Demos are programs that generate multimedia presentations in real-time while demo is running. This separates demos from animations that are not limited with this real-time constraint.

In 64k intro competition these programs are limited in size to 64 kilobytes on a high-end 2011 PC computer. 64 kilobytes is enough space to generate desired graphics and music algorithmically but doesn't enable usage of drawn graphics or recorded music.
