About

Tokyo Demo Fest is a demoparty which will be held on February 18-19, 2017.
Watch seminars and demos while making your demos in the afternoon, and then compete!
For sofa sceners, information about the live streaming page will be posted soon.

Location

3331 Arts Chiyoda
(This is the same location as last year!)

The event will be held in a hall roughly the area of medium-sized European demoparties. Needless to say, the partyplace features a massive screen for showing productions. Also, you are welcome to bring food and drinks from outside, so you can enjoy demos while having, and maybe sharing, delicacies. (That being said this is a demoparty, not a cooking party, so please don't bring your stove or microwave. :) )

Seminars

Tokyo Demo Fest Tutorial

Speaker: Tokyo Demo Fest Organizer

Topic:
Aimed at the TDF first time visitors, this talk will present the events to expect at the party, how to participate to the competitions and how to vote for them.

GLSL music course

Speaker: @notargs

Topic:
This seminar will give an introduction to techniques for music with GLSL. We will have a quick look at the theory, using these slides already available, and start experimenting.

Designing a full body VR experience

Speaker: Akihiro Ando / Hashilus K.K

Topic:
VR is only a visual experience. If we add tactile together with full body sensation, we can create impressive experiences of an entire new level. It becomes possible to make them even more enjoyable, even more thrilling. This talk will introduce techniques to design such an experience.

Secrets of Parthenon Renderer

Speaker: Toshiya Hachisuka / The University of Tokyo

Topic:
Parthenon Renderer, released first in 2002, is one of the earliest GPU renderers that achieved acceleration of photorealistic offline rendering using a GPU. There are two key technical elements in Parthenon Renderer that enabled this early adoption of a GPU in photorealistic rendering: the replacement of ray tracing over hemispheres by rasterization and distribution of various computation steps in photorealistic rendering to a CPU and a GPU. By revealing the internals of Parthenon Renderer, I will show you some examples of engineering choices that make (or made) sense when developing a photorealistic renderer using a GPU.

Events

Urban Coaster

Exhibition: Hashilus K.K.

The urban coaster VR experience is coming to Tokyo Demo Fest. If you haven't tried it, don't miss that opportunity: a special installation will be set up at the Tokyo Demo Fest party hall. Please understand that depending on how many people want to try, you might be unable to. Sorry about that. (photos from previous events)

TDF Lunch party (Food table)

TDF supporters

Let's make Tokyo Demo Fest the once in a year awesome demoparty. What's better to socialize than a meal and a drink? In 2016, some visitors had this simple yet fabulous idea to put some food on a table with a sign "free for everyone, bring more food". Soon enough, the real party was at the food table. Let's do this again this year!

Compos

Please see the timetable for the deadlines and when the competitions will be held. Visitors will be able to submit their entries through the party intranet.
