ZINE: The Radio Show#31 - Beyond the Scene: Fanedits with Bobson DugnuttEveryone loves themselves a good movie, just like a good realtime-rendered scene - and as we do with the latter, some people take their passion obscenely far in making their favourite movies the best they can be. We talk with Bobson Dugnutt about fanedits, a small scene that might seem familiar in all but its final products.

2023-01-171h 30ZINE: The Radio Show#26 - A Dive Into the Scene’s Psychology with TomWelcome to our biggest episode yet!
We can all agree sceners are a peculiar bunch, and our scene is a community like no other, juggling creativity and technical prowess, often even within the same individuals.
What does it do with us to create, compete and socialise in this environment, and how can we take care of our own and others’ wellbeing?
We explore the psychology behind the demoscene, demoparties and demomaking with Tom, who does not just create amazing Atari-demos with Genesis Project, Effect and SMFX, but also lectures on Community Psychology at th...

2022-07-011h 28ZINE: The Radio Show#23 - For Easter is a Sceners Christmas with Steeler25 years ago in Northern Germany, an Amiga/C64 demoparty called "Symposium" and a PC demoparty called "Mekka" decided to merge into one common demoscene event on Easter, bringing the home computer and PC demoscene under one roof - Something almost unthinkable at the time.
This was the beginning of a tradition that was eventually carried on by Breakpoint and resulted in Revision, the world's biggest pure demoparty.

2021-11-021h 19ZINE: The Radio Show#16 Even nostalgia isn't the same anymoreThe scene is nothing if not a giant ball of sobbing about how everything was better when computers were just growing their eighth bit - but is that a good thing? Are we taking up the space from the future with the past? What's better, to make a fresh demo on an old platform, or an old demo on a fresh platform? The show dives into these weighty questions while, naturally, reminiscing about old times, because of course.

2021-10-0550 minZINE: The Radio Show#14 No, really - why DO people make demos?Most of us have been in the scene for a decade or more - so much that it's become second nature. But in 2021, with the massive reach of social media and various other computer art outlets gaining popularity - why would anyone else start making demos? Are we just doing it out of nostalgia and muscle memory? The show takes a look at the shifting relevance of the scene!

2021-07-301h 05ZINE: The Radio Show#13 Is the scene’s online presence sustainable?The turn of the millennium pushed the demoscene to cover a lot of online ground, but now 20 years later modern Internet habits and centralization is putting undue pressure on the actively used websites, while other sites just wither out once the maintainers leave. The show discusses the reasons, the problems, the prospects, and possible solutions to this ongoing conundrum.

NetpoetLive It Forwards, Understand It BackwardsThis is my contribution to Sound of SceneSat 4. This soundtrack was planned to dress a demo that, despite all my efforts, never came to be. It depicts nothing more and nothing less than life itself, from being conceived to being born, growing up, falling in love, failing, getting back on your feet, making your dreams come true and, when autumn has passed, fading out before peaceful departure.
Accepting that things don’t always turn out the way you had planned them to, with tears of joy, I am now setting this piece free, proud for Ziphoid/SceneSat to have asked me...

Hopefully making up for the radio silence with nine carefully selected tunes – including not one, but two classic remixes.
