     Copied By Twain Pain/Vicious

The  Amiga  computer  is  still  going
strong,  and  never  before  the Amiga
owners  have  been as active as at the
moment.   One  of  the  reasons is the
release of some new Amiga models, that
really  pushes  the  number  of Amigas
sold.
   A lot of Amiga owners display their
artistic skills in demos, as they call
them.   A demo is a program build upon
pictures,  music  and graphic effects,
and  it's  in  these  demos,  that the
possibilities   of  the  Amiga  really
comes to an expressions - demos can be
regarded  as  state  of  the  art  for
computer  coding  and are in many ways
similar to music videos.
   Demo  groups  of  young people make
the  demos,  these  people are coders,
graphicians   and   musicians,  and  a
couple  of times every year the groups
join  demo  competitions,  where  they
present  their  productions  for  each
other  and  the  remaining audience at
the  gathering.  The local demo groups
where  the  gathering  is taking place
organize the arrangement.  Besides the
demo   competition   a  lot  of  other
activities   takes  place  at  a  demo
party,  such  as graphics competition,
music   competition,   computer  games
competition, presentation of (computer
made)  films  and  other  productions,
concerts  and  exchange  of  ideas and
contacts of course.
   THE PARTY is an international demo-
party  taking  place in Denmark.  This
year  for  the third time, and the two
previous times it has been the biggest
in   the  world  with  the  number  of
visitors  in 1991 to be 1250, and 2500
in  1992.   This year between 2500 and
3000  young  people  are  expected  to
visit the party.
   The  organizers  are satisfied with
the fact that the party can attract so
many  people  from  the  hole  world -
about  2/3  of  the  visitors are from
outside   Denmark,  and  this  has  an
international     impact     on    the
arrangement.  Most of the visitors are
