What is the demoscene?

" Short answer: A subculture in the computer underground culture universe,
dealing with the creative and constructive side of technology, proving that a
computer can be used for much more than writing a letter in MS-Word and hence
emphasize on computer technology as just another medium that can transport
ideas and styles, show off skills and express opinions etc.

Another theory says, that it's just a bunch of boozing computer nerds,
programming weird, useless multimedia stuff. Errm. ;) "
