A slideshow of photo's with annoying background music. Wel not really music arrgh!! But in memory of those who died when a dam broke down ? FR at evoke 2005.. I never watch this again ;D
atmospheric, disturbing and different.
dam(n). i like it. athmospheric and stuff :)
I don´t know why this production was in the demo comp it´s more wild... whatever - I like it!
DEBUG BUILD OF OPENGL APPLICATION <--- WTF ?!? ---> FARBRAUSCH
just great atmosphere, really like it.

This is no demo
kolonija lite?
I got tired after one minute and stopped the slideshow.
actually it's not really a demo.
but it rocks so hard.
awesome photography, great music.

Hm until the end I was sure it was nature talking to mankind. Great stuff, if maybe a tad too long.
you have a good digicam.
definitely doesn't belong in a demo compo, but as a slideshow it's very atmospheric and the photos are excellent. who did what in this prod then?
i really enjoy this one
I can see what this is trying to be, but eventually, it fails.
Sucks because it's not a 3d flyby with spikeballs and techno music. Oh wait, we hate those. Sucks because it's not bashing Amiga. Oh wait, we're over that. Sucks because it's not traditional Farbraush. Oh wait they've never been traditional. What are they SAYING? Omg next thing you know the scene won't be dead.
would have won the powerpoint-stye-slide-compo for sure... but nah not in demo
This totally rocked me on the bigscreen. Might have been the combination with a high amount of drugs, though ;)
was a floating restful moment during compo.
Nice idea and (some) cool photos, great disturbing music... but the execution of it all lacks something... it's terribly boring and imho fails into delivering a solid message (maybe due to some of the phrases). Still it's something else and for that it deserves my thumb up.
What tomaes said.
Sorry guys, but WTF ???
excellent stuff!
Really nice stuff, but ... pretty much defeats commentary. Maybe the text might be better, it's impact is not that clear.
But at least the construction of the demo, its juxtaposition of images that do not follow strictly the narrative suggested by the text is a nice twist.

now I wonder how a skilled guy like MadenMann get the wrong type of prod, this ain't no demo, this is a plain and simple Slideshow.
Ok I enjoyed the photos, but hey... I check deviantart if want to see photos or turn on the tv.
Now for the not so poilitically correct message: 14,7MB for this shit ?
come on...

evil: define demo. :|
parapete: i did most of the ugly opengl code, took the photos and generally started the demo. ryg did the image compressor and some last minute fixing, kb did the soundsys, the text and some last minute fixing, rp did the soundscape and chaos also did some last minute fixing. still this is not finished and will be followed by a refined final version. i used opengl since i want to do versions for different os'es, and i forgot the debug info because i was quite wasted.
Nice feeling, but...
Somewhat I like this
slashy: I don't suppose it was intended to win anything. I guess it's about telling something. Problem is that most sceners don't want to hear or think about anything.
My problems with the production:
- the pictures where nice but not all where destructive enough to support the intended mood
- reading the text distracted from image / without text, the images would not transport the message
- Too much text, to many images (I always need some seconds to really love a picture)
- The pictures where not abstract enough to turn the "breaking damm" into a metapher. But they were also not clear enough about the acutally happend catastrophy.
I really would like to see the concept of this production given a second try.
btw. I liked it a lot more than fr-046 and it's damn good the have such productions in a demo-compo.

great slideshow :/
Suggestive athmosphere and beautiful pics. Effectively reading the text made image watching difficult, would a superimposed text be better?
(Talking of "slideshows": it would be nice to see fr-05 working again!)

nope
pixtur, It's interesting, I think the minus point you have about the text distracting from the image is actually a plus. As the two are by design in contrast with one another, it feels fitting that there is a tension between one another too :)
whoa! great athmosphere and really hit at the end!
this left a goose skin. great concept, supported by a really interesting soundtrack. we need more of this refreshing ideas! it was so obvious, that many sceners don't like this..
What fr-33:domfries said.
next time make it in powerpoint
the sceond demo of fr after 'konsum' with content, i'd left the ending open, so that the viewer would have to google what its about ... making it more mysterious.
the athmossphere with the text sying everyting is allright vs the dark music that was reflected by the pictures of the broken dam on a nice sunny day, just puuuurfect.
guys, stop making sinus animated jumping cubes and do more like this :)

Photos, concept, scary music, atmosphere. I liked it!
it was a blast. the music was awesome. i knew the photos already, but i really liked the eerie athmosphere it caused.
and it's grown up. good idea cheating this into the demo compo ;)

Sorry. Langweilig :)
everything blends well, setting an ideal atmosphere.
makes a very strong point of the worlds attitude against most things. it`s always too late..

