Revision and I returned to the E-Werk again this year after a long break. Thank God the Corona crisis is over. I unexpectedly met Prodatron and several new friendly sceners. The complete party details and more pictures are in the Revision 2024 article.

Mittwintermeeting 17 took place from March 7 to 10, 2024, and I had the chance to attend on Friday and Saturday. The party place is a cozy spot in the woods. You find everything from 8-bit retro computers and 11-point Virtual Reality setups to brand-new 8-bit hardware designs. The meeting started with Wizard's car breaking down, so we had to take it to the next gas station - where he sold the remainder for some hundred bucks and left it there. I spent most of the time at SvOlli's desk, where he explained his Sorbus 650C02 Computer. We used the time to set up my new Linux laptop with all the required software and libraries so it could flash the Sorbus board and use it via terminal. The Sorbus is a great way to learn what is happening inside the CPU and the basics of an operating system. When I was back, I successfully made my board work. During the event, insane played my Atari 8-bit demos, and SvOlli also showed me the Stella emulator running my VCS demos on his Steam Deck. And everyone tried to get Bubble Universe ported somehow to his favorite system. The whole crew went to the hotel's dinner room on Saturday evening and had dinner together, which was a nice closing. Thanks to the organizers for the great event!

The Last Party first occurred in 1997, and many followed it throughout the years. Thanks to Keystone's support and some changes in my life, I could finally attend it this year. Like at Silly Venture, I met many new people I had not met before, and we had great chats. I returned with lots of inspiration, new ideas, and solutions to problems I had before. The complete party details and more pictures are in the Last Party 2024 article.

The Silly Venture 2k23 Winter Edition is over, and it was again a personal highlight of the year for me. I've met many new people I had not met before, and we had a great chat. Also - thanks to the support from Keystone - I didn't come empty-handed. Our intro and our demo both ranked 2nd in the compos. It really cannot get much better than that. You can find the full party details and more pictures in the Silly Venture 2k23 WE article.
