The introduction is pure awesomeness, very demoish, colorful, while music sync is playing a big role along the setup of this whole dreaming ambiance. Congrats for this 1st time prod and looking forward to enjoying your next prod!

Was already nice to watch on stream, watching it at home on fullscreen in realtime creates a really great atmosphere.
Love the soundtrack and especially the glitter scene ;)

Made a Youtube capture for it:

Ambient, clean and colorful. Somewhat reminiscent of 2005 era ASD demos.

Holy hell this is just brilliant. Gorgeous rendering, great visuals built from simple elements, fantastic and fairly original (!!!) music, but what really does it for me are the details in the direction; the movements, camera paths the syncing, the list goes on. Not to mention, there are some spiffy effects as well! The colors are a bit cliché at this point but they work, but next time don't play so safe with them!

rulez added on the 2013-02-11 19:21:55 by pista pista
Good choice of music. Well sync'ed for the most part(sometimes a little sudden / jagged). Overall I like the feel, direction and content. The blur / HDR was a little too much at times. Don't care much for the 1px wide lines, as they don't really mesh (no pun intended) well with the rest of the visual style.
rulez added on the 2013-02-11 19:45:22 by xeche xeche
A pleasant surprise from Japan

Total abstraction, music/fx sync to its best!
rulez added on the 2013-02-11 19:50:19 by baah baah
Totally awesome soundtrack! visuals are awesome too, but I didn't like the thin 1 pixel stuff being so jagged in the beginning, that should have been post-processes somehow. Do you watch these on CRT monitors in Japan or what? Flatscreen pixels are ugly. And could you at least hide the frigging mouse pointer, please!

But awesome stuff.

some of the camera movements could've been more thought, IMO, but that's a minor fault.

maybe the content & ideas could have more impact in a slightly shorter demo (duration).

Some effects are lovely.

It's not a bad production at all. But still I don't feel like thumbing it up, sorry.

Phoenix: if you want to see unwarranted european fapping over japanese demos, head over to this instead. There is little unwarranted praise for this prod, and the fact that it's from Japan is irrelevant.

The fact that this is from Japan is 100% irrelevant at least for me as i usually dislike everything coming from the east and especially the western hip towards east. But this one i love (and old jrpg's).

True, as a first group release, it is deserving of more praise than normal. I still think it's a little overrated. Maybe expectations are lower than normal in January and February, with fewer releases?

Why would anyone ask him such a thing? O_o Seriously go make some demo instead of bashing those who do.

While the first two months in a year are known to be the post-oscar noms / dumping group season in Hollywood (with few and mostly shitty releases), the demoscene is doing just fine. The Datastorm output alone is pretty impressive this year. :)

Good direction and a couple of fresh ideas, but the overall look is not really groundbreaking enough to shout for miracle. Keep it up.

The whole is better than the sum of the parts, probably because of the music. I would not call it awesome, but it was good enough for a thumb :)

Fantastic demo and sync. At one point I wondered a bit about the suddenly disappearance of the hexagon objects, a little detail which should prove again that I think its a fantastic demo

OH F....
Init OpenCL...
CL Failed: clGetDeviceIDs( m_clPlatform, CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU, 1, &m_clDevice, NULL ) - Creating CL Context...

Any idea what is going on here? (Win7-x64, NV GT540M, driver version 314.07)

if rhis demo use open cl this runs only on amd/ati graphic card,because nvidia don't support it.your error is clDevice =null
null=not dectected open cl on your graphic card.
very well designed!

loving it!!
the nice concept of kick-ass effects on realtime, plus the cool concept of trying to show us something consistent and synched.
You did it!!
rulez added on the 2013-02-28 09:57:50 by JaK JaK
I so wish I could run this realtime on my ATI machine, it does run, but theres stuff missing and some rendering bugs :(

Never the less, as I upvoted before a very sophisticated demo which I love and will re-watch quite a few times :)

For those with opencl issues, install, or re-install (mine was corrupted, had to re-install) the opencl cpu sdk from intel (opencl CPU driver only). Choose the 2012 version, not the opencl 1.2 2013 beta (crash in a lot of stuff).

If Geek3D GPU caps viewer opecl demo in CPU mode works (go to opencl tab and select "Intel(R) OpenCL" for your opencl device then run a CL CPU demo) then the demo should work.

Yes, it seems this demo use opencl on the CPU and not the GPU. My GPU was at 9% usage for the entire duration of the demo, no way opencl runs on the GPU.

I have to say I'm not that big a fan of the music, but the direction is simply flawless. I'd have a hard time finding another prod with this tight connection between sound and visuals, and that's really a brilliant achievement. All in all, a really great prod!

Color me a fan. I've been looking for demos like this, and Artifacts didn't disappoint at all; it achieves the goals it sets out for without fail. More!

this was my favorite demo of 2013.

Wow. If I had another CDC, this would be it. It's got screens with lots of "raining" objects, particle clouds, design (lots of design!), and nice music (to which it is very well synched). It also ran native resolution (whoo!) and, unlike previous reports, the cursor appears to have been hidden. :)

I updated the link btw with a patched version that now works on both NVIDIA and AMD. There is, however, seemingly a bug Noby spotted with the particles in one scene that just stand still that I couldn't track down that easily.
