Piksel06
Next week I'm headed to Bergen Norway to speak about the Sheep at this conference:
Piksel06 - Hardware Politics - festival for free / libre and open source audiovisual SW, HW and ART. 12 -15 october 2006 in Bergen, Norway. 70 participants from 20 countries gather in Bergen for 4 days of exchanging art, code and ideas based on practical implementations of free culture. Piksel is an annual event for artists and developers working with free and open source audiovisual software. Part workshop, part festival, it is organised in Bergen, Norway, by the Bergen Centre for Electronic Arts (BEK) 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 free and open source software. The theme of Piksel06 - 'hardware politics' - brings in open hardware as a new focus area of vital importance in the fight for freedom of information and independent artistic expression in the digital domain.
