Introduction
History of tiny effects
Sizecoders think in size categories. For MSDOS, these categories are 256b, 128b, 64b and 32b. These are the standards of one of the biggest demoscene archives, www.pouet.net. There is no 16b category, although many tiny effects can be implemented in 16 bytes. Almost of the effects of "Memories" have been coded and optimized by me before, and mostly the implementations were attempts to reduce an already existing effect in size, or do something similar in less size. Reducing the size in this case means, reducing it to the (one of the) next lower 2^N category. For example i might have seen an effect done in 33 to 64 bytes, and then reduced the size to 32 bytes or less. Almost everytime i moved an effect to a lower category, i submitted the resulting tiny program to a demoscene party which allowed remote entries in the 256b category. In this section i will introduce the effects and mention the origins and authors.

The origin of this effect is my own "Kasparov 16b" (https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=75912)
