As far as I know, it was also their last :)
Nice multipart demo, some oldskool stuff and some brilliant ideas. All this and few superb little soundtracks amke it a fun nostalgic time.

Well, they made a report, a 4k intro, and a BBS intro after it, but those aren't demos so I guess you're right :).
Loved the music in the intro part (I've since ripped it :). The textured city and "mathematics" parts were way ahead of their time.
On the downside, it unpacked, loaded, and erased files between each part (slow), and needed > 600k RAM. So good luck running it today..

I wish I could run this demo again on my Pentium. I don't remember many things from it but it surelly had some nice fx for it's time..
hmmz.. all I remember is the decrunching between parts, which really ruined the flow of the demo...
Nice oldie...

Watched it again some days ago, rocks. Too bad, some parts were dropped, don't know why.
Little fun story: When i was in school i had a math teacher called "Berger". One day i went to him and asked if he could help me out with ray-torii intersections (i guess it was around '96) and i explained to him that i'm playing around with raytracing and he told me his SON should be able to help me out because he was doing similar things for years in a group called "Xography" and his name is Daniel Berger. What a funny accident :)
pailes: cool story. :)
To close the circle: Daniel Berger = Yaka(chu) of Xography.

To break it, \o/ to a great demo for its time.
Really great demo. Only the dance part is a lot better in witan's fact of life i think..
Apart from the loading screens I really liked this demo back then and watched it several times. Yet today I can only remember a few parts, with the best one being the 3D-city flight.
Pretty cool demo. Coder colors maybe? :-)
cool
thumbs for the flight scene, the tunnel and the nice loading screen. the rest is okish
uhm...no...
quite impressive for it's time, but why must the colors suck that hard ..
never was able to run this completely (some effects are just skipped for no reason), but thumbs up for effort and textured stuff :)
demo from childhood
Oh damit, so it's going to be 30 years next month.

It contains some effects that were real inventions
when the demo was released.
Unfortunately it is un-timered and runs waaay too fast on modern machines.
