@party 2014

Sponsored by the MIT Game Lab

Come join us for our fifth year!

@party is a demoparty, or collaborative computer art festival where people participate in a variety of competitions that allow them to demonstrate their technical and artistic skills. These include graphics, music, games, wild, and of course demo (see our website for rules).

We are part of the demoscene, a computer art subculture focused on the symbosis of art and technology.

The goal of our event is to provide an environment in which folks can meet, learn from each other, and share nifty expressive projects involving technology, particularly computers.

Free to MIT students, faculty, and staff.

Contact us directly at questions @ atparty-demoscene.net if you are unemployed, underemployed, or in financial stress to see about volunteer opportunities and reduced-cost tickets.

@party is a program of Boston Cyberarts and is made possible by the MIT Game Lab.

We are pleased to announce the speakers for @party 2014.
