Piksel08
examines the other side of code, an alternative side to a hard-coded
reality of work and play. Open hardware and free software project a
utopic vision, yet exist within economies of capital, the dream factory
of
mainstream technology. Within the chance meeting of sewing machine and
umbrella on the dissecting table, hardware and software are flattened.
Piksel08:
code dreams explores the dreams of this soft machine; bachelors coding
for pleasure, reverse engineering paranoiac constructs of the real,
automatic coding practice, soft hardware, and everyday magic.
