  Piksel[1] is an international event for artists and developers working with
open source audiovisual software, hardware & art. Part workshop, part
festival, it is organised in Bergen, Norway, by the Bergen Centre for
Electronic Arts (BEK) [2] and involves participants from more than a dozen
countries exchanging ideas, coding, presenting art and software projects,
doing workshops, performances and discussions on the aesthetics and politics
of FLOSS & art.

  This years event - Piksel07 - continues the exploration of free/libre and
open source audiovisual code and it's myriad of expressions, and also
investigates further the open hardware theme introduced at Piksel06.

  Piksel07 is done in collaboration with Gallery 3,14[3] which will host this
years exhibition. Piksel is organised by BEK and a community of core
participants including members of collectives dyne.org, goto10.org, ap/xxxxx,
