You are insignificance
Dreams become entangled in the system

ATARI DEMOS THAT WEREN'T V1.0
-----------------------------
This article is based on an older article that I wrote for Undercover magazine
issue 12 called "Demos that never saw the light of day". Looking back to that
article made me feel that I need to update that list a little bit because some
of those demos mentioned back then where released in the meantime. For Example
ILLUSION, VIRTUAL ESCAPE, MOTION BLUR (atleast previews) and GSC66 (atleast
previews).
