a previous Piksel participant and want to share with us your<br>
experience, this section is yours. Selected articles from the open
call<br>
together with some curated texts from Piksel artists and
colleagues<br>
will be included in the Piksel 20 years book.<br>
<br>
Piksel will go hybrid again. Screen-based artworks and PikselSavers
