Hehe, sometimes Hacker News is unbelievable. ;-) So, I take it you‘re from the
Cologne area as well, given the Burning Chrome‘s proximity to the city (if
memory serves) and long-distance calls were outrageously expensive.

Going through the guidebook, anyone would know the difference between the
graphician and the coder roles in making a demo? I’ve done a bit of Processing
and P5js and these two roles seem to me to be overlapping, aren’t they? As
you’re coding the graphics.

Is the difference the same as Web Designer vs. Web Developer in a more
familiar context?

~~~

I think that's a made up word that just means a graphics artist.

Then again, for things like C64 picture formats, you need to work within the
various limitations and the cheat programming one can use to extend the
palettes and forcing badlines more frequently and so on which makes the artist
need a lot of programming skills too.

How about that program that says, "Water detected in drive A:" and then it
spins the drive to dry it. Can it be in the demoscene?
