putting the pieces together. Its our scene! lets make things happen...
Assigns e-mail got caught in traffic once again but since Nephoo
had sent a little wonderfull review of falcons gravity98 tune... I didnt
had much trouble! :
Other than that, Demojournal gets nostalgical all over again, this time

Psychic Symphony:
Sad enough, following demonews and traxweekly, the whole Hornet
archive is going to disappear! Leaving behind a trail of demoscene memories,
good and bad moments, either by the ratings, your first touch with a REAL
archive, the infamous gigantic musical archive or plain and simply the crew
behind it all. I am sure i speak for the whole demoscene when i say:
We will miss www.hornet.org! :
Besides that, The convention 1998 demoparty is probably being held
on norway this weekend. www.convention.com
Hum... Watching one of those Mtv videos where they have some
information on these little squares. In the latest video from Sash! it is
written that Sascha the skinny guy on the video on his home likes listening
to music from Miss Saigon. Hum... I wonder...

------ 5.Interview of the week ----------------------------------------------
Long awaited e-mail interview with Adok/Hugi by Psychic Symphony
1. introduce your humble person to the world! name, phone number, credit
card access code, shoe size, hair style! the normal...
Yep. My name is Claus-Dieter Volko, handle Adok, group Hugi. Phone
number is 004316652249, as if anyone would ever call :, credit card
access code is not available coz I have no credit card, shoe size is
about 41 size 8 as far as I know, and the hair style is not special,
pretty short hair, dark fair. And although you didnt ask for it, Ill
reveal to you that I was born on October 8th, 1983, in Vienna,
Austria.
2. what is it you do again?
In real life I am a pupil. As regards the scene, I am the main editor
of the Hugi diskmag and organize the Hugi Size Coding Competitions.
3. that sounds important :P is it as hard as it sounds?
Maybe. At least it takes pretty much time. For instance, I spent all
my summer-holidays working on Hugi 12.
4. is it worth all that trouble?
Definitely. Its cool to see the result of your work afterwards, and
its nice to read the readers opinions - both positive and negative
ones - and what influence your mag has on the scene. :
5. how do you see the future of the diskmag scene and the demoscene in
general?
The future of the diskmag scene is very positive. It is better now
than half a year ago. We have a big magazine again guess which :,
several other mags have been released or started, and newsletters like
yours try to become established in the scene. Lets just advertise the
magazines more and try to get the readers more active, and everything
will be good again.
Concerning the demoscene, many old sceners have less time now because
of their studies or their professional career. But thats just the
natural development. Anyhow fresh blood has to come into the scene.
6. you think we are drifting away from the old days then?
Maybe. In any case the scene has changed, as many articles in diskmags
describe in details. But those changes are not necessarily bad, and in
fact some changes brought the scene advantages. For instance, without
the Internet the scene would certainly be much smaller now. Whether
it would be less active, is another question. However, the answer is
probably yes, too.
7. enough on serious stuff! think fast!
first demo
I dont remember which was the first demo I saw. One of the first
demos I still remember, however, is Crystal Dreams 2.
best demo
I cant tell you which is the best demo but only give you my
subjective point of view, i.e my favourite demo. And that always
changes from time to time, so I wont tell you anything because it
could be outdated within a week.
3d
3d is okay.
oldskool
Still cool.
newcomers
Should be supported and guided into the scene.
elite
As being active in the demo scene requires special talents, we all or
at least most of us are in some way elite. If you cant think
logically, you cant become a coder, for example.
aliens
A standard question that has appeared in each demojournal interview so
far...
8. you want to shout out to anyone? family, friends...
Greetings to all my contacts, the whole scene and all I know in real
life.
9. what about just advertise for something like hugi12 :P
