Hi all,

For anyone in Sydney or willing to visit Sydney, here is an invitation 
to a demo scene event coming up in June. These parties are common in 
Europe but are very rare in Australia!

The Australian Demo Scene would like invite you to an event named 
FLASHBACK for a weekend of fun for all demo sceners and computer 
enthusiasts.


Flashback is a computer festival, dedicated solely to the demoscene - a 
place to present and celebrate real-time animations (demos), 
pre-rendered animation, graphics and music. The word "demoparty" is 
globally used to describe this gathering of computer programmers 
(coders) / musicians / Graphic Artists (2D and 3D) all under one roof.


Computer Platforms: PC, AMIGA COMMODORE 64,


The following competitions will be taking place:


GRAPHICS Compo:

DEFAME. This weekend is a fun event for everyone that is interested in 
the demo scene, especially older computer platforms such as the c64 and 
the Amiga where the computer digital arts direction started back in the 
80s from the first of computer gaming and computer hacking and cracking 
groups that has now developed into a world of digital arts. We welcome 
ALL NEWCOMERS. If you feel that you would be interested please let feel 
free to come along and join in the fun. The event is for all people, 
experience not required, so feel free to enter the competitions no 
matter how experienced you are.

Our Goal

To welcome new Computer enthusiasts interested in the demo scene and 
real-time computer graphics and apart from a week end of socializing and 
competing in the competitions it�s a chance to gather Ex Sceners back 
into the scene that were active many years ago that carried the demo 
scene through its best moments of the scene in the years 80s, 90s and 2000s.
