They do that complete render in 177kb...? I remember crack intros but that's insane. Is this in C?

I don't get the fascination with Farbrausch. While I respect and admire the feat which I'm unable to pull of myself, there are comparatively much better realisations both in terms of art and technique. See the following 64k demos:

- chaos theory - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfuierUvx1A

- turtles all the way down - sub dream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z48t2R2hEJM

Rewatching those reminded me of how phenomenal Demovibes 9 is: http://www.demovibes.org/dv_info.htm

As far as the Farbrausch comment, I think the appeal of Debris, in particular, is the stunning audio component of the demo. Chaos Theory is beautiful, but the audio/video components don't feel as tightly integrated as some of Farbrausch's work.

C++, maybe a little assembly, and lots of shader code.