Why not? : If you havent done it yet, get Hugi 12 at
http://home.pages.de/hugidownload/ and enjoy reading 1.8 mbyte of
articles!
10. well! thats it! time for the smoke! was it good for you as it was for
me?
I hope so. :
Now I have experienced myself that answering an interview form is
harder than a live interview. :
PS- Hey man... I possed the questions thinking on what you would have
answered! I did them on the spot! As soon as you agreed with the
interview. REALLY! I enjoy more interviewing people over irc because
of these problems exactly but life is unfair!
It also depends a lot on the mood of both the interviewer and interviewee
along with their kind of relation. If 2 persons know each other remotly
even, its a lot easier to interview and to be interviwed then if they
are completly strangers to each other.
Theres an IMHO missing somewhere above so ill just drop it on this last
sentence!
------ 6.Demo of the week ---------------------------------------------------
Hyperventilation by Byterapers inc.
Code: Mr.Sex and Gurdan
Graphics: Mistral, Mike and Jate
Music: Yolk Legend / CNCD
Second place at Remedy98 demoparty! Very tight competition between
this little beauty and first place Destination Goatland which is a beautyfull
windows demo! Actually there even was a little fuzz about it, now everything
is ok so im not gonna bring it up! :
Anyways, more then 10 years old Byterapers kick major behind with
this ABBA feeling demo counting as their 4th on PC. Sexadelic being released
at assembly 1998... These guys are more then veterans! Back from the C64 days!
Code is simply brilliant! Very good 3D with some flares, crossfadings
and 2D effects. Awesome 3D transparent objects like metaballs!
Graphics-wise its brilliant! Loads of quality graphics everywhere.
Attention to those ABBA gfx aswell! :
Sound by the gods of sound Yolk and Legend! What else could you ask
for? Phat beats with sample from a very own ABBA tune which fits in
BRILLIANTLY well on the whole demo!
Design is definitly the finishing touch to this masterpiece. Music
tweaks are fully syncronised and produce an awesome effect! Besides, the ABBA
feeling to it is just overwhelming. First time i saw this one was like watching
second reality or 303 for the first time only better...
You know that chill that creeps up your spine? Exactly when the vocals
enter with those phat beats pounding!
You just eat, sleep, go on stage and nothing more.
Psychic Symphony
------ 7.Intro of the week --------------------------------------------------
Mandala by Mandula
Code: Rod
Music: VLAD
Just quoting the infofile:
Mandala took part in the Scenest96 4k intro competition in Hungary.
Big surprise, the code is optimized for size not for speed, and
maybe the syncronising is inaccurate on faster machines due to this.
Very nice effects. Some rotozoomers, some fractals, some clouds.
Anyways, i cant judge the music but i can judge the code and the code
is brilliant! Rod is really a great guy and a very talented coder! Just go
get this small intro from mandulas homepage http://www.inf.bme.hu/mandula
and enjoy a small hungarian trip!
BTW- The intro got 5th place out of 11!
Psychic Symphony
------ 8.MOD of the week ----------------------------------------------------
Dead Flower by Falcon/Pulse.
I want to write a few words about the module that kicked my ass this week.
It is Dead Flower made by Falcon/Pulse for Gravity98 music compo.
I didnt had too much time to see stuff from Gravity98. But on this week I
was hearing the whole modules from this party. This one stayed in my memory to
this time. Why?
Design, design and once again design.
When I was hearing it for the first time I didnt reasoned the title with
the song, but after some times I divided this module into three parts.
First: Birth of a new Flower. With easy guitars, beautyfull female
chorus and so on.
Atmosphere is growing up. In background you can hear voices of waking up day,
birds and other animals. And we are jumping to second part:
blossoming flower. This part has stronger guitars, more frequently
choruses and louder voices of nature. This part is going to small
episode I named Full Bloom. After it our imagined flower is dying.
Guitarts are worse, we can hear some minor falses and at the end sad
silence. Very good module. You have to download it.

