9 Fingers, the 1993 Amiga demo by Spaceballs, captured in HD at 50fps. It is a demoscene production known for its real-time visual tricks on stock Amiga hardware.

HN people list it among the classic Amiga demos and call it mind-blowing for what it does on a stock machine that fits on one floppy.

The “European hacker-culture demo” from Ezra’s Amiga is likely State Of The Art or 9 Fingers from Spaceballs — both really cool scene demos: link ▶ this video These easily run on an Amiga 500 ES from the 80s, and are stored on a single floppy disk.
