Guests of the Event

Senior PR at GOG.com. He has been in the gaming industry for nearly 30 years, starting with tabletop RPGs as an editor for *Magia i Miecz*, followed by a stint at Metropolis Software; he is also the founder of Polygamia.pl and Poland's first video game podcast.

A long-time industry journalist. He has worked at Platige Image, Walkabout Games, and other companies. His experience spans every facet of the industry—media, marketing, publishing, the indie sector, and distribution. At GOG, he focuses primarily on game preservation and collaboration with cultural institutions. He is a board member of EFGAMP (European Federation of Game Archives, Museums and Preservation Projects).

Kamil "Gorgh" Trzaska is a programmer, game developer, and active participant in the international computer demoscene, associated with the Polish group Agenda and the global collective Hokuto Force, among others. An art historian by training, he successfully combines technical precision with artistic sensitivity in his projects.

His coding journey began with Atari computers, and his long-standing passion for retro hardware evolved into creating his own software, award-winning demos, and commercial video games (including LiteRally and The Rescue Expedition). In his productions, he demonstrates that classic platforms still hold enormous potential, skillfully combining nostalgia for bygone eras with fresh design ideas.

A lecturer at the AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow, a member of the "Trickster" Association and the "GameUP" Association, and an editor of law books and more.

He's always dreamed of slaying orcs with Aragorn, so from time to time he has to return to a game set in the "Lord of the Rings" universe. His research interests include the role of intellectual property law in contemporary pop culture, for example, calculating how much Weronika Marczak spent on trademark registration. He also believes the new "Highlander" starring Henry Cavill will be a masterpiece.

Łukasz Zmysło, known online as ZMASLO, is an internet creator and technology enthusiast whose YouTube channel boasts nearly 300,000 subscribers. From a young age, he's been involved with computer hardware, gaining popularity by going far beyond the confines of traditional electronics testing. His specialty is custom projects and technological experiments in the spirit of "what if"—from installing Linux on consoles, to playing games on a Lidl food processor, to pairing ancient processors with modern graphics cards like the RTX 3090.

Łukasz's natural habitat is both modern PCs and the world of retro gaming: old operating systems, rescuing computers from the trash, and repairing components bought for pennies. In his content, he combines technical knowledge with unquenchable curiosity, proving that almost anything can be done with hardware and software. On stage and off, ZMASLO inspires a genuine passion for modification, tinkering, and exploring the history of technology from a completely unconventional perspective.
