Masagin is a realtime demoscene production by Farbrausch and Neuro with music by paniq, using animated recursive SVG graphics made in Inkscape. It is a psychedelic, nested-dials audiovisual piece.
HN recommends it as a showcase of what the demoscene can do, with high-res antialiased vector graphics and motion blur.

Farbrausch's "debris." shows just how much you can pack into 200k (including the audio, btw). [LINK] For the webby crowd: "Masagin" features animated, recursive SVGs with antialiasing and motion blur at high rez and high frame rate. this video Or, you could download both demos from [LINK] and run them on your own PC.
Leonard Ritter is a very talented guy. Looking forward to NOWHERE. He's known as paniq in the demoscene and did the music, 2d engine and graphics for the awesome Masagin: this video
The one for NVScene 2008 kicked ass. It's about as close as you can get to color intoxication (which is the rough translation of "farbrausch"). this video
Nice. Reminds me of one part of the Masagin demo [1], with lots of nested dials synched to the music. 1. this video
