Note that this seminar is not intended to be a full-fledged scene history session. The slides for this seminar can be downloaded here.
Writing/Building a 3D geometry engine from scratch
Qubix/Architects
The visualisation of animated 3D scenarios is one of the most prominent disciplines in the Demoscene. It takes the artist’s imagination of a virtual world into the real world by the means of projection. With today’s computers, the graphics card does most of the hard work, hidden by multiple layers of a graphics API. This seminar shows how a 3D geometry engine is built from scratch, on an 8-bit computer. The rotated wireframe cube serves as “Hello World”. Featuring the necessary and indispensible info about the involved math, the seminar goes from basics in 2D and the specification of the scenery in a higher level language to full 3D with scaling, translation, rotation and projection, all of them in machine code. Basic principles like the intercept theorem, angle sum and difference identities, multiplication by squares and auxiliary ones pave the way to 3D graphics on a CPU without built-in floating point support. Different display techniques like dot plots, xor line drawing, double buffering and their relative merits are discussed. For both the interested newcomer and as a refresher for the experienced coder, the seminar also gives an outlook about what is necessary to advance beyond the scope of the featured wireframe cube demo, especially hidden line removal, filled vectors, lighting models and perspective correct texture mapping.

The documentary aims to capture an authentic and honest portrayal of this unique culture and community, as well as the significance of the hobby to its members. The documentary was filmed at Finnish demo events during the summer and autumn of 2024 and will serve as a culturally valuable record, making the demoscene visible to more than just its members. The movie is in Finnish with English Subtitles. Length is approx. 30min The screening will take place in the Seminar Area on Sunday, April 20th at 13:30 CEST in the Seminar Area.
Behind the Scenes Tours
Saturday, 2025-04-19 CEST
If you'd like to take a look behind the scenes to find out where all the orga magic happens, there will be Q&A tours of various orga areas held by the responsible organizers. Prior sign-up for these is not necessary - the times they will take place can be found in the timetable and the start of each tour will also be announced at the party place individually. Meetup point for each tour will be the infodesk. Watch out for a person holding an orange flag! (Only exception is the “Seminars, Recording, Postprocessing” tour - go to the seminar room directly!) Information: for the Beamteam tour, two slots are offered, as the space at their working area is quite limited. So, if you can’t catch a spot one the first tour, there’s a second chance.
