Everything about State-of-the-art totally explained
» This article is about the Amiga demo, for other uses, see State of the art (disambiguation).
State of the Art is an
Amiga demo by
Spaceballs, and winner of
The Party 1992 demo competition. It features
vector silhouettes of dancers, occasionally
morphing into geometric shapes, synchronised to a
rave music soundtrack. The sequel to State of the Art was
Nine Fingers.
The production of the demo was described in an interview in Amiga disc magazine R.A.W #5. It was created by videotaping footage of a dancer and converting it to vector data using a tool created by Lone Starr. The dancer was 17 year old Jannicke Selmer-Olsen who was dating Lone Starr at the time.
Despite winning The Party, opinion was split on State of the Art. Unlike other demos of the time which focussed outperforming other demos technically, State of the Art focussed on something that was primarily artistically pleasing.