------ 10.Quote of the week -------------------------------------------------
From my interview in that same issue I like closure, not loose ends.
Id much rather say something like OK folks, its a wrap. instead of
See you next week!... with that next week never arriving.
OK folks, its a wrap.

------ 11.Charts ------------------------------------------------------------
HEY PEOPLE! READ THE TEXT TOO!

demojournal attached just answer back something like:
pulse/sexadelic/paper/mr.sex/falcon/made

An announcement by Snowman/Hornet
Greetings PC Demo Scene,
Since 1992, you have enjoyed the vast collection of scene-related files
located at The Hornet Archive. For years, we have struggled to provide
the best user interface and highest level of organization possible.
With over 300 gigs of files downloaded per month, all of us have been
kept very busy. Our archive is undeniably the single most active demo
scene location in existence.
On 04 Feb 1998, the final issue of DemoNews was released. From that
point forward, the energy of those who maintained the archive decreased
steadily. Finally it seemed obvious that we were no longer willing to
give enough energy. Many aspects of the archive have been completely
automated /incoming/music being one example. If it hadnt been for
this, the archive would not have lasted this long.
Hornet is disbanding. Although not all of our group members directly
assisted with the maintenance of the archive, they were all driving
forces keeping our organization together. Our group, in its final
state, consisted of 5 members: Andy Voss Phoenix, Brett Neely GD,
Pim van Mun Stony, Jim Leonard Trixter, and myself Snowman.
Andy maintainer of everything that was demo on the archive plans to
retire from the scene by the end of this year, but not without one final
scene project, a CDROM filled with memorabilia from NAID 95 and 96.
You can contact him at vossa@rpi.edu or xproject@erols.com
Brett columnist for DemoNews and co-organizer for Music Contest has
retired from Hornet but plans to remain in the music scene you can
reach him now at gd@scene.org
Jim coder for our single large-scale demo Explicit and several other
smaller intros has already left our group and retired from the scene to
work on his new project oldskool.org, a tribute/nostalgia site dedicated
to games of the early 1980s. Jims new email address is
trixter@oldskool.org
Pim graphics artist for the Escape and Freedom CDs, as well as a
contributor to several intros and web images will go inactive at the
same time as the archive. His plans are to release his never before
released work on a scene CDROM project. He will finish up his Computer
Science degree at the University of Nijmegen in The Netherlands next
year, and will continue with his small company. You can reach Pim at
mun@wxs.nl
Personally, I plan to complete my new faster-than-light warp drive and
sail to the third moon of Zenthrax on the outer fringes of the
Pangalaxian Empire, where I will be reunited with my r3 brethren. On
approximately 01 Nov 1998 according to your primitive Julian Earth
calander, I will reachable through terrestrial email at r3cgm@rworld.org
As a result, the archive will be dismantled as soon as possible. All
html pages will be deleted. The search engine will cease to function.
The /incoming directory will be cataloged, emptied, and removed. All
sites being web-hosted under /info will find new homes. Our mirror
sites will no longer be resolvable by country-code.hornet.org. In the
near future, there will be a final version of the archive. At this
point, there will be no web interface.
We can not shut down the archive quickly. We are the primary host for
several large online documentation projects and must give the
maintainers of them a chance to move somewhere else. We also can not,
in good conscience, end the archive with a full upload directory. For
the first time in perhaps 5 years we will have every file moved out of
/incoming.
Those of you who know me personally realize that I do not like loose
ends. I like closure. I feel an obligation to shut down the archive
properly. No, the end of The Hornet Archive will be a grueling,
painful, extended process just kidding!.
Ironically, we have not been able to sell off all of our Hornet
Underground and Hornet MODs CDROMs. They will outlive the archive
itself. There are still at least a couple hundred of each left. See
http://www.cdrom.com under Games and Entertainment for more details.
When the archive has reached its final state, I will put a copy of our
MASTER.SDD database file online. To all those would-be flat ascii file
hackerz, do with it as you please. After backups of the archive have
been made, the files will officially be transfered over to the folks at
scene.org. What they will call the new archive I couldnt guess.
Provided this new host keeps the data, they are allowed to do with it as
they wish. After this transfer is complete, I will rm -rf * /pub/demos.
Hopefully, the scene.org maintainers will set up a new archive quickly.
After that, I will mirror this archive back to our server on
ftp.cdrom.com we might as well take advantage of our bandwidth as long
as no work is required. Hornet Archive mirror sites will then become
scene.org mirror sites.
I notified several people at least a month ago about the end of the
archive. Fortunately, the PC Demos Explained, PC Demo Fan Club,
Zen of Tracking, GFX Zone, and Future Crew pages have all found new
homes. The URLs to the new locations will be posted on the main page of
our archive as they become available. Update your bookmarks as soon as
possible since there wont be a main page of the archive much longer.
The Music Contest and Hornet Archive Memories pages will be moving
to a new domain called rworld.org. I am setting up this new domain with
a friend of mine from University r3mdh. After the new machine is up,
I will remap the DNS entry for www.hornet.org to point to rworld.org,
and set up a virtual host so that you get to the correct location. This
will happen in about 2 months.
Music Contest may or may not be over. It is the single scene activity I
have not necessarily given up. Right now, I would estimate about a 60
chance of MC7 happening. Just wait 8 months and find out.
And now as an added bonus for having read this far, you will uncover the
answer to the longest-held secret about The Hornet Archive.

: Subject: Re: Fwd: hornet question
: Several years ago, we decided to officially name our archive The Hornet
: Archive as a direct result of the machine name hornet.eng.ufl.edu. For
: years after that, the genesis of hornet remained a mystery. Frankly,
: I was content to leave it that way. For the next half decade,
: references to The Hornet Archive surfaced as we attended scene
: gatherings and received press coverage Wired mentioned us twice if you
: can believe it. However, we the friendly folks who have been
: maintaining the archive all these years are now in the twilight of our
: demo scene activities, and will be shutting down the archive within 2
: months. As such, it seemed appropriate to finally unlock the mystery
: behind the name.
: I would personally be indebted if you, or a coworker, could locate
: the individual who originally named the machine hornet.eng.ufl.edu,
: and enlighten us as to why that particular name was chosen.
: Yours respectfully...

: Well, I am afraid you may not find the story as exciting as you wish.
: When UF Engineering Computer Services was founded we were given a block
: of 20 or 30 IP addresses on the campus backbone network 128 this was
: about 1990ish. At the time we didnt manage the reverse pointers and
: putting names to IP addresses was kind of a claim on them back then.
: So one afternoon we That being Me, Brad, Phil and Andy brainstormed up
: some names. We didnt really have a theme, other then that the names
: were mostly un-vulgar. Frenulum slipped in there somehow Many were
: named after our cats, Another theme that came and went quickly was
: insects. We came up with the names, and as equipment came in it got
: assigned to the next available named IP address.
: As time progressed we moved to new locations. We got our own subnet and
: control of the DNS for it. But the names moved with the machines, and
: the theme of no theme stuck with us until I left ECS in 1992ish...
: That is how hornet came to be hornet.

