Assembler: "Light Speed Player", very fast MOD player routine
The "Light Speed Player" is, according to its own description, the "fastest MOD player ever". The routine written in Assembler is aimed at demo and game programmers who want to include background music in their works without losing significant CPU cycles. The efficiency of the player is achieved by a special file format into which the music pieces must be converted before playing.

Curiosity: DintWM - a "Tiling Window Manager" for Workbench
The principle of the Tiling Window Manager is mainly known in the Unix environment: In contrast to conventional interfaces, the individual windows do not overlap, instead they are arranged tile-like next to each other. With 'DintWM' such a window manager has now been implemented for AmigaOS for the first time.
Some animated screenshots on the Github website of the project illustrates DintWM, which is implemented as a commodity. Besides a status bar, which displays information about the various open windows, it also offers the "virtual workspaces" known from the Unix area.

Demoscene registered as inventory of intangible cultural heritage in Germany
Last Friday, the Conference of Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs added 20 new entries to the list of "Intangible Cultural Heritage", including the demoscene. The scene is thus automatically also part of UNESCO's World Cultural Heritage. What advantages this could have in practice is discussed by the news service "Tarnkappe" in a conversation with Tobias Kopka, one of the organisers of the demo party "Evoke", among others (in German).
