There seems to be a low-quality preview version online.
always been curious about this. its readable thanks :)
Thanks, it is a start. It is readable so that is something. Since the orginal e-book is lost for ever, I'll settle for the preview.
@numtek: why even bother wasting your time on pompous bullshit like this?
After I read "watermark" on the first page of this thread I threw up in my mouth and whoever wrote it: come get your punch in the face, it's free of charge.
This is a free community.

I was surprised how slender this book actually is. From a brief look at the preview, it seems more like a one-off magazine issue.
Also, looks like demoscenebook.com has some new high-priced items on sale. ;)

^ essential demo making tools :D
No valves :(
I still have one of the first copies, which were printed on wrong materials. Very nice except a bit stiff (too heavy paper was used :D )
how is it that with every fibre in my being is capitalist yet I feel it's sort of awkward to write commercial literature on/about the demoscene and it's merits/techniques et cetera
go write an e-manifest about it, niels... and charge 10 euros for it!
It would be 1 sheet of paper, "Manifest rule #1: be a man. - Niels"
Surefire bestseller.
Surefire bestseller.
and legend, the paper was too heavy? you sure you're getting enough proteins? :)
(I had a snappier line in mind but then I remembered something about respect and hypermmx.xm and well..)

First guess would be roid rage.
superplek :D
well yes, you know 80 gram paper is normal and then there's like 140 grams and so on... (eh)

What happened to it?
I'm the proud owner of the printed book ;-) It really starts of good explaining how the scene was organized (swappers, crackers, 0-day warez, being elite, FREE, etc, etc) Nice! So in that perspective I fully understand why people ask for a FREE ebook version since the 1000 copied are sold out years ago. It's 2021...please release the ebook before it disappears.
my Novation Peak synthesizer is resting on a copy of https://www.amazon.de/Kunst-Code-Maschine-Computer-Demoszene-Medientheorie/dp/3837617491 (a good book) :-)
