■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Piksel is involved in several off-festival activities throughout 2010, both
locally in Bergen, nationally and in collaborative projects internationally.
These activities are named Piksel Pulse.

■■ 1. ARCHIPELAGOS [summit]

Piksel participated in the Archipelagos project arranged by APO33 in Nantes
25-30 May 2010. Archipelagos is a collaboration between APO33 and ECOS that
seek to explore the gaps or in-between spaces of Art, philosophy,
architecture, urban, rural, ecological and social points of departure and
crossover. The project was formed as a summit and included a varied program of presentations, workshops, installations, walks and projections.
