Piksel - www.piksel.no - is a yearly event for artists and developers working with Free Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) for realtime processing of
video and sound. It will take place at BEK - the Bergen Centre for Electronic Art, in Bergen, Norway from october 29. to november 7. 2004.

The first Piksel event was arranged in november 2003, and gathered around 30 artists/developers from all parts of the world. It consisted of artistic/technical presentations, coding workshops and live performances. All activities were documented in a daily blog: http://www.piksel.no/log.html. One of the results from the event was the initiation of the Piksel Video Framework for ‘interoperability between various free software applications
dealing with video manipulation techniques’ - http://www.piksel.org.
