!FunkyDemo/!ReadMe
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

----------
Version 1.00 (14 Jan 1992)
The original funky archimedes demo featuring loads of vector graphics, funky rave music , pre-raytraced graphics etc.
Instructions:
- Get a colour monitor if you dont have one already.
- If possible, connect your computer to a stereo hi-fi
(if you have done so, type F12 then 'SPEAKER OFF').
- Turn down the lights.
- Run application and view a fair distance from the screen.
- Left mouse button to quit, middle mouse button to pause.
This is a PD demo, meaning you can freely copy it and it may be sold at no more than the cost of a disc and a small amount extra. All files inside the "!FunkyDemo" directory must remain unchanged.
"!S/Tracker" Was originally written by Hugo Fiennes and Fabrice Mercier [(c) The Serial Port], SWI interface and other bits were added by Matt Farrow.
(This is provided complete with all files except the one put in by the PD
company who distributed it.)

PS.
If you like the demo, please feel free to send me a fiver or so-
and if I get enough for a colour monitor I'll write an even
better demo.
