You're right that many demos simply exist to showcase technical brilliance, but many in the demoscene are starting to trend further towards expressing artistic ability. Some examples off the top of my head:

- Number One/Another One by CNCD/FLT: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=77399

- When Silence Dims the Stars Above by Conspiracy: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=75713

- Aurora by Excess: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=75791

- Along for the Ride by Ümlaüt Design: http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=78053

Also any ASD demo. They tend to stray away from the general "demo-esthetic" even when it come to the music.

"Lifeforce" was fantastic and really stand out from any other demo, event to this day.

"For your love" use the same kind of particles extravaganza that Fairlight popularized, but really has it's own esthetic.

Smash smashing it again with the first one...

BTW - your realtime synth engine (https://github.com/monadgroup/axiom) looks great. Any ETA for a Mac build of the VST?
