That's truly amazing to me. I have been hunting around for any kind of "introduction to demoscene coding" type content for months now and found very little online. I'd love to see lectures like this - demoscene techniques presented by someone who teaches for a living...

When I finally assemble a full collection of "the classics" - your plasmas, bump maps, flames, twisters, etc. and can implement / explain them perhaps I'll put a few videos together myself. But I'm aware my coding is pretty sloppy!
