That program is called 'blast', and it stored its images in main memory
(I believe that demo needed at least 32 megabytes of real memory...)
There are two other demos, 'cine' and 'cinebw', that store their images
in frame buffer memory; they both take over the entire screen, while
blast runs in its own window (cinebw handles black&white images, cine
does full-color RGB images).