Before I sign off, Id like to give sincere thanks to the countless
people who have helped with the archive over the years. I would have
preferred to thank people individually, but the list was growing too
quickly and would surely have been missing important names. To all
those brave souls who authored web pages for the archive, assisted in
the drudgery of moving uploads out of /incoming, typed their fingers to
the nub with email feedback, and reviewed new songs, demos, code, and
graphics, I thank you whole-heartedly. Your efforts were successful in
bringing together the best place to get scene files.
Id like to repeat something that Dan Wright said in the final issue of
DemoNews: Oh yeah, one last thing. If you find that you are the last
one left please close the door on your way out.
From my interview in that same issue I like closure, not loose ends.
Id much rather say something like OK folks, its a wrap. instead of
See you next week!... with that next week never arriving.
OK folks, its a wrap.

Nephoos corner!
Hi I want to say some last words about my conflictable rumours about
Szum.
LAST COMMENTS ABOUT SZUM/FLEUR and DRAGON.
Ok. At first I want 2 say big sorry 2 Szum. I didnt want to broke your
feeling with these
rumours. But you know that on the scene are flying some stupid false
rumours and you cannot control it. I heard some serious and some stupid
rumours. I wrote this all and
send to Psychic Symphony. I should foresee that you will demand some
kind of protest,
but you know I didnt wanted to broke our friendship. So I wrote this
word stolen in inverted commas so I didnt take this serious. Big sorry
once again.
DRAGON 4 - My opinion.
Some day ago I met Binar and copied Dragon 4 from his harddisk. Disk
magazine kicked my ass, so I have to write some words about this
magazine. As I said this is fourth
issue of this marvelous magazine and this time whole Dragon stuff really
shocked me.
At start cool covers and beatifull panels. After a few minuts of reading
I can say that it is
the best magazine in Poland. I dont care about my corner opinion. This
isnt realy important for scene folks. But whole rest is very good. We
have many good articles and the best of them were translated into
english corner. Yes, there presents English corner, but this is the
weakest part of this mag. Pure, circa 20 articles arent strong reason to
download it for foreign dudes. But I hope this will change in future. I
heard some rumours
that in future will be ENGLISH only version of this mag. I hope that.
But to do it Dragon staff needs your SUPPORT. Maybe next issue, will be
more interesting for foreign readers.
Nephoo. RPG/FANTASY corner co-editor in Dragon Magazine.

ASM98: UNTIL NEXT TIME ABYSS
ASM98: -
Until next time written by

originally posted to comp.sys.ibm.pc.demos
ASSEMBLY 98 is over 10.8.1998
Pheew! After 56 hours of partying, ASSEMBLY 98 is over. I for one had a great
time eventhough I came out througly exhausted. Still, the experience of
organizing such a mammoth is absolutely thrilling. All competition entries can
be downloaded from ftp.assembly98.net an alias for ftp.scene.org. The
ASSEMBLY 98 website is still available at www.assembly98.net.
Here are some highlights that pop into my mind:
Schedule held!
The party schedule has never held this well. All compos save for the outdoor
soccer compo started EVERY TIME RIGHT ON TIME! That is, precisily on the same
minute the schedule said the compo should start it started. Eventhough e.g.
our GFX compo organizers taxi had a car crash and he had to stay behind to be
a witness. The reason why the outdoor compo was late was that somebody broke
into the car of the one of the outdoor organizers and stole everything
including our footballs!
Very cool entries!
I saw some absolutely cool entries. A few that come to my mind were Barry the
Orange the Animation compo winner and Misu Kisu the 2nd in the anim
compo, Traumas PC demo winner, Nerve Axiss Relic Amiga demo compo winner
Complexs and Digital Nerds Java compo entries and of course Hannu Kerttu
2000 the 2nd in the PC demo compo. I really rolled on the floor laughing
when I saw Hannu Kerttu 2000 for the first time.
Party network rocked!
Besides a few glitches here and there the party network really rocked the
place and everything beyond it! The peak rates of our traffic to/from outside
of the partyplace were over 56 MBPS! On average the rate was around 14 MBS.
During the weekend our website gathered over 2.4 million hits.
Very very loud party
Unfortunately the party has evolved to the point where everybody brings their
own stereos and some of the guys bring systems that could easily be fitted to
a disco or a small concert hall. And everybody is competiting with everybody
else to get his music heard. This has lead to the fact that it is way too
noisy in the party hall. Next year we will use decibel meters to restrict the
noise levels. Of course we will once again have free earplugs.
Great organizing!
I really have to thank all organizers at the party place. They all really
threw everything they got and them some into the work they did and so made the
whole event a success. Eventhough I and Pehu might be the ones that are most
visible it is really the guys who arent that make the difference at the party
place. The better they do their job, the less you will see them. Our thanks go
out to them.
Visitors!
I was very happy to see visitors from such far away countries as Brazil,
Japan, Australia and the United States. Eventhough most of the visitors 85
come from Finland, the atmosphere was quite international. Over all there were
approximately 3000 visitors at the party place.
Thank you all for visiting ASSEMBLY 98 and we hope meet you all again at
ASSEMBLY 99!

putting the pieces together. Its our scene! lets make things happen...
Assigns e-mail got caught in traffic once again but since Nephoo

Thats all from Spain. CU!
Psychic Symphony:
Sad enough, following demonews and traxweekly, the whole Hornet
archive is going to disappear! Leaving behind a trail of demoscene memories,
good and bad moments, either by the ratings, your first touch with a REAL
archive, the infamous gigantic musical archive or plain and simply the crew
behind it all. I am sure i speak for the whole demoscene when i say:
We will miss www.hornet.org! :
Besides that, The convention 1998 demoparty is probably being held
on norway this weekend. www.convention.com
Hum... Watching one of those Mtv videos where they have some
information on these little squares. In the latest video from Sash! it is
written that Sascha the skinny guy on the video on his home likes listening
to music from Miss Saigon. Hum... I wonder...

