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

Raquel Meyers&rsquo; &ldquo;Picnic 002,&rdquo; combines wildfires in the Mediterranean with a screaming cyclops character inspired by Osamu Tezuka&rsquo;s manga. We see the fire through a first-person viewpoint, both in the background and through a smartphone camera in the foreground. She writes, &ldquo;This is an anthropic and barbaric disrupted redundancy.
A promotional GIF for a Dark Enlightenment Holiday. A roadside ruin for a digital art picnic. Enjoy!&rdquo; 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.
