Italy, providing a wireless webcam service. Pictures are now online at

In a computing world in which hardware and software have exploded beyond
imagination, where lone pioneers have been displaced by billion-dollar
investments, where programming manuals that used to ship with affordable
home computers have been replaced by multi-volume and constantly changing
SDKs which are beyond the reach of the average user, the demo scene
continues to remind us that writing software can still be a sublime
fusion of expression and creativity, of technology and art, a medium in
which the germ of talent can be discovered and nourished, where
individuals exchange ideas and compete with others, but, as they build
universes of which they are to be in full control, are also confronted
most of all in an intimate challenge with their inner selves. Thank you,
friends at Spoletium, for keeping the flame alive! (ps)
