You already have some coding experience, but want to learn making demos for the #C64? And at the same time watch some of the best at it at @transmission64.com ? Join us at #Odenwilusenz for our #demoscene workshop, November 28-29 (Pre-registration required)! www.echtzeitkultur.org/2026/cyberde...

Thanks to everyone participating and organising our latest #graffathon at Altes Loeblager in Bern! Check out the report and results here: www.echtzeitkultur.org/2026/report-...

And secondly: the amazing GRADE event we got to organise with the #CookieCollective two weeks ago at le DOC Paris! Thanks again to everyone who participated, contributed and made this event possible! www.echtzeitkultur.org/2026/grade-i...

First, a brief report about our visit and #demoscene presentation at chaos:jetzt - with the uplifting outlook at a new generation of coders and tinkerers getting more excited about low-level languages and oldschool devices, making devices their own again: www.echtzeitkultur.org/2026/report-...
