scary :D
Really nice ambience, and stunning tech & visuals!
best O_o--b
Great demo. Soundeffects are very well done. Congratulations. This made a difference in the compo!
Interesting concept, and rather well executed. One of the highlights in the compo.
Nice idea, look like some logic puzzle scenes for me.
Great execution and very eye-candy.

it's good to see something different sometimes :)
Stunning play with emotions, absolutely over-the-top render quality, love it! Too bad the projector didn't do it justice.
I'VE HAD IT WITH THESE MOTHER FUCKING SPHERE ON THIS MOTHER FUCKING PLANE!!!1
What Decipher said!
clearly for me the second best demo of the compo (after fairlight & cncd). It doesn't show much but what's there is of the highest quality.
A lot of influence from vimeo videos I imagine? not a bad thing though...

I like the ambiance, nice use of physics !
What a great way to show this kind oft effects without falling into the trap of being a coders demo! Absolutely SUPERB stuff!
Grats to gloomy and the whippers!

Weird, but in a good way :)
Atmospheric, fresh, great!
Terribly pretentious, but looks really good.
Strange and creepy. And good.
It has some atmosphere and the visuals are good.
Best.
What Korvkiosken said
Moody, weird and different.. Liked it!
Original with good looks and great mood. I love it!
Nah
youtube plz Win XP here =\
Great atmosphere in that one :)
That was awesome! Great atmosphere and a really original way of presenting a demo. I liked the use fo sound effects too - should be done more in demos.
Looks amazing and I love the soundtrack
Boring
such a very cool and well performed piece, the well crafted minimalism in each scene is thought out well enough to provoke ones own thought and induces a real sense of being in a vast yet empty space, and the sound design is just excellent, instant favourite gonna watch it again now :)
oh yeah!
I like the greeting from Jeckell to Hyde's mom.. it's so sweet! Thumb!
by the way:
I hope these effects are just leftovers.. excluded from the demo to end all demos by the mighty gods: Andromeda..
Ad Astra add infinitum! Looking forward to the new Andromeda demo someday.. Nexus 7 was just the beginning!
Oh and Lord Helmet approved it ofcourse raytraced scroller or not in the new demo :)
Next to this I second Navis and Wade's comments above..

creeeeeepy
Not what I expected... But it was really enjoyable. Great work!
I loved it.
I enjoyed this one!. The movements and the lighting was cool.
YES!
I love the atmosphere in this demo, and the sounds work very well. Great demo! I enjoyed it a lot.
brilliant!
Came here expecting magic ranting about Andromeda, was not disappointed!
Also, kick ass demo lads! Loved the wood popping part!

weird, freaky & cool.
Thanks for your beautiful comments, everyone.
@Okkie - thanks! Since you seem to be thinking "my, my. What a jewel of a demo by my very favorite Romans. I only wish they used more cowb... I mean WOOD!", I left a debugging feature still active just for you; CLICK ON WOOD. MORE WOOD APPEARS!!!

Delightfully strange!
highly inspiring! fresh stuff as usual
Liked this - a nice surreal demo :)
There were some pretty nice effects here, and the atmosphere was definitely cool and unusual. It didn't make me smile, though.
fresh and brillant! nice work! :)
Simple is beautiful !
I liked it a lot! Congrats Mr. Hyde :)

Epiphanic.
WOW !
if only the last 5 seconds of music was used for the rest of the demo :)
the "red sphere with mirrors"-scene was quite slow here.

thumb up for the concept and the work, but I'm not 100% convinced, because of the not-smooth-enough rendering and the not-that-great sync in some parts.
Hyde: haha, awesome! :D
failed on win7 x64 & Ati radeon 5850.
@bermudatatooine: Would you please send me some more info about the crash(?) to hyde at andromeda.no? I would be happy to look into it. Thanks in advance.
Liked it a lot! As Zavie said: just WOW! Dead Roman = Andromeda.. I just understood :)
lol @ magic.
also, concept pulled off very nicely.

i quite liked it!
great concept
totally rocks! awesome audiovisual work.
but between some screens the music stops while screen is black (for example between all first screens without spheres). it literally halts - no reverb like in some other scenecuts. don't know whether it's a flaw or builtin - for me however it destroys the ambience in the beginning.

Wow! Never expected this!!
There was Nordic awesomeness braging and ranting all over revision for some hours after it was shown on the bigscreen.
But hey, being a Nordic Egomaniac ranting moron in the drunk is all I know how to do :D
AWESOME Guys, I expect a re-run of this on Solskogen (Played at Lug00ber Volume ;)

@bermudatatooine: Please compare http://vimeo.com/22878274 to what is shown on your screen when running the .exe. I suspect that what you are considering a fail/crash here is the fact that the first five scenes are empty (without moving objects in them). This is by design.
Original concept, great soundtrack and all in all a great prod. I love it.
I like.
liked both demo and ranting in a txt file =)
Oh man, this was a real cool idea. The absolute lack of transitions actually worked really great. You don't see that very often. More interesting experiments like this, please :).
Fukkin RULEZ!!! Totally love it's ambience. I had similar ideas - to do something that feels more like an experimental short movie than a demo.
i love this scene with the touching lights :)
I love it.

