[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

@Babycastles @Amtrak We had a great time and hope you did too!

Many helped out over the years, with the 2020 team being @ra @uglymachine @kanawish @GlandeurLessard @nickmofo Frank DeMarco, Carl Therrien @scenesat

Thanks to all of you who came to the party over the years 2016-2020!

[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

Synchrony will, ALAS, not be continuing!

Currently @Babycastles our starting point is still closed, @Amtrak is not running trains from NYC to Montreal, and we have no place to have the compos in Montreal! So we cannot plan a 2023 party, and are wrapping up the project

[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

Attention browser-based sizecoders! Taper 5 is out, as is the call for work for Taper 6

[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

Attention Synchrony participants and #demoscene folks!

In Generative Unfoldings, 15 commissions of $1000 will be awarded for generative art, to run live in an in-browser exhibition—all are welcome to apply

Deadline for sketches/prototypes: November 1

Vous nous manquez, nous espérons que tout le monde est en sécurité, et avons hâte de nous réunir à nouveau quand la situation le permettra.

[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

Considérant la pandémie, il est impossible de tenir le « party sur le train » depuis New York City jusqu’à Montréal en janvier 2021.

[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

Dans la mesure où Synchony est une opportunité unique de se retrouver en personne, nous ne prévoyons pas de remplacer le demoparty avec un événement virtuel.

[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

We miss you all, hope everyone stays safe, and look forward to gathering again when we can!

[Synchrony - Demoparty International @syncnyc]

Given the pandemic, there is no safe and responsible way to have Synchrony as “the party on the train,” from New York City to Montreal, in January 2021. Because Synchrony is a unique opportunity for us to get together in person, we're not planning an online substitute.

I made a picture of Cobra's Computorium on the train to Montréal for @syncnyc! #demoscene #SGI #PowerPC #dotmatrix #zipdisk #punchcard #pixelart #aseprite

(the real computorium is not this tidy :)
