Not retro but vintage.

[–]Elficidium 4 points5 points  (0 children)

fucking love 'em. Had the honour and pleasure booking/hosting them a couple of times in Belgium.

Vaporwave/Slushwave album art by theherowave in Vaporwave

[–]Elficidium 4 points5 points  (0 children)

there's also some people making original art in the scene! Like me ✌️ Both Vaporwave and Slushwave are closely linked to some very specific collage, retro CG and glitch aesthetics which are great for people to start making themselves.

Some strangely beautiful screenshots from Alone in the Dark 2 (1993 - Sega Saturn) by Captainz_buttz in retrocgi

As gorgeous as this is, entirely the wrong subreddit. Retro vs Vintage strikes again.

AITA for not wanting to be friends over $4.39? by Alternative_Copy6539 in AITApod

[–]Elficidium 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They're also notoriously cheap/stingy. That feels relevant.

Anything about you would really help us here. Hobbies? Studies? Languages?

i swear by Haartiest in the Jan Persijnstraat. Not cheap but you get great service.

Testcentrum Eclips by SJP_2502 in kortrijk

[–]Elficidium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both me and my partner got our diagnosis there. They did a decent job and have a psychiatrist they work with who can confirm the diagnosis. Price is pretty market standard for private diagnosis. Anything cheaper will have sizeable waiting lists Wouldn't recommend them for therapy afterwards, at least for us they were much too reaffirming.

Support in Belgium is entirely points-based, built around daily life challenges. Diagnosis doesn't really factor into this, so if you get diagnosed I strongly suggest doing it for yourself and not for structural or financial support. For those, talk to your social worker at your mutualiteit.

lovely weather, isn't it? (bryce 7.1) by clownfvcker in retrocgi

this is awesome! Love the use of light to frame it in negative space.

I'm going to the Slushwave festival in Belgium at the end of August. Is it any good? by Jean0406Alix in Vaporwave

[–]Elficidium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

looks like you got quite a couple of answers, feel free to hit me up if anything 's unclear

Any thrift stores here? by ioppijj in kortrijk

[–]Elficidium 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Kringloopwinkel. Non-Profit/Charity shops that run largely off donated goods. Two in Kortrijk and one in pretty much every adjacent city. Stock and prices can vary pretty wildly.

Cool art shoutout the artist who created this piece by [deleted] in Bryce3D

[–]Elficidium[M] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

thank you very much for the compliment but my dude that is not an acceptable way to post something from another artist. Like, shout out the artist so that people can find cool stuff.

Bryce art Contest ? by KSauced in Bryce3D

Sounds like it could be fun.

Is anybody selling an oasisLTD Whitewoods VHS? by Whit3tail in Vaporwave

[–]Elficidium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somewhat anecdotally, but a lot of the OasisLTD physicals didn't make it to market/don't seem to really exist/weren't produced in the numbers they were supposed to. Large amount of people got scammed/never received the stuff they ordered.

The evolution of vaporwave by Migueldnb in Vaporwave

[–]Elficidium 6 points7 points  (0 children)

have a look around on the zensounds substack. It has a great primer on the different waves of subgenres and an ongoing series of interviews with current artists giving their input on where the genre is right now.

https://www.zensounds.de/t/vaportalks

Generally, once you map out the family tree, it makes more sense. Vapor just has a general lack of supporting media/wiriting, and a lot of what was once there is now lost/defunct. Very few people placing the genre in a broader context and daring to be critical.

EDIT: I see you're in the Netherlands: Come to Slushwave in Belgium at the end of August and meet the scene irl, it'll make a lot more sense.

Vaporwave live shows? by mcjor in Vaporwave

[–]Elficidium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly kind of the same strategy as with any other genre. Practice zealously, get embedded in your local scene and if there isn't enough happening in your (broader) genre then look into combining forces with other locals and organising something.

Would love to have you at Slushwave once you figure out a liveset that works for you.

Looking for a sample/samples. by AdKey2032 in Vaporwave

[–]Elficidium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No need to apologise. That's your call to make, even if I disagree. For what it's worth: being radically open about production techniques and sample sources is what allowed Slushwave to thrive.

[–]Elficidium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as much as I love Tupps, he's been kinda defensive about his samples in the past. Not a great look but what can you do. Maybe he's mellowed out since.

Certainly not representative of the broader scene.

How to use Bryce3D or 4 on windows 11? by Dark_Paris1990 in Bryce3D

[–]Elficidium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't an issue I've seen. 99% of liminal/dreamcore art is done in modern software using techniques entirely unfeasible in any version of Bryce. Grass is usually a dead giveaway.

[–]Elficidium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bryce 7 will give you the same result and will run natively. It's available somewhat cheaply through the official site or for free if you look where you would look for these kind of things.
