Back from holidays
Staff is slowly coming back from the summer holiday pause. Various pics from Skan and Pan have finally been uploaded.
The timetable and seminars are announced!
The party timetable (or at least the first draft - changes might occur) and the synopsis of the seminars are available in the website menu now. Yes, we know it's unfortunate that the seminars are all in Hungarian - we will try to get a bit more international soon.
evoke tracks - the aftermath
Here's a late "thank you" for every one who supported and attended "Evoke Tracks", the electronic music event hosted by the Sensor club in cooperation with our demoparty. It was a big success, and we are already thinking how to pull off something similar next year. There are unfortunately no recordings of the live- and dj-sets, but if you liked what you heard, or want to hear what you missed out on, check out these mixes by the featured artists: - 2krazy: Life on Urban Affairs radio, 24.7.07 - Disrupt & Rootah: Live @ Mungo's Hi-Fi Glasgow, 30.3.07 - Lotek Style & Repomatic: Live on Delta Force radio, 27.7.07 - mo.: various Netaudio mixes Enjoy, and see you next year!
After the party page
Finally, after the downtime of scene.org, we launched our after-the-party page containing all releases, results, photos, reports and video from Buenzli 16! Contribute to the list by sending your photos, reports and videos to us. Please stand by a little bit longer for top notch recordings of the incredible OHP demo entries. Thank you everyone for contributing to Buenzli 16 - which had, compared to the relatively small amount of visitors, a great bunch of hi-quality releases.
Prize list published
There's a general prize list available at the party website. Visit us!
It's over now
We just returned from cleaning up the partyplace and feel that we should give you some information about the outcome of the party. The releases and results will be available once we have slept a bit - due to the scene.org downtime, the distribution is a bit unconfortable. We will make everything available to you sooner or later. Thanks to everyone who has been at the party place, to everyone watching us on DTV and to the DTV guys for the really great support. You make it easy for us to be back in one year!
Buenzli 16 Has Started
Finally, we have found some time to inform you about the good start of Buenzli 16! Everything is running smooth - and you can join us live on DTV. Be ready for the real action tomorrow - you could attend one of the shadow parties taking place all around the globe (Cologne, Helsinki, ...).
Web-site online!
With new and fresh colours, and at least one less typo than last year. Holla!
Friday night live act: B.M.B.
To the last minute, we were able to get the confirmation for the Friday night live act: B.M.B. (“Bring more beer”) will play their characteristic techno-trance-chip-rock music at Buenzli 16! This show promises a lot of fun and good sound: Synthesizers mixed with an e-guitar live on stage can't be better. Make sure you don't miss this (don't arrive too late). Want to hear how it sounds? Check out the B.M.B. demo tracks.
Aaaand some more Evoke Pictures!
Kindly provided by Mouldycat, go check them out!
Evoke at GIGA
Evoke 10 will be featured live on GIGA Games tonight! Watch the show from 22:00 to 24:00. During their Maxx-Section they will take a closer look at Evoke 10, the Intel Demo Competition and the demoscene in general. For those of you who are not able to receive GIGA they have a live stream!
After the shower of confetti
What a great party! It was really a wonderful experience to celebrate our 10th anniversary with you. As in the last years we set up an "after party" page with results, releases, articles, photos and more on Evoke 10. See you at Buenzli, tUM, Breakpoint or Evoke 2008.
Weather forecast
The real party is outside, but only if the weather is good enough. Check the self-updating weather forecast picture! It's almost a tradition, but rain will probably be falling during Buenzli. For Sunday, it looks better and sunny again. And if it's raining all days, we sure give you enough entertainment inside, too.

Evoke 2007 - first pictures
Here are photos from Evoke 2007 which ended just today and was a great place to be. See yourself, and regret not being there!
Compusphere 2007
We managed to get our greasy hands on a bunch of shots of Compusphere 2007, courtesy of tFt. I would write something highly inspired and witty about the fact that we took this long to process them, but I guess "sorry about that, guys" is the best I can do right now.
More pictures from Evoke 2007
Some more pictures from Evoke 2007 added. Thanks to Fait & Moqui!

Your way to Evoke
For those of you who still don't know the way to Vulkanhalle after two years: we updated the travel-pages! They now contain a Google Map, even. And as some of our guests are still seeking or offering trips to Evoke: How about taking a look at the lifts?

Interactivity! Open Video & Jam Sessions
Buenzli has always been known as the party where people really can take part. We continue this tradition with our Open Video Show and Open Jam Session.
The unofficial tradition - now official. We have scheduled an open video session, make sure you don't miss your chance to submit the coolest video you found over the net. Not cheesy, but artsy. Not bad, but sick. Go ahead and show us the trends of tomorrow. Unknown youtube fun? You did something that is even to weird for the wild compo? We want to have it and we want to show it live. Go ahead and contact us during the party or even in advance. This is YOUR show - going live on Friday late night.
Saturday night, the vibes go high - that's the moment where you as a demoscene musician grab you instruments (laptop, guitar, c64, drum machine, ..), plug to our mixer and go mad in the Open Jam Session. Together with everyone else on stage you do a spontaneous and improvised live set. Sounds good? Join in on Saturday night.
