[edit] About
Sundown is a relatively small, UK-orientated demoparty, aimed at fostering and expanding creative talents and programming skills in the demoscene.
[edit] 2005
The first party was organised by Ruairi Fullam (known in the demoscene as "rc55") to see whether such an event was viable. After consulting members of the UK demo community, the hall was hired, and networking, audio systems and projection were arranged. The event was publicised mainly by word of mouth and demoscene Web sites and managed to attract around 45 visitors.
[edit] 2006
A second event was held in October 2006 at the same venue. A slightly larger number of attendees were there, including Mark Shuttleworth.
