Evoke 2014 - August 8 - 10 in cologne/köln

category: parties [glöplog]

These articles are magnitudes better than the article form the girl that's usually responsible for writing stuff about animals...

By the way, I got one S sized t-shirt from the prizegiving, usually I wear M - but the shirt fits pretty well, M would have been way to large. Are the t-shirt sizes maybe a bit more american than european? :)

the brandnew heise.de article is quite good, i think: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Demo-Party-Evoke-2014-Eine-Party-voller-Einladungen-2290787.html

Yes, I like! That's the real thing. Written by Mr. Himmelein, Senior Editor for c't^Heise. He was not able to attend Evoke but he is following the scene for quite some time and did a lot of research by himself on Monday after the party. I exchanged several emails with him before and after Evoke. A good journalist and trustworthy person, imho :)

Yes, indeed. I like that article!

numtek: Thanks!

las: I asked for an L shirt at the entrance but apparently got M, fits perfectly as well.

numtek/Saga Musix: Are those renoise renders good enough to be uploaded to scene.org for archival purposes?

Ha, that makes me imagine a demoparty report in the style of a David Attenborough nature documentary.

"The sceners have migrated for thousands of miles to congregate at this one spot. It may not seem too inviting - shut away from natural light amongst discarded pizza boxes - but it is here, as night falls, that the sceners will take turns to produce colourful displays to win the approval of their peers. Particularly impressive displays from the alpha males will prompt the distinctive mating call of 'ah-MEE-gah'."

@tomoya: As soon as someone adds ID3-tags to them yes they won't get any better.
I did a normal render to .wav (I've could do them again on a slower speed) and used FlicFlac to compress the .wav to mp3 using 320kbps no VBR so I assume the are as perfect as can be. All they need is an ID3-tag.

I'll listen to them today and I'll see if I can spot any errors.

Well, adding ID3 tags is not an issue for me since everything is in the results file :) So yeah, please let me know when you check them, I appreciate your work!

oh my god, can we please hire him to actually make a documentary in this style about the scene? :D

I think the seeds of a wild entry have been sown. I dread it, as it shall probably be in the same vein as the Sceneboy Love Calendar. Heh.
