We are back online. Thanks for everyone in the #php community for the extra work!

Heads up: demoparty.net is moving servers

On my way to @deadline-berlin.bsky.social! See you in Berlin.

For @evoke.eu, I created 3 #opensource tools to run our bigscreens. The core is Billedapparat: a screen director for slides, schedules & social posts. Check the repo—might be useful for your #demoparty! github.com/potibm/bille... #demoscene #golang

Gorgeous prices #evoke2026

Final compo block at @evoke.eu #evoke2026

Done @evoke.eu #evoke2026

The @evoke.eu organizers: heat resistance is king.

That might be among the (many) worst ideas in @evoke.eu history: doing the container cleanup and inventory on the hottest day of the year. Lets go! 🥵💪

Temperatures are rising, so we‘re bringing you the coolest news: Our website is online! evoke.eu Next steps towards your happiness (and ours): Read through the compo rules, tell us that you’re coming and treat yourself to a ticket and a shirt! Can’t wait to welcome you back☮️🫰 #evoke2026 #demoscene

What a wonderful surprise from our friends from Haujobb! We support this message. Make a demo! 💾✌️

Heute Abend in den Räumlichkeiten des C4: Die besten Demos der @revision-party.bsky.social 2026 – @t0b1.bsky.social zeigt die Highlights beim OpenChaos. www.dkev.org/de/2026/04/o...

Sign-up and first information are now live! Save the date and start working on your productions! 2026.revision-party.net

Modern infrastructure can serve history too. By rebuilding our tooling, the @evoke.eu websites from www.evoke.eu/2000/ – www.evoke.eu/2018/ stay online and preserved. Together with last year’s update of the Evoke Archive (archive.evoke.eu), this is about keeping digital culture accessible.

On our way to @dream2101.bsky.social #demoscene

Colscene (the #demoscene mailinglist for the wider Cologne area) is back. With a fresh list and a new homepage. www.colscene.de

Get your calendars and glitter markers out, its time to SAVE THE DATE for our next AHK encounter! 🗓️ 21st-23rd August 2026 2026.evoke.eu More Infos, as usual, after Easter. We need some time to hibernate! Are you coming? #demoscene #evoke2026

Tobias Heim stellt im Rahmen des OpenChaos im C4 am 25. September die (subjektiv) besten und schönsten Beiträge der diesjährigen Evoke vor: für alle, die sie verpasst haben sollten. Oder sie gerne noch einmal sehen möchten. #demoscene #evoke2025 #openchaos www.dkev.org/de/2025/09/o...

Some might say the sky is the limit, but with a team like ours, we went beyond. One month ago, Evoke lit up the skies with the first drone show in #demoscene history. Thanks to everyone who made it happen! Full video here: youtu.be/u_EHFf49mNA

finally (after spending a lot of time for @evoke.eu ) I finally managed to fix the demozoo import for @demoparty.net. switching from a scrapinghub crawler to fetching data from their sql dump.

How freaking nice was that? Thanks to Lang AG, Kulturhof Kalk, @newemka.bsky.social and Subdream and all the helping orgos! #droneshow #evoke2025
