello, Kevin - A Dental Journey by Spacepigs [web]
• You forgot your thumb, Kevin

• demo Windows sp04 - Hello, Kevin - A Dental Journey by Spacepigs [web]
• As far as the discussion is concerned, I'm pretty much with Gargaj. Context matters, and given the fact that Kevin seems perfectly able to produce a demo without even having hands, let alone regrow his teeth and eyes and be in two places at once, I fail to see how you can construe any comment about actual disability from this production, intended or not. And of course the whole dental aspect is designed to rip you out of your comfort zone (it certainly did for me, and judging from the comments here I'm far from alone) but that's a very different thing from actually being offensive.
  
  Instead some quick praise about everything else:
  + That torrent of production company jingles (a trend that's definitely getting worse) plus the "directorial decision" to cut their fadeouts in a desperate and cutely self-conscious attempt to keep their length under control.
  + The obvious allusions to David Firth (Salad Fingers) with that character design and the general eerieness...
  + David O'Reilly (The External World) with the non-sequitur cuts but also the "tech coming alive" bits like the radio and that power button
  + ... and The Stanley Parable - here one could also note that in both cases the narrator is condescending but pretty powerless.
  + the constant shifting and moving of the fourth wall. Kevin being aware of the camera and even on-screen UI overlays, those chat overlays (which I had to laught pretty hard about because in a way they were a comment about me. :D)
  + ... and especially the moment when the kickdrum started and the Revision crowd went bonkers as planned. Guys, you're part of the narrative now.
  
  I can very much understand everyone who watches this at home and wonders wtf is the big deal but I've rarely seen a production so perfectly tailored for the very moment and audience it was shown to. Oh, and of course + the pretty perfect audio and timing but I wouldn't expect less from jco there :)

• demo Windows Soul Splitter by Cocoon [web]
• Thumb for the honest attempt to tear down the party hall with that soundtrack. :)
  
  Apart from that, yeah, torn between "it's obviously really good" and "they're showing the same stuff they've been showing for years now". If I had a wish I'd wish for more off-the-rails Cocoon stuff like Sandbox Punks or even Glon 243 in the future
