Photos from my travels to Nuremberg for the #LibreGraphicsMeeting. The first photo is from a workshop at LGM, in this moment a demonstration of using an ink plotter and a joystick to play a game of worm on paper!
The jaw dropping sculpture is in Frankfurt, but it was on the way to Nuremberg. And the 4th photo is a monument to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, something I didn't even know existed until I was 25 or so! ...the declaration I mean, the monument I only just learned of.
Moving away from proprietary software is especially difficult for artists, since many of us are trapped within the #adobe ecosystem.
This is why I find #LGM2025 so exciting and hopeful!
Thankfully the organizers have made the conference videos available outside of #evilcorp #youtube etc to #peertube

I just caught up with some of the talks from the first day of this year's #libregraphicsmeeting @lgm in #Nuremberg. I would recommend you take a look at Simran's talk on #opensource video editing. It's a good overview on the available #foss toolkit and a deeper dive on #Olive, that motivated me to look into it again.
Aaaand last recording cut, will be online in ~20 minutes.
Thank you to all the speakers, volunteers and everyone else that made the #LibreGraphicsMeeting a really nice event to be at. Maybe we'll see each other again next year :)
Until then, enjoy watching all of the nice talks. We'll sure rewatch some of them ourselves! https://media.ccc.de/c/lgm2025

I just love the presentations on obviously passion driven projects at #libregraphicsmeeting. @tomsart right now is talking about his game about waterfalls.
I'll give a talk on PCB artwork with kicad at the libre graphics meeting. If you're curious tune in at 17:15. A recording will be available later. https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2025/ #libregraphicsmeeting #lgm25nbg
Having a very nice time at #LibreGraphicsMeeting :) I wonder if there's a similar event for audio? I know about #AudioDeveloperConference but I'm pretty sure it's not specific to free software. Also I like the fact that LGM is focused both on the developer- and the user-facing side (to some extent), whereas ADC is explicitly targeted towards developers
Hallo @Akaer ich hoffe, es geht Dir gut.
Ich bin gerade auf dem #LibreGraphicsMeeting in Nürnberg. Ich denke schon länger darüber nach, dass es mir gefallen würde, wenn #Offenbach öfter mal Host für kleinere #opensource Communitys wäre. Das @lgm ist zwar schon nicht soo klein, wäre aber aufgrund der #HfG bei uns eigentlich ein guter Match. Was hältst Du von der Idee. Ich schreibe die Tage mal 'ne Mail, wir können auch gern mal bei 'nem Kaffee sprechen.
Lieben Gruß, Marc
