Interview on arte-TV
OMG!? Watching oneself speaking is always embarrasing. esp. if you are half drunk during the interview.

Evoke is over and we even managed to release or final version of Outside. The reception was surprisingly good. Well, we won the demo competition. Additionally we got some really funny press coverage on one of Germany's biggest IT-news-sites Heise news.
In der Königsdisziplin der Demos siegte Still mit "Finally Inside". Aus ihrer politischen Gesinnung macht die Demo keinen Hehl: Eine Überwachungskamera wird zu vielen; später ist eine Galerie mit Politiker-Bildern zu sehen; am Ende fliegt die Kamera durch eine zerstörte Stadt.
Which could be translated into:
In the champions category "PC-Demos", Still won with "Finally Inside". This demo does not make a secret of its political orientation: One surveillance camera becomes many; later you see a gallery of politicians and finally the camera is flying through the remains of a destroyed city.
Can't wait, to the police searching my home :-)
2008 was a very productive year for still so it's nice to hear, that we have been nominated for four scene.org awards:
- "Best demo" and "Best direction" for The Seeker
- "Best 64k-intro" for Invoke
- "Most original concept" for Passing
I am convinced that we don't have a chance in any of the categories, but hey: It's a nice ego-booster anyways. Thanks for nominating us.
