"In this presentation I will outline the inconvenient truths about color management and display calibration in a lighthearted but technical way. I'll discuss things like changing the display gamma for ambient lighting conditions and explain why everyone should sit in a dark room and paint the walls gray. I'm going to try to cover areas like wide gamut displays, D50 v.s. D65 temperatures, calibration v.s. profiling and will name-and-shame some non-color-managed applications that we can't live without."
