Ok to add some flashy kicker here ;-) :
"Exploring the thrilling possibilities of Modern Pixelart. This talk delves into how tools like Photoshop—and adaptable Krita/GIMP methods—can save time, prototype ideas freely. Perfect for retro enthusiasts and digital artists alike: hands-on and boundary-pushing techniques to fuel your own masterpiece."
This talk was originally was meant to be held October 2025 at Deadline https://www.demoparty.berlin/ a demoscene party in Berlin. (Each year there in beginning of october - som come to that party!)
Due to some reasons I couldn´t sadly attend, but it would be a shame if this material would be lost in time and space. Maybe some people can get some inspiration out of this stuff. If you do so - I would be happy. Then pay me back by visiting a demo party next to you,take part in the graphics competition and have some fun.
