Demoscene on 8-bit machines. People are still creating crazy demos on 40 year old computers like Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, or Sinclair Spectrum. Demoscene on modern PCs are active too, but not as interesting or mind-blowing as people rotating filled cubes at 50fps on a C64.
Since those machines have fixed configurations, it's easier to assess the level of technical achievements.
Yesterday, I watched a C64 demo on Youtube that featured Donald Trump's face[1]. It's such a fantastic cross-over of 40 year old tech with memes of 2020's. I find it fascinating.