now this was something. thank you.
this one was content with no design...
other one in the compo was ...erm "design" but
with no content...
why not combine the best of both for further
productions?
So I leave with a piggy, coz of the content

great atmosphere.
The athmosspere reminded me a bit of Kasparov..
this prod leaved me disturbed

not my idea of a demo. nice slideshow though
its like Riven, but somewhat earthly.
text/fx sync annoyingly good, and of course, makes a very different and conclusive statement. nice pipes

Not exactly a demo but what the hell? It left me with goosebumps and only one other demo has done that (Kasparov). To achieve that in a slideshow is an achievement. Brilliant soundtrack. BTW - I did a search and couldn't find any info on any dam that collapsed in 1951 where 421 perished. Anyone know about this site?
there's also a very nice german wikipedia article on the topic (no english version of the article though)
"we were on vacation in france and all we managed to do was this demo"...?
I watched it at home and I almost got scared to death.
You guys are sick people.
I just wish you would've used a better font and removed that ugly 60's clickery when the text appears.

this is not demo.
sorry...
sorry...
Wow, finally a demo involving environmental and geotechnical topics.
Maybe one day I won't regret I didn't go for computer science and my uni studies will come handy for demomaking :)

I guess the date has to be fixed (1951 -> 1959).
or maybe to 1941, depending on the mood.
i've found this demo strongly original. there's neither an effect nor a pumping music. but of course, the only effect that should catch the eyes is the sad subject.

Oh yeah, this guy sucks. Actually I don't give a fuck here, it was handed in into the demo compo and the final version will be even better (I've heard). A slideshow (in my definition) has a navigation.now I wonder how a skilled guy like MadenMann get the wrong type of prod, this ain't no demo, this is a plain and simple Slideshow.
Gargaj: the 60`s clickery adds extra tension and atmosphere.. or at least i think so :P
hm, the concept of storytelling with pictures was done before (melwyn's heartshaped box) so i was open for the idea, however the content got quite boring after a while. nice photos (nice angles and detail) but the whole story kinda vanished after a while. Good attempt, but it killed my attentionspan, so sorry.. a piggie :)
It is good that the photos transport a more silent than harmful and only slightly mood with abandoned ruins and a dozey landscape... This increases the contrast to what happened quite a lot, not to mention that the prequel to a breaking damm lasts years, the accident itself a few hours and that things turn back to be more silent pretty soon...
Nice idea .. I liked it...
I wonder how they got the idea for this "production". But apart from being rather strange for a demo/slideshow/whatever-it-is, it surely had an impact on me as it made me searching the net for more information about this tragedy and it's circumstances. The text also became much clearer to me afterwards.
Nice idea but it's much too long and boring.
Good idea and concept, but maybe better presented on a wild compo :(
nice idea, great atmosphere. There were stop fascism demos back in the 90s, so why not something like Malpasset? Open your minds, geez...
belane, for some strange reason i liked the place since my parents first showed it to me a few years ago, probably in 1999 or something. i spend some time there whenever i visit cannes. the idea for this is also a few years old, i just did not have proper equipment to take photos before, since my old digital camera just couldnt bash the bishop.
it is at 43°30'35.73"N 6°45'29.69"E just in case somebody is near cannes and wants to visit it.

Boah. Makes me shiver.
wanna sleep...
During the whole compo I thought. Now the hammer effect comes, now, now and now!? And then it was already over..
pou-art.net? :P
Ghandy: That sounds more like a reason to thumb it down for me. ;)
really fantastic pictures. lacking in the effects department though. ;)
ah, finally, a followup of sorts to fr-05: konsum. :) this photo composition actually has meaning to it, as the photos gradually transition from all-nature to all-man-made. man tries to stop nature, but nature prevails (nature suxx :). the sounds could be interpreted as sounds heard around the dam. this would work well at a gallery room with a projection screen.
just spotted this. great! awesome photos and atmosphere
fuckin' great (and scary).
nice shots
...boring, really...
no.
do better with PowerPoint... :-/
no.
erm
Oh, some pictures and some text. wtf, u all talk about musik, i only hear some strange noises... Something that not even ME would consider as musix :o)
Alright, I now become to hate the thing. Want to see "dead technology" in nature photographed well ? Watch "Stalker" and learn from the master Tarkovsky.
I don't like it. Too slow and boring.
nice.
Beautiful photographs, good music.
Tries really hard but fails equally hard. And what pixtur said.
what? i haven't thumbed down yet?
Great mood builder - even though it is a little on the lazy side, codewise...
demoo!?!?! you speak demooo!?!?! anyone there? DEMOOO!?!?!?
This is not a demo but no thumb down due to the creepy atmosphere.
Rocks, awesome atmosphere which takes you into the realm of photography and imagination, in a place where you mind can wander and finally reach places you would never had imagined to go beforZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzz
Not something that couldn't be done in PowerPoint, but has THE atmosphere.

ah ze memories
The soundtrack fucking owns actually.
