A making-of video for 9 Fingers, an Amiga demoscene production by Spaceballs. It shows how the group made the demo, including the dance footage they filmed with their friends.

HN people keep it in lists of demoscene music and making-of videos, and note how teenagers filmed their high school friends for the dance shots.

9 Fingers "making of" video, where the Spaceballs dudes videotaped their highschool friends for the dance shots: ▶ this video I think Jannicke, the state of the art girl dated Paul (Lone Starr) at the time. They were all teens when they made this and Paul was one of the by far youngest democoders in the scene at the time. Interview with Jannicke (look how young everyone is): link More context in Borzyskowski's work: "THE HACKER DEMO SCENE AND IT'S CULTURAL ARTIFACTS" link Raw #5 diskmag: link One day I'll really take the time to write a properly researched history of this very unique era..
