While I am not familiar with the subject in question, one way would be to use a custom image and use it as an emissive shader.

Obviously you can find a better image (more pixelated) or make your own and use some filter in photo editors app like Photoshop, Affinity, Gimp or whichever you prefer. Photoshop has a bunch of filter under the category Pixelate. Affinity also has a filter under the Distort category called Pixelate and I'm sure Gimp also has one.
