What is the broader context of the mission?

“The Demoscene, which is born at the heart of the home computer revolution, shows how skills and creativity can be stimulated and implemented in a dynamic cultural practice adopted to digital contexts. Many of its techniques and mindsets became core techniques and influences of the digital change and are still vibrant today. Seven decades after the invention of computers, we think it’s time to push for the next step to take born-digital culture seriously as part of our cultural heritage, starting an initiative to bring the demoscene onto the list UNESCO intangible world cultural heritage. So we invite all sceners and non-sceners to join us and support the initiative in the upcoming years.”

What is the role of Inércia in this initiative?

After the successful breakthrough in Finland, Germany and Poland, where the Demoscene was accepted in their national UNESCO cultural heritage lists, more countries are needed in order to push its status into the intangible world cultural heritage. In Portugal, there is a long list of traditional arts and crafts that compete with each other to be accepted in the national cultural heritage list. Our goal is to compile and submit an application to the portuguese UNESCO office so that we can work with our affiliates around the world and bring the Demoscene to a global cultural heritage status.
