It seems that the display market has more or less plateaued when it comes to squeezing pixels into the same amount of space as before. As such, it is finally audio’s turn to emphasize how equally important it is in immersive experiences.

Creative does have an answer for that with the SXFI AIR, its first headphones to support its nascent audio technology.

It's not necessarily DEFINITELY going to make its way to a final Adobe product, but we can most certainly hope that it's headed in that direction.
Forget 160 characters. GIFs and videos are the new thing in social media and the Interwebs. Creating those, however, aren't exactly easy unless you've got a knack for video editing. Or you have tools that simplify the task. The latter is what Adobe is aiming for with the new Premiere Rush. Revealed as Project Rush a few months back, this new member of Adobe's suite practically puts an "all-in-one" video editor in the cloud, ready to export your latest masterpieces to YouTube, Facebook, and more.

A new Adobe Creative Cloud app was revealed this week at VidCon 2018, an app called Adobe Rush. This is a video editing app, but better than that, it's a video editing app that works on multiple platforms and stores data in the cloud.

Well, Twitch has officially launched into unknown territories. This week begins the full broadcast of all 403 episodes of The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross. This launch is being done to launch a second Twitch homepage for Twitch Creative. This second homepage will be partnering with Adobe as a launch sponsor, and the page won't necessarily be all about gaming. Instead, this page will be about artists - and maybe we'll see some game developers creating happy little sprites, too, who knows.
