Forever 8 - March 16.-18. 2007 08:08
Its going to be 8th Forever in a row so
this will be a kind of round aniversary
;-) Forever is an annual multiplatform
8-bit party held in Trencin/Slovakia.
The major plattforms are:
ZX Spectrum (48/128) which is
traditionally strong in released demo
productions. They also have a strong
ace up their sleeve - the most
sympathetic foreveran - Gasman/Raww
Arse a creative and smart gentleman
whose witty crossplattfrom jokes became
a traditional feature of Forever party
compos. To add even more flavour of
decent british humour, last time he
brough another cool Speccy celebritney
- Icabod - a raww.org scene news site
maintainer. The list of other speccy
celebritneys is so long, that I will
keep it for another post ;-).
Atari (800xl/130XE) which is getting
stronger visitors & compo-participants
base every year which makes us really
proud and happy. They also have a
strong representant in their troops.
A dude called Raster whose demos,
intros and even graphics became
legendary for their humour, originality
and presentation. Not to speak about
ever growing polish creative scene
base which maybe started slow in first
years of Forever party, but now it
shows that it must be counted with.
...and C64 - traditionally getting the
richest scale of visitors from all
around the europe but lately having the
least supported demo compo of all 3
plattforms which makes us feel
humiliated and insecure ;-) (...can't
get rid of habbit of writing in 3rd
person).
As for features. Last year we had
more-or-less surprising visitors from
Serbia, Jailbird and DaFunk who
(according to JB) are plannig to repeat
this trip again. We also had a live
jamming Retroskoi session (idea by IDE
developer - Visac/Cult) featuring
TopSecret as improvisation leader and
wannabe keyboardist with no experience
(but substituting this handicap by
enthusiasm) one an only - guess who
would be so stupid - CreaMD.
The last year performance should be
topped by this years attempt where we
would like to have more computers
playing live than last time (total 2
;-)).
This year you can again expect the
quizes, competitions, Music/Author
guessing compos, presentations and
other entertaining features as usual
traditionally moderated by our
courtspeaker Wotnau/Dmagic.
As for the rest. You can be sure that
C64 scene has the greatest (and most
exhausting) music compos ever. The
beautiefooliest GFX compos of all the
platfforms. We also have the most
beautiful sceners at the party (thanx
to me, my sister and Wotnau). All we
need to make our reputation solid and
secured is to make some demos and 1k
intros. So please, keep that in mind
when thinking about participating/
coming to Forever 8 party.
You can check/register in the Forever
#8 party visitors list Or check the
Forever 8 page for info If you would
like to compete, you can choose from
GFX, Music, 1k intro, Demo or Wild
compo cathegories.
As usual, send your stuff to
creamd@c64.sk Have fun!