------ 5.Interview of the week ----------------------------------------------
Long awaited e-mail interview with Adok/Hugi by Psychic Symphony
1. introduce your humble person to the world! name, phone number, credit
card access code, shoe size, hair style! the normal...
Yep. My name is Claus-Dieter Volko, handle Adok, group Hugi. Phone
number is 004316652249, as if anyone would ever call :, credit card
access code is not available coz I have no credit card, shoe size is
about 41 size 8 as far as I know, and the hair style is not special,
pretty short hair, dark fair. And although you didnt ask for it, Ill
reveal to you that I was born on October 8th, 1983, in Vienna,
Austria.
2. what is it you do again?
In real life I am a pupil. As regards the scene, I am the main editor
of the Hugi diskmag and organize the Hugi Size Coding Competitions.
3. that sounds important :P is it as hard as it sounds?
Maybe. At least it takes pretty much time. For instance, I spent all
my summer-holidays working on Hugi 12.
4. is it worth all that trouble?
Definitely. Its cool to see the result of your work afterwards, and
its nice to read the readers opinions - both positive and negative
ones - and what influence your mag has on the scene. :
5. how do you see the future of the diskmag scene and the demoscene in
general?
The future of the diskmag scene is very positive. It is better now
than half a year ago. We have a big magazine again guess which :,
several other mags have been released or started, and newsletters like
yours try to become established in the scene. Lets just advertise the
magazines more and try to get the readers more active, and everything
will be good again.
Concerning the demoscene, many old sceners have less time now because
of their studies or their professional career. But thats just the
natural development. Anyhow fresh blood has to come into the scene.
6. you think we are drifting away from the old days then?
Maybe. In any case the scene has changed, as many articles in diskmags
describe in details. But those changes are not necessarily bad, and in
fact some changes brought the scene advantages. For instance, without
the Internet the scene would certainly be much smaller now. Whether
it would be less active, is another question. However, the answer is
probably yes, too.
7. enough on serious stuff! think fast!
first demo
I dont remember which was the first demo I saw. One of the first
demos I still remember, however, is Crystal Dreams 2.
best demo
I cant tell you which is the best demo but only give you my
subjective point of view, i.e my favourite demo. And that always
changes from time to time, so I wont tell you anything because it
could be outdated within a week.
3d
3d is okay.
oldskool
Still cool.
newcomers
Should be supported and guided into the scene.
elite
As being active in the demo scene requires special talents, we all or
at least most of us are in some way elite. If you cant think
logically, you cant become a coder, for example.
aliens
A standard question that has appeared in each demojournal interview so
far...
8. you want to shout out to anyone? family, friends...
Greetings to all my contacts, the whole scene and all I know in real
life.
9. what about just advertise for something like hugi12 :P
Why not? : If you havent done it yet, get Hugi 12 at
http://home.pages.de/hugidownload/ and enjoy reading 1.8 mbyte of
articles!
10. well! thats it! time for the smoke! was it good for you as it was for
me?
I hope so. :
Now I have experienced myself that answering an interview form is
harder than a live interview. :
PS- Hey man... I possed the questions thinking on what you would have
answered! I did them on the spot! As soon as you agreed with the
interview. REALLY! I enjoy more interviewing people over irc because
of these problems exactly but life is unfair!
It also depends a lot on the mood of both the interviewer and interviewee
along with their kind of relation. If 2 persons know each other remotly
even, its a lot easier to interview and to be interviwed then if they
are completly strangers to each other.
Theres an IMHO missing somewhere above so ill just drop it on this last
sentence!
------ 6.Demo of the week ---------------------------------------------------
Hyperventilation by Byterapers inc.
Code: Mr.Sex and Gurdan
Graphics: Mistral, Mike and Jate
Music: Yolk Legend / CNCD
Second place at Remedy98 demoparty! Very tight competition between
this little beauty and first place Destination Goatland which is a beautyfull
windows demo! Actually there even was a little fuzz about it, now everything
is ok so im not gonna bring it up! :
Anyways, more then 10 years old Byterapers kick major behind with
this ABBA feeling demo counting as their 4th on PC. Sexadelic being released
at assembly 1998... These guys are more then veterans! Back from the C64 days!
Code is simply brilliant! Very good 3D with some flares, crossfadings
and 2D effects. Awesome 3D transparent objects like metaballs!
Graphics-wise its brilliant! Loads of quality graphics everywhere.
Attention to those ABBA gfx aswell! :
Sound by the gods of sound Yolk and Legend! What else could you ask
for? Phat beats with sample from a very own ABBA tune which fits in
BRILLIANTLY well on the whole demo!
Design is definitly the finishing touch to this masterpiece. Music
tweaks are fully syncronised and produce an awesome effect! Besides, the ABBA
feeling to it is just overwhelming. First time i saw this one was like watching
second reality or 303 for the first time only better...
You know that chill that creeps up your spine? Exactly when the vocals
enter with those phat beats pounding!
You just eat, sleep, go on stage and nothing more.
Psychic Symphony
------ 7.Intro of the week --------------------------------------------------
Mandala by Mandula
Code: Rod
Music: VLAD
Just quoting the infofile:
Mandala took part in the Scenest96 4k intro competition in Hungary.
Big surprise, the code is optimized for size not for speed, and
maybe the syncronising is inaccurate on faster machines due to this.
Very nice effects. Some rotozoomers, some fractals, some clouds.
Anyways, i cant judge the music but i can judge the code and the code
is brilliant! Rod is really a great guy and a very talented coder! Just go
get this small intro from mandulas homepage http://www.inf.bme.hu/mandula
and enjoy a small hungarian trip!
BTW- The intro got 5th place out of 11!
Psychic Symphony
------ 8.MOD of the week ----------------------------------------------------
Dead Flower by Falcon/Pulse.
I want to write a few words about the module that kicked my ass this week.
It is Dead Flower made by Falcon/Pulse for Gravity98 music compo.
I didnt had too much time to see stuff from Gravity98. But on this week I
was hearing the whole modules from this party. This one stayed in my memory to
this time. Why?
Design, design and once again design.
When I was hearing it for the first time I didnt reasoned the title with
the song, but after some times I divided this module into three parts.
First: Birth of a new Flower. With easy guitars, beautyfull female
chorus and so on.
Atmosphere is growing up. In background you can hear voices of waking up day,
birds and other animals. And we are jumping to second part:
blossoming flower. This part has stronger guitars, more frequently
choruses and louder voices of nature. This part is going to small
episode I named Full Bloom. After it our imagined flower is dying.
Guitarts are worse, we can hear some minor falses and at the end sad
silence. Very good module. You have to download it.

