A P1×3L is the atomic unit of digital and generative art. It can’t be quantified. A P1×3L is vibrant and alive. Artists choreograph P1×3Ls and P1×3Ls possess artists. P1×3Ls are ideas about image-making that transcend the technology they flow through. 

Each of the artists in the P1×3L exhibition has pushed the boundaries of digital and generative art in their own ways. As a counterpoint to the stream of technology being developed to make itself invisible, these artists foreground the materiality of their medium. And at a time when online spaces for digital and generative art are at the highest energy in over 20 years, this group of artists, who committed themselves to these fields a decade ago, remain vibrant creators. Their past work has stood the tests of time and their current work pushes forward. —Casey Reas

Feral File #006 - P1x3L

In describing her &ldquo;Picnic 001,&rdquo; Raquel Meyers writes, &ldquo;We keep going backwards no matter what,&rdquo; and she calls it a &ldquo;decoration for high-resolution screens. A roadside picnic for civil care.&rdquo; Raquel lives in the Basque Country in Spain, and within this artwork she brings together the industrial heritage of that area, the new dress code for women in Afghanistan, and the mediation of the smartphone. Raquel created the frames of this GIF animation with techniques she developed over years of engaging with vintage computer technologies, specifically Teletext systems and Commodore 64 computers.
