Before the big bang:
stories from the birth of digital art

Howard Pealmutter takes us back to the heady early days of digital art, a time when creativity collided with rapidly evolving technology and the possibilities seemed limitless. He shares stories of experimentation, innovation, and the pioneering spirit that drove artists to explore uncharted territory with clunky hardware and primitive software, pushing boundaries to transform pixels into expression.

We start at 2:30pm PST. We will be go for 2.5 hours structured meeting with a special bonus Unstructured bonus time at the very end of formal event talking about the nuts and bolts with nuts and bolts of YLEM featuring a with a live AI Graphic art workshop with the gurus to make the graphic for the next event.