------ 10.Quote of the week -------------------------------------------------
From my interview in that same issue I like closure, not loose ends.
Id much rather say something like OK folks, its a wrap. instead of
See you next week!... with that next week never arriving.
OK folks, its a wrap.

------ 11.Charts ------------------------------------------------------------
HEY PEOPLE! READ THE TEXT TOO!
Vote for the latest kickass production! Stuff you have just seen or

demojournal attached just answer back something like:
pulse/sexadelic/paper/mr.sex/falcon/made
1 line! 1 bloody line! I write 1500 per week and you cant write 1?
CAMMON! Gimme a break!
Another thing, since this was the begining of august i deducted 1
point from each votee and so some have disapeared! Just a reminder on how
these weird charts work!
One last thing, if its someone not very known at least if i dont
know him/her let me know the group so i can put it in here! Other blanks
are left because i simply cannot be sure if they are still active or in a
group at the moment, thats all. Graphicians mainly!

An announcement by Snowman/Hornet
Greetings PC Demo Scene,
Since 1992, you have enjoyed the vast collection of scene-related files
located at The Hornet Archive. For years, we have struggled to provide
the best user interface and highest level of organization possible.
With over 300 gigs of files downloaded per month, all of us have been
kept very busy. Our archive is undeniably the single most active demo
scene location in existence.
On 04 Feb 1998, the final issue of DemoNews was released. From that
point forward, the energy of those who maintained the archive decreased
steadily. Finally it seemed obvious that we were no longer willing to
give enough energy. Many aspects of the archive have been completely
automated /incoming/music being one example. If it hadnt been for
this, the archive would not have lasted this long.
Hornet is disbanding. Although not all of our group members directly
assisted with the maintenance of the archive, they were all driving
forces keeping our organization together. Our group, in its final
state, consisted of 5 members: Andy Voss Phoenix, Brett Neely GD,
Pim van Mun Stony, Jim Leonard Trixter, and myself Snowman.
Andy maintainer of everything that was demo on the archive plans to
retire from the scene by the end of this year, but not without one final
scene project, a CDROM filled with memorabilia from NAID 95 and 96.
You can contact him at vossa@rpi.edu or xproject@erols.com
Brett columnist for DemoNews and co-organizer for Music Contest has
retired from Hornet but plans to remain in the music scene you can
reach him now at gd@scene.org
Jim coder for our single large-scale demo Explicit and several other
smaller intros has already left our group and retired from the scene to
work on his new project oldskool.org, a tribute/nostalgia site dedicated
to games of the early 1980s. Jims new email address is
trixter@oldskool.org
Pim graphics artist for the Escape and Freedom CDs, as well as a
contributor to several intros and web images will go inactive at the
same time as the archive. His plans are to release his never before
released work on a scene CDROM project. He will finish up his Computer
Science degree at the University of Nijmegen in The Netherlands next
year, and will continue with his small company. You can reach Pim at
mun@wxs.nl
Personally, I plan to complete my new faster-than-light warp drive and
sail to the third moon of Zenthrax on the outer fringes of the
Pangalaxian Empire, where I will be reunited with my r3 brethren. On
approximately 01 Nov 1998 according to your primitive Julian Earth
calander, I will reachable through terrestrial email at r3cgm@rworld.org
As a result, the archive will be dismantled as soon as possible. All
html pages will be deleted. The search engine will cease to function.
The /incoming directory will be cataloged, emptied, and removed. All
sites being web-hosted under /info will find new homes. Our mirror
sites will no longer be resolvable by country-code.hornet.org. In the
near future, there will be a final version of the archive. At this
point, there will be no web interface.
We can not shut down the archive quickly. We are the primary host for
several large online documentation projects and must give the
maintainers of them a chance to move somewhere else. We also can not,
in good conscience, end the archive with a full upload directory. For
the first time in perhaps 5 years we will have every file moved out of
/incoming.
Those of you who know me personally realize that I do not like loose
ends. I like closure. I feel an obligation to shut down the archive
properly. No, the end of The Hornet Archive will be a grueling,
painful, extended process just kidding!.
Ironically, we have not been able to sell off all of our Hornet
Underground and Hornet MODs CDROMs. They will outlive the archive
itself. There are still at least a couple hundred of each left. See
