Out of the Black and White: Unveiling the LGM 2026 Visual Identity

The black-and-white placeholder is gone. The new visual identity for LGM 2026 is live. We re:wired classical halftone printing into a real-time digital effect. The new design is built on custom WebGL2 shaders, algorithmic variable fonts, and animated screen angles.

#Transparency

We’re happy to say that all proposals have been accepted! The program features 20 presentations and 9 parallel sessions spread across three blocks, including 7 workshops, one hackathon, and one BoF.

There may still be a few small adjustments to the schedule, and we might even be able to squeeze in one or two late talk submissions—but overall, the program is shaping up beautifully and all available slots are nearly full.

#What’s next?

* Registrations will open soon, so stay tuned!
* We are also preparing to launch a design update within the week!
