If you think that’s impressive, look at the demos thealgorithm pulls off
On a stock c64 with no expansion. Advance to the 11minute mark: full screen streaming video and audio from a floppy
He also has a 22khz demo that plays back a full song on stock HW.
Seeing full screen video and audio on an 8-bit machine in 1982 would have seemed like alien technology, it would have blown people away. Years later people would be impressive by simple black and white QuickTime movies on far more expensive and faster HW.
