Demos - Awesome Programming Challenges

Do any of you know what a demo is?  I'm not talking about limited versions of video games.  When I say DEMO, I mean... GRRR!!!  It's hard to explain, but think of it like this:  imagine a really high tech video game.  Now take away the player and any plot it may have, add a bunch of professional programmers, and soup up the graphics.  That's a demo.  Basically, they're like digital graffiti - rival "demogroups" compete to one-up each-other in the most insane graphics demonstration in the known universe.  THAT'S a demo.

I make them.

That's right, hold your applause, hold it, stop, STOP APPLAUDING FOR CRIPES SAKE!!!  sorry  XD.

Anyways, the point is, I host a gallery of demos on scratch.  It's located here: http://scratch.mit.edu/galleries/view/115780.

If you want to show the world that you're 1337, PLEASE add something to it.  Oh, and check out FADE.  I spent a month on it, but you'll need a REALLY good GPU for it to sync with the music (so far only with a iMac).

Also, for a Wikipedia article about these things, go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demo_(computer_programming)
