"Spring"
The problem with synthoids was that they simply thought too much, overly fixated on optimization. The organics played the long game, dancing patiently since the dawn of time.

A very simple way to draw HAKMEM 149 based structures by using whole 32 bits range with upper bits as coordinates using unsigned shifts.
This also works with a lower range but it loses precision.
The oblique version is even simpler by removing the last two operations.
The structure looks like Apollonian net or Hopalong attractors.
This drawing method also works with other attractors or Gingerbread man map etc.
Being an orga of an event, I can assure you that the UNDEFINED computer arts and homemade electronics festival, that I manage, will indeed happen on March 1. in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. The festival features a lot of #demoscene related stuff, including videocalls to various celebrities and also some programming sessions.

(Yes, that base64 string is the full program )

Tetraskelion (256 byte intro) by Rrrola is mesmerizing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkNH6oYAGfQ
The #lovebyte #demoparty was held this weekend and I submitted a 256 bytes minesweeper game.
The theme was "Blind date" and all prods were shown anonymously, but now that the party is over, I'm allowed to post about it

for(y=0;y<50;y++)for(x=0;x<61;x++)process.stdout.write(String.fromCodePoint(0x2570+Math.ceil(Math.sqrt(((h=x-(30+(15-y/3)*((Math.floor(x/31)*2)-1)))*h+(v=y-(25+12*((Math.floor(y/25)*2)-1)))*v))*1.5+y-4)))
I enjoyed making a single-line node app that output a drawing to a 61x50 console for Our Generation. I've been meaning to make a little website to make more, but I'd rather just make and post one!

Up to the meta-level!
We have prepared a special DJ set, that is constructed of DJ-Sets we had in the past. Can you guess who is playing?
All this is wrapped into a nice paper: The DJ Set will get supported by over 300+ effects we have on board from the last bytejams. Be ready for a true extravaganza!
You made it!!
We received 128 entries so far. Will we reach the 256 together?
This is a friendly reminder that anyone can contribute to the lovebyte.party!
It is a party about tiny intros, that is held online on the weekend of 15. - 16. Feb 2025.

Another lovely day, another special invitation! This tiny yet magical 256 byte intro by GeirS was lovingly crafted for the legendary Commodore 64. Yes, really! The C64 may not be the first thought for tiny intros, but oh, how beautifully 256 bytes can shine. Made with care - just for you! Come celebrate tiny intros with us. Next weekend!
Meet our special: Tiny Wonders - A poem about Sizecoding.
Join us at Lovebyte 2025 on February 15-16th, 2025.
Narration and music by Jeenio.
Believe it or not, but #lovebyte is almost around the corner.
Only one week left, until your favourite #sizecoding demoparty will start.
If you are curious about #sizecoding, what it is and how to do it: We have something for you.
Over the last years, we did a lot of seminars, covering different approaches, best practises and various platforms like: #ZXSpectrum, #gameboy, #microw8 or #javascript
Enjoy this playlist and get all you need to know to start - step by step!

I also participated in very useless size/speedcoding competitions - some of them are still accessible from this old web page: https://amycoders.org/compo/
Note that some of the HTML is a bit broken, for example https://amycoders.org/compo/circlecompo.html - you can view source to see the full routine