http://www.cdrom.com under Games and Entertainment for more details.
When the archive has reached its final state, I will put a copy of our
MASTER.SDD database file online. To all those would-be flat ascii file
hackerz, do with it as you please. After backups of the archive have
been made, the files will officially be transfered over to the folks at
scene.org. What they will call the new archive I couldnt guess.
Provided this new host keeps the data, they are allowed to do with it as
they wish. After this transfer is complete, I will rm -rf * /pub/demos.
Hopefully, the scene.org maintainers will set up a new archive quickly.
After that, I will mirror this archive back to our server on
ftp.cdrom.com we might as well take advantage of our bandwidth as long
as no work is required. Hornet Archive mirror sites will then become
scene.org mirror sites.
I notified several people at least a month ago about the end of the
archive. Fortunately, the PC Demos Explained, PC Demo Fan Club,
Zen of Tracking, GFX Zone, and Future Crew pages have all found new
homes. The URLs to the new locations will be posted on the main page of
our archive as they become available. Update your bookmarks as soon as
possible since there wont be a main page of the archive much longer.
The Music Contest and Hornet Archive Memories pages will be moving
to a new domain called rworld.org. I am setting up this new domain with
a friend of mine from University r3mdh. After the new machine is up,
I will remap the DNS entry for www.hornet.org to point to rworld.org,
and set up a virtual host so that you get to the correct location. This
will happen in about 2 months.
Music Contest may or may not be over. It is the single scene activity I
have not necessarily given up. Right now, I would estimate about a 60
chance of MC7 happening. Just wait 8 months and find out.
And now as an added bonus for having read this far, you will uncover the
answer to the longest-held secret about The Hornet Archive.

: Subject: Re: Fwd: hornet question
: Several years ago, we decided to officially name our archive The Hornet
: Archive as a direct result of the machine name hornet.eng.ufl.edu. For
: years after that, the genesis of hornet remained a mystery. Frankly,
: I was content to leave it that way. For the next half decade,
: references to The Hornet Archive surfaced as we attended scene
: gatherings and received press coverage Wired mentioned us twice if you
: can believe it. However, we the friendly folks who have been
: maintaining the archive all these years are now in the twilight of our
: demo scene activities, and will be shutting down the archive within 2
: months. As such, it seemed appropriate to finally unlock the mystery
: behind the name.
: I would personally be indebted if you, or a coworker, could locate
: the individual who originally named the machine hornet.eng.ufl.edu,
: and enlighten us as to why that particular name was chosen.
: Yours respectfully...

: Well, I am afraid you may not find the story as exciting as you wish.
: When UF Engineering Computer Services was founded we were given a block
: of 20 or 30 IP addresses on the campus backbone network 128 this was
: about 1990ish. At the time we didnt manage the reverse pointers and
: putting names to IP addresses was kind of a claim on them back then.
: So one afternoon we That being Me, Brad, Phil and Andy brainstormed up
: some names. We didnt really have a theme, other then that the names
: were mostly un-vulgar. Frenulum slipped in there somehow Many were
: named after our cats, Another theme that came and went quickly was
: insects. We came up with the names, and as equipment came in it got
: assigned to the next available named IP address.
: As time progressed we moved to new locations. We got our own subnet and
: control of the DNS for it. But the names moved with the machines, and
: the theme of no theme stuck with us until I left ECS in 1992ish...
: That is how hornet came to be hornet.
: E
Before I sign off, Id like to give sincere thanks to the countless
people who have helped with the archive over the years. I would have
preferred to thank people individually, but the list was growing too
quickly and would surely have been missing important names. To all
those brave souls who authored web pages for the archive, assisted in
the drudgery of moving uploads out of /incoming, typed their fingers to
the nub with email feedback, and reviewed new songs, demos, code, and
graphics, I thank you whole-heartedly. Your efforts were successful in
bringing together the best place to get scene files.
Id like to repeat something that Dan Wright said in the final issue of
DemoNews: Oh yeah, one last thing. If you find that you are the last
one left please close the door on your way out.
From my interview in that same issue I like closure, not loose ends.
Id much rather say something like OK folks, its a wrap. instead of
See you next week!... with that next week never arriving.
OK folks, its a wrap.

