Silly Venture 2014 Atari XL/XE Invitation
=========================================

This is an invitation for the [demoscene](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoscene) party
called [Silly Venture](http://sillyventure.eu/). The invitation runs on a PAL version
of an [Atari XL/XE](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_8-bit_family) computer
equipped with 128 KB RAM.

The invitation presents animations ripped from
[Das Omen](http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=9352),
[Bank Bang!](http://a8.fandal.cz/detail.php?files_id=1468)
and [World Karate Championship](http://a8.fandal.cz/detail.php?files_id=4616),
accompanied with the [Mahna Mahna song](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8N_tupPBtWQ)
sampled to 4 bits at 15556 Hz.

Party information can be transferred to a smartphone or a tablet
by scanning [Data Matrix barcodes](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Matrix)
containing: a Google Map link, [iCalendar](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar) event data,
party website link and a "mailto" link.
All codes are generated on the Atari using my
[Data Matrix encoder](http://github.com/pfusik/datamatrix6502).

The invitation is [DEFLATE](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEFLATE)-compressed
and decompressed using my [inflate routine](http://github.com/pfusik/zlib6502).
