Piksel is an annual festival for artists and developers working with free/open source software, hardware and art in Bergen. Dear friends, we would like to invite you to join the new online edition Piksel20. The future narrow, where you don’t want to go!, through the Piksel Cyber Salon, Pikselfliks LIVE and Pikselfliks online channels. The festival is presenting more than 85 local and international artists in this edition. Works challenging the pandemic times, where artists have explored strategies to overcome frustration. Projects made in the Quarantine 10 residencies produced by Piksel to be able to bring some artists to the city whilst they have some time to be together and create under better conditions. Manifestations of the power of the networks: the cultural Nordnes, a collaboration among the cultural organizations in the Nordnes neighbourhood in Bergen, the TransPiksel Abya Yala artists network from South America, and APO33 from France. The virtual space Piksel Cyber Salon, where we can meet with our avatars and see the festival exhibition. And at last, we rely on the power of the hybridization through 2 Piksel TV channels: Pikselfliks, presenting the astonishing video program and Pikselfliks LIVE, following the online program of concerts, artists presentations, workshops, interviews, and a 72 hours live AV performance.
