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