That's 100% intentional, and there _is_ reverb there - just very little. The point was indeed to have those hard breaks there between the opening parts, and have more flowing cuts later (driven by the sound). I'm sorry you feels that breaks the mood, but the fact it that it was meant to be that harsh exactly to _establish_ the mood.but between some screens the music stops while screen is black (for example between all first screens without spheres). it literally halts - no reverb like in some other scenecuts.
DIBS ON THE REMIX
First I thought: Boring.
But then it started to "function" somehow.

mfkn balls on the plane, mfkn 30MB download?!
oh yea, didn't notice touching balls at first 
impressive, but short
A strange beast, but I really liked the creepy ambiance.
love the atmosphere! nice tech and execution.
Very nice rendering, is that overdone SSDO or what? Love the atmo-sphere (lol)
Kickass sound vs visuals interaction.
What pommak said. Great visuals, great composition, great atmosphere and lovely sound design. However the physics felt "lacking" in places. Or maybe it was just vimeo acting odd (there's no way in hell i can run this on any of my laptops)
Great athmosphere with perfect use of sound effects... Good stuff!
This is great work, the relationship between sound and visuals has always been important in the scene but this is one of the few demos that really study that aspect.
Very well done minimalism
A pretty hefty blogpost about the demo can be found here: http://blog.subsquare.com/behind-the-spheres-on-the-plane
Really liked it, high quailty rendering with simple content \o/ - and thanks for the blog-post, much appreciated to settle my curiosity! :)
nice diversification
Cool. I specially like the wooden thing.
Lovely left field, beautiful rendering.
not very
I. Love. This. Style.
Less is so much more!
Less is so much more!
simply: wow!
Original concept !
awesome!
somewhat original, using sound effects and ambiance rather than rhythmic music, but it remains short and simple. i'm curious to see more, though.

Dead Roman = Andromeda
omg, I just realized that :D
this prod looks so flawless, like its not realtime but prerendered.
all in all very nicely done, only thing that i noticed was that the physics didnt look too real at times.

Awesome rendering quality!
awesome image quality. atmosphere. a really special experience on the big screen
I will put in a order for lug00ber to show this on bigscreen at Solskogen as well!!
(_only_ problem with this is that if I now use sound the same way I will be called a copycat. Even thought my plan was to hide bad effects instead of good effect :( )

Yay for original concept and great execution. Somehow, the sync could've been better in the tabletennis-ish scene, but overall, really cool.
this should be taken as a lesson in how to use very simple elements (spheres! on a plane!) and make something great with them through production quality and direction. probably my favourite demo from tg (and this easter).
Great atmosphere, thanks!
just great!
Watching this on the big screen with its awkward silence between parts was intense.
Way too pretentious for what it does.
Atmospheric :)
Great work.
"I've had it with these motherfucking Spheres on this motherfucking Plane!"
Surprised no one else said it :D

Dude, 10th comment!!
Also, I like this demo more and more. Really dig the sound design and relatively known and simple ideas being used differently!
Well done you Norwegian cowboys!
Well done you Norwegian cowboys!
i'm guessing the inspiration for the direction and mzk was this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qn4FuuUH_C4
very nice, i liked the scenes with the spheres a lot, and the thetraedra.

Thumb up for the physics, but i didn't like the atmosphere...
iq: actually, I don't think I've ever seen that one before - it was awesome. :)
The inspiration for "Spheres on a plane" came from a lot of motion graphics pieces, but if I had to pick one single one (especially for the sound-design) it would have to be "No Keyframes" - http://www.vimeo.com/16658961

gloom: really great work, the sound design add a lot too the nice visual.
Indeed, the soundscape is what really "did it" for me in this demo. I hope to see more of this style in the future.
Original, but I'm still not convinced, and I don't like the atmosphere.
@okkie yep, you're right! Missed that one, anyway, 'tis good, hope to see more
Somehow I like these kinds of demos (like ballet dancer by mfx for example)
For that reason I made a YT Video Rip ;)

looks soo crisp and sharp and hiqual. thanks
Definite thumbs up. I love the music and it works so well with the visual style. The physics look a bit off, but who cares. Beautiful!
This has a very attractive nature.
UUhhh..
Absolutely love this. I just watched it at 2:30am having not seen it when it was released, and it made me jump in a couple of places! Just fantastic atmosphere.
great direction
very well deserved Kusma Award.
very brave design with deliberate choices, I wanted another 3 or 4 surreal tense scenes.
very, very entertaining
oozes style and professionalism

omg love this!
Excellent!
We need more stuff like this, we really do!
nice.
Weird shit. But kinda cool, too.
pretty, nice lighting, nice physics

haven't commented yet ?
Flawless.
I love it.

I love it.
Simply amazing.
WOW, this is awesome. Lovely renderer, great design and sound design. If I have one nitpick it's the blackscreen delay between scenes seems fractionally long.
sick shit
Somehow missed it the first time 'round. Very well done!
Lovely and very stylish. Great :)
Different and atmospheric.
excellence
Mind blowing! Love it from start to end :)
that´s different!
just excellent!
just excellent!
so full of tension. great experience.
boring as hell. at least the colors were ok
Immersive :)
A few too many full stop in the beginning but everything else is good.
Love this. Render quality is great. Looks very much like one of those pre-rendered arty videos from vimeo. I mean that as a compliment.
Still great! Someday I want to make something like this too :)
some scenes worked some didn't
No.I just don't like it.
no bullshit
If Lynch got his hands on a D3D example source.
Captivating!
I like the mirrors
I love the mood created by this demo.
Great!
ok
Nice experiment you did.
