@killthetaco Although we do have an underlying message, the beauty of a demo with a loose narrative is that it is open to interpretation. Let yourself bathe into it and discover the personal messages and meanings it conveys to you. Alternatively, you can go to pouet dot net, search for Lifeforce and read the info file =)
@amusicgr thanks for the url. hmm... what you're saying is a little confusing. see, i've always that of art as an alternative way to say some idea from the artist through expression rather than flat out saying it (or something that simply can't be flat out said). anyway, you're saying that art doesn't have to have an idea from the artist, but can rather be meant to be interpreted differently for different people? cool, i've never thought art could be like that, but it's true. thnx

mighty effects but.. whole video does not looks impressive for me. i think it can be improved significantly by shortening. the problem is that author probably doesn't know which scenes to cut and which to leave .
@ 2:16 The "oldie" Gregorian-like singing mixed with techno and "computer-noise" bits made my heart beat a bigger than the average. Of course I love the whole demo but that part is very close to me especially with the visuals. I hope ASD won't give up creating masterpieces like this. :)

Does anyone think the visuals in this demo are mirroring whats going on in the world at this time?...was that the idea? Co-incidence? perhaps life immitating art?
I see lots of ecological oil,gulf-related symbolism and even reference to foxconn..... regarding knife in wrist....well in any case.....
@gfxeditor models are made in wings3d then imported in the demo engine. No animation is done in any software from there on. It's pure code. (Oh and textures in photoshop)
omfg.. intense.. high end hollywood stuff programmed by the common man.. love it. I love the demoscene because it's all about pushing the envelope more than the next guy. A dick measuring contest, where your ability to code is the dick.
You know what? People are always complaing and bitch bitch bitch. That's the easiest thing to do.
The recording turned out fine, no matter what you think.
If the video is not as smooth as you'd like, you can complain at Youtube administrators, since all my fraps recordings are at 60fps and Youtube transcodes them back to 30fps.
This a scene demo from the Greek group ASD. The party was Assembly 2007. Pretty cool huh? I will be uploading a couple more of this group, because they are fucking awesome!:D
It is a demo, but not in the traditional sense of "demo" that you are familiar with (i.e. not a band demo of their music, or a preview version of a game or software). 500 characters in youtube is very little space to explain, so I suggest you go to wikipedia and search for the term "demoscene" . Read all about it.. and trust me.. a whole new world will unfold before your eyes =)

I love that there is a plot in ASD demos. They are abstract, obscure and symbolistic, but all have quite a definite line.

well, is there meaning behind the details of the video? or is it just meant to look cool? does it have some kind of message behind it?

"which scenes to cut and which scenes to leave"... o.O
Dont worry... must be simple ignorance.

Postal71391 3 years ago
They are a demo group. They are both artists and coders. Well errrm...coding can be considered as a form of art. That's how i see it at least!
You can download the demos yourself and see them on your PC, realtime, with great picture quality. There a lot of groups that are equally good.

They're actually more like a team of programmers, this video is called a "demo"
