Xanadu's Goal:
To promote demos as an art form, and to participate in and encourage
their development. To develop our skills as programmers while creating
(hopefully) artistic demos.

Inspiration: Kubla Khan
By Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1797)
In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea
So twice five miles of fertile ground
with walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinous rills
Where blossomed many an inscene bearing tree:
And here were forests, ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.
But oh ! that deep romantic chasm which slanted
Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
A savage place ! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover !
And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,
A mighty fountian momently was forced :
Amid whose swift half intermitted burst
Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail
Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher's flail :
And 'mid these dancing rocks at once and ever
It flung up momently the sacred river,
Five miles meandering with a mazy motion
Through wood and dale the sacred river ran,
Then reached the caverns measureless to man,
And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean :
And 'mid this tumult Kubla heard from far
Ancestral voices prophesying war !
The shadow of the dome of pleasure
Floated mid way on the waves ;
Where was heard the mingled measure
From the fountian and the caves.
It was a miracle of rare device,
A sunny-pleasure dome with caves of ice !
A damsel with a dulcimer
In a vision I once saw :
It was an Abyssinian maid,
And on her dulcimer she played,
Singing of Mount Abora
Could I revive within me
Her symphony and song,
To such a deep delight 'twould win me
That with music loud and long,
I would build that dome in air
That sunny dome ! those caves of ice !
And all who heard should see them there,
And all should cry, Beware ! Beware !
His flashing eyes, his floating hair !
Weave a circle round him thrice,
And close your eyes with holy dread,
For he on honey-dew has fed,
And drunk the milk of Paradise.

History:
I origionally started a group called `Evil' in 1993. It included myself
(under the names of Armageton and Errorlover) as a coder and graphician.
We put out two cheezy demos (large intros?) called `Evil' and
`Psycho-delic', as well as three or four BBS adverts. Evil disbanded
because I moved, and because I became generally a much more cheerful
person :).
Earlier this summer I started writing a demo which will be released soon,
not having much luck composing tunes myself, I recruited my friend Burnout.
'Hey!', I decided, 'Why not get a few more people, and then have a
demogroup!' So Xanadu was formed.
As for the demo we are writing, it is about halfway finished, and should
be released near the end of the summer.

Source Code:
In order to help others learn, we will distribute source code to all
of our demos. The source may not be released at the same time as the demo
itself, but it will be released. This is in the hope that others will learn
from it and adopt the same philosoply, and release their code or ideas and
we will learn from that.
