FREAX - The demoscene history book
Ever wondered who wrote the first demos? Who was the first to crack a game,
or who invented nowadays' beautiful effects seen in demos? When and how was
the scene born, and who were the first pioneers to pave the road to nowadays'
superproductions?
Ever wanted to see a book about the history of the demoscene?
I mean a printed book, not another website. Not another book about hackers,
and surely not another try to explain the essence of the scene for the lame
general public. A book about the scene for sceners, covering the story of
all platforms: the C-64, the Amiga, the PC and also smaller scenes, like
consoles, Sinclairs, the Apple and so on. From the beginning to present
days, covering every single bit of the great adventure, a narrative history
with interviews, memories, stories, colorful pictures...
A book titled FREAX.
After five years of intense researching, the product is starting to shape.
Read more about it on this website; read a sample chapter and perhaps you
can even find a way to help me. This is something special, something
different: something no one ever tried in this depth.
