Are machines going to take over the world? A "music video" completely performed by an unexpanded Commodore VIC-20 and a 1541 disk drive. Note that there are only 5120 bytes and 1024 nybbles of RAM available, and the total disk size of the demo is a mere 16 KB. No one had ever pushed VIC-20 programming this far before the new millennium.And don't forget: even the original Terminator was based on the 6502 microprocessor!More: http://www.pelulamu.net/viznut...

Watch the disk drive light as the demo is playing, it adds yet another element to this demo.

This guy should write the next Windows. Sorry, he should write the replacement for Windows.

...coming back to this now, I think that a deathmetal or industrial cover would be badass.

I had this dream that the vic-20 had these incredible demos written for it, or did I take the red pill? Hmmm...

My apologies. Seems your right. I started to learn 6502 on the Vic when it seemed you could not write a decent (publishable) game in basic. When Vic went obsolete, I continued my venture with the Commodore 64, but at this time the software standards had gone far too complex!

No, it really had 5K. The 3.5K it reported was what was available for BASIC programs. The remaining memory was used to store the screen and some operating system variables.

The unexpanded vic was actually 3.5k!
