Quite an extraordinary discovery this time: a Brazilian paper on demos by Emmanoel Ferreira and Abel Duarte, published at the VIII Simpósio Nacional da ABCiber (2014). The first ever demo article I’ve seen in Portuguese.

We’re happy to announce that we have a new editor who will help us speed up the updates – Antti hasn’t had much time lately and Markku has been quite burdened, too. Now Gleb has joined the crew. He’s currently doing his postdoc at the University of Zurich with a focus on software piracy. Expect some reorganizing and new items shortly.

Thanks to Brian Qiu who pointed out some broken links. Now most of them should be ok again. There are some changes looming ahead in the near future, but more on that later.

Still pondering if this should be added to the bibliography or not, but I know it’s of interest to some of you, for sure. The 8-Bit Reggae book by Nicolas Nova: http://volumique.com/shopv2/product/8-bit-reggae-collision-and-creolization/

Swedes Jimmy Wilhelmsson and Kenneth Grönwall have recently published a book called Generation 64, which is, quite obviously, about the Commodore 64, its games, demos and how it has affected people’s lives. In Swedish only for now, but there might be an English translation later, provided there’s enough interest.

We’ll surely review the articles separately when we get our hands on them, but in any case: the long-awaited book Hacking Europe is finally out and contains multiple chapters that are either about demos or otherwise relevant. (Springer)Link.
