Revision (demoparty) facts for kids
Revision is a special event called a demoparty. It happens every year during Easter in Saarbrücken, Germany. Think of a demoparty as a big festival where people show off amazing computer art, music, and code they've created.
Revision is like the next chapter of another famous demoparty called Breakpoint. Many of the same people who helped organize Breakpoint now help run Revision. This event started in 2011, after Breakpoint finished in 2010.
Each year, about 800 people from all over the world come to Revision. It's currently the biggest event of its kind, focusing purely on demoscene creations!
