Buenzli is a so called demoparty in Winterthur/Switzerland, where artists from all over the world compete against each other with kick-ass realtime graphics and calculated images. Artists and groups from the demoscene follow a long tradition, originating back in the 1980s.
The demoscene is a worldwide non-commercial network of creative minds involved in the making of so called 'demos'. Demos are computer generated music clips that show what kind of graphic and sound effects can really be done by using high-end computer hardware to its full potential.
While being limited to various platforms such as C64, Atari, Amiga and the PC for a very long time, Buenzli 19 is the first demoparty that is opening their competitions for entries made with your beloved framework, PROCESSING.
The WILD COMPETITION is where we want to see realtime and interactive software in any way. Go and film your installation. Do it live on stage. This is your playground! The DEMO COMPETITION allows non-interactive but realtime entries made with PROCESSING aswell. We are really looking forward to see traditional demos compete with unique entries made with PROCESSING.
As the true oldschoolers-at-heart we are, we breath technology and continous development. This is why we strongly encourage everyone to compete and come to Buenzli 19 -
