Poems for bugs - A seminar held by lft at Revision 2013

Platforms come and go, but the C64 remains.

This is a seminar about the beauty of C64 coding, how it relates to other human endeavours, and why it is as culturally relevant as ever. We will see how, for thousands of years, people have meticulously crafted works of art in a waning tradition that, perhaps unexpectedly, lives on through C64 coding.

While there are clear connections between the demoscene and the visual arts and music, little has been said about the literary skills of the coder. Skills that, unfortunately, have lost their significance on modern platforms.

Don’t miss this extraordinary programming seminar for coders and non-coders alike.

The creative Flash scene is amazing.

The creative Flash scene is amazing. I really enjoy watching presentations from various Flash events to be inspired by the talented speakers.

In the following weeks I’d like to share a couple of videos from such events with you. The first one is by Ralph Hauwert, presented at the Flash Camp Tokyo in 2010. I’m especially happy to see the demoscene mentioned in the video. The talk is titled “Skunkworks”.

Enjoy and be inspired!
