PIKSEL21. REBOOT ME SOFTLY.
The 19th edition of the Piksel Festival for Electronic Art and Free
Technologies
November 18-21 2021
Bergen(NO)

Welcome to the 19th Edition of PIKSEL FESTIVAL!
Piksel is an annual festival for artists and developers working with
free/open source software, hardware and art in Bergen, Norway.

Dear friends, we would like to invite you to join us for the new
edition of Piksel, either in person, online, or even on TV!

Piksel festival has selected more than sixty artists presenting
projects, workshops, and live concerts. Themes ranging from gender
roles in computer games, to electronic literature or our overlords of
social media. REBOOT ME SOFTLY will address our post-pandemic state of
mind, in conflux with the altered state of the planet earth.
Vindicating forgotten languages from original communities, and also
reviving and re-interpreting extinct AI from Indian–American original
communities in South America.


PIKSEL21. REBOOT ME SOFTLY. The only cure for post-pandemic fever.