Nephoos corner!
Hi I want to say some last words about my conflictable rumours about
Szum.
LAST COMMENTS ABOUT SZUM/FLEUR and DRAGON.
Ok. At first I want 2 say big sorry 2 Szum. I didnt want to broke your
feeling with these
rumours. But you know that on the scene are flying some stupid false
rumours and you cannot control it. I heard some serious and some stupid
rumours. I wrote this all and
send to Psychic Symphony. I should foresee that you will demand some
kind of protest,
but you know I didnt wanted to broke our friendship. So I wrote this
word stolen in inverted commas so I didnt take this serious. Big sorry
once again.
DRAGON 4 - My opinion.
Some day ago I met Binar and copied Dragon 4 from his harddisk. Disk
magazine kicked my ass, so I have to write some words about this
magazine. As I said this is fourth
issue of this marvelous magazine and this time whole Dragon stuff really
shocked me.
At start cool covers and beatifull panels. After a few minuts of reading
I can say that it is
the best magazine in Poland. I dont care about my corner opinion. This
isnt realy important for scene folks. But whole rest is very good. We
have many good articles and the best of them were translated into
english corner. Yes, there presents English corner, but this is the
weakest part of this mag. Pure, circa 20 articles arent strong reason to
download it for foreign dudes. But I hope this will change in future. I
heard some rumours
that in future will be ENGLISH only version of this mag. I hope that.
But to do it Dragon staff needs your SUPPORT. Maybe next issue, will be
more interesting for foreign readers.
Nephoo. RPG/FANTASY corner co-editor in Dragon Magazine.

ASSEMBLY 98 is over 10.8.1998
Pheew! After 56 hours of partying, ASSEMBLY 98 is over. I for one had a great
time eventhough I came out througly exhausted. Still, the experience of
organizing such a mammoth is absolutely thrilling. All competition entries can
be downloaded from ftp.assembly98.net an alias for ftp.scene.org. The
ASSEMBLY 98 website is still available at www.assembly98.net.
Here are some highlights that pop into my mind:
Schedule held!
The party schedule has never held this well. All compos save for the outdoor
soccer compo started EVERY TIME RIGHT ON TIME! That is, precisily on the same
minute the schedule said the compo should start it started. Eventhough e.g.
our GFX compo organizers taxi had a car crash and he had to stay behind to be
a witness. The reason why the outdoor compo was late was that somebody broke
into the car of the one of the outdoor organizers and stole everything
including our footballs!
Very cool entries!
I saw some absolutely cool entries. A few that come to my mind were Barry the
Orange the Animation compo winner and Misu Kisu the 2nd in the anim
compo, Traumas PC demo winner, Nerve Axiss Relic Amiga demo compo winner
Complexs and Digital Nerds Java compo entries and of course Hannu Kerttu
2000 the 2nd in the PC demo compo. I really rolled on the floor laughing
when I saw Hannu Kerttu 2000 for the first time.
Party network rocked!
Besides a few glitches here and there the party network really rocked the
place and everything beyond it! The peak rates of our traffic to/from outside
of the partyplace were over 56 MBPS! On average the rate was around 14 MBS.
During the weekend our website gathered over 2.4 million hits.
Very very loud party
Unfortunately the party has evolved to the point where everybody brings their
own stereos and some of the guys bring systems that could easily be fitted to
a disco or a small concert hall. And everybody is competiting with everybody
else to get his music heard. This has lead to the fact that it is way too
noisy in the party hall. Next year we will use decibel meters to restrict the
noise levels. Of course we will once again have free earplugs.
Great organizing!
I really have to thank all organizers at the party place. They all really
threw everything they got and them some into the work they did and so made the
whole event a success. Eventhough I and Pehu might be the ones that are most
visible it is really the guys who arent that make the difference at the party
place. The better they do their job, the less you will see them. Our thanks go
out to them.
Visitors!
I was very happy to see visitors from such far away countries as Brazil,
Japan, Australia and the United States. Eventhough most of the visitors 85
come from Finland, the atmosphere was quite international. Over all there were
approximately 3000 visitors at the party place.
Thank you all for visiting ASSEMBLY 98 and we hope meet you all again at
ASSEMBLY 99!
