The demoscene is a computer art subculture that specializes in producing demos which are audio-visual presentations that run in real-time on a computer. The main goal of a demo is to show off programming artistic and musical skills.The demoscene first appeared during the 8-bit era on computers such as the Commodore 64 ZX Spectrum Atari 800 and Amstrad CPC and came to prominence during the rise of the 16/32-bit home computers (mainly the Amiga and Atari ST).
