The tunnel at the end is lovely. Must must must get around to upgrading one of my C16s to 64k so I can run this sort of thing on it.

lft mentioned in his "Poems for Bugs" talk that this C64 synchronisation trick is very clever. He's right! (Set up the CIA's timer registers so that they form a jump instruction, where the target address depends on the position within the line...)

Cruisin 3 by Abyss edit / delete

A demo producing simultaneous output on a TV and oscilloscope showing the video signal. There's a pretty good explanation of how this (probably!) works in the comments: set the scope to sync on the composite sync pulses, and zoom in on (say) grey values 1-30, then you can draw 625 arbitrary lines on the scope while still having them nearly invisible on the composite monitor. Cute. He ought to do one that also displays shapes on a vectorscope next time!

His "Robotic Liberation" demo for the VIC-20 is *really* impressive. Some technical stuff on the VIC-20 hardware too.
