The best way to end a very eventful year: with good friends, partying in a tiny, but cool, record shop in South London! Thank you all for your support and hopefully we'll see more of you in 2025.

Also the #GardenParty is the #altparty that ran a Turnip for President. ❤️
Still energized from #altparty. Hope it happens next year too, maybe could finish a demo once. Only started to relearn 8086 asm for this odd "portable" Amstrad I dusted off and brought (). The teletext thing was fun, I traced a book cover into that format.
I think a lot of people didn't realise that the BSOD entry by #ProximaCentauri at the #AltParty Dynamic Demo compo had dynamic music. That aspect really stood out for me.
Overall I still feel we have yet to see the full potential of the dynamic demo, when art and technical mastery come […]
I did a quick comparison of how the #AltParty was covered on multiple social media platforms and #Mastodon is the clear winner. Even if you dismiss my posts (and some orgs on other platforms), Mastodon still comes out on top.
It seems the hacker and digital arts communities have already really […]
Finally home after the last day of the #AltParty. Everyone did a great job in bringing something wonderful back to life. I really hope there will be more to come.
Cessi, Ravel and I together. After so many years.
One personal highlight for me at the #AltParty was to meet Cessi after many years. She was the runner of the previous iteration of the @AltParty. An amazing coincidence as she wasn’t even aware there was an Alt Party on. She lives in Berlin these days and […]

Today at the #AltParty I will be hosting the #AI Showdown. A live prompting tournament. The tournament is scheduled for 12:00 and happening on the main stage (if we get everything running). I’m looking for participants of all levels so please ping me here or meet me at the info desk at 11:30 (I […]
A digital presentation display shows a colorful 3D model of buildings and objects, along with the text "Haus Design AI is open for venture capital." In the foreground, a group of people is seated at a table with computers.
Well that’s a first. A demo asking for venture capital at the #AltParty. With less than ideal architecture skills :D
Not sure I’d invest though!
The image shows a presentation screen displaying a colorful simulation titled "Voting Behavior Simulation in Progress." It features a grid with blue and red dots, representing two groups: "Justice Movement" and "Workers' Bloc."
#Jumalauta kicks off the #DynamicDemo competition at the #AltParty with a generative voting simulator. The Dynamic Demo format is something unique to the @AltParty and truly shows what can be possible with demos.
#NickMontforte, Professor at MIT, talks about how poetic our language competitions don’t generally exist at demoparties.
Well, except at the @AltParty where that kind of shenanigans are pretty much the norm :)

I was about to groan “Bloody autotune” before realising that well, the whole song is! :D
#AI #AltParty
The image shows a performance space with a large screen displaying text about the experience of being an AI. In the foreground, a performer in a black bodysuit is holding a glowing hoop, while another performer in a beige bodysuit is positioned nearby
A performer in a dark setting is illuminated while manipulating a glowing hoop, with a large blank screen in the background. The audience is partially visible, creating a dramatic atmosphere.
Struggling to get video upload to work so here are some photos of the #AI designed #dance performance at #AltParty.
Here is a snapshot of a contemporary #dance performance written by #AI and performed at the #AltParty.
#demoscene
An ambient room filled with tables and chairs, illuminated by red lighting. Several computers are set up with cords visible, and some individuals are working at their devices. The walls display decorations and drawings.
An artistic installation featuring glowing neon wires and a colorful, illuminated hexagonal sign. The background includes cables and equipment, with a purple light ambiance.
An individual in a black leather jacket looks at a computer setup featuring retro computers and displays. A second person, seated and facing the computer, engages with the screen, which shows colorful graphics. The background displays banners promoting computer culture and retro gaming events.
A performance scene featuring a musician at a control station and two performers, one playing a violin. The setting includes a projection screen displaying visual effects, and an audience observing the event. There are illuminated elements and ambient lighting in the venue.
Some moments from the most unique of demo parties.

The #AltParty gave #JyrkiKasvi a rebirth in AI form (fully with the permission of the family).
It was nice to hear from him again.
An interior view of a spacious exhibition area featuring various displays, including a vintage vehicle, model exhibits, and decorative elements. A person is seen on a mezzanine level overlooking the space, which is illuminated with ambient lighting.
An interior view of a spacious event space with multiple levels. It features seating arrangements, a stage area, and various booths, including one labeled "hacklab.fi." The lighting is dim with red accents.

Every good computer party needs a sound system.
