subject  to  make demos  around lately.

well though, this demo consists of some
extremely  cool  fractals.  They are in
3D.  I have never seen anything like it
before.                                
In addition to their nice and colorfull
fractals  they have  a nice text-typing
routine  which is  one of the best I've
ever seen.

JOCHEN HIPPEL MUSICDISK BY AXIS:   
   

It might not be fair to judge this disk
as a AXIS-demo, coz the main purpose of
it  is  to  present   some   of  Jochen
Hippel's best musics.
Its  only one  demo-screen  with a nice
logo   on  top of  it  and  a  scroller
on  the bottom.  In the  middle you can
select music by moving a little  sprite
around  in  a landscape,  when  you see
a  song  you want  to  hear you  simply
climp to the top of a flower to  select
song. Nice effect  even though the
