2nd place, Squidopus Famelica, a very nice story-driven 64K intro:

Live Shader Showdown

Live Shader Showdown

I like (watching) live shader programming as a form of interactive programming. These showdowns aren't that great for displaying the craft IMO because there is no interaction with the music. But obviously the results still are quite impressive. The live shader programming mildly is what 4K PC intros are nowadays anyway, except that the 4K PC intros are not created in front of a live audience.

Golden Egg by Gaspode - technically maybe not that challenging, but very nice composition and design

Razor1911 - Razor1911 - Depeche Mode casts a long shadow, but still a great demo
