• demo Amiga OCS/ECS Interference by Sanity
• I like the starfields and dottunnel most in this demo.

• Awesome demo! Some people at Youtube wrote:
  "I sense trickery on the vector cubes part of the demo. I'm guessing they render one cube and display it multiple places on screen doing some point math for it's position in 3d space. It's just too many polygons for a 7.16MHz 68000 to render. Not putting it down, it's a really neat trick. That kind of clever thinking made demos like these possible."
  "Yep. Calculate one cube and render it into a block of memory, then using another set (or even the same set of matrix calculations for simple shapes) blit that bob onto those x,y coords.
  You could also precalc all those coords beforehand to save cycles, or even render every single rotation of the cube as a seperate blitter object in memory for even greater speed gains.
  Doing the latter and rendering a single consecutive line from each object in memory allowed for the 'rubber objects' you often see in some demos of that period."
  "All the cubes are identical - they're just in different positions, so they're not really cubes in 3d space since they don't increase or decrease in size as they get closer or further away from the viewer. So they'd precalculate each variation of cube angle, then as they draw each one use the pre-calc version.. I can't remember the cheat way to draw with only filled shapes but there was a way - you essentially just marked the start and end of a fill/colour on a vertical line, and the raster processor did the rest.
  What was truly amazing back then was the zoom in and out of the bitplane. Amiga had a funny way of representing images and it was intense math to zoom in and out like that, almost impossible to do at the required frame rate - a whole image like this. These original demos inspired stuff later down the track like Wolfenstein on the PC."

  Trump is from Fairlight? Is RZR problematic with Republicans? I think it's today the best combo at politics...

  Trump sure is much better than the alternative, Hillary Clinton, who wants to make the Western world into a Caliphate, and a part of the 3rd world.

• Classic. Uncle Tom's awesome music and Atom's nice coding.
