This issue looks at pixel from a technical, ethical, artistic, and and economic viewpoint.00Essays:0- Giacomo Mercuriali discusses how computer-generated pictures, such as appeared to defame Jamel Kashoggi, rely on the same ideas of veracity as in traditional photography.0- Kyveli Lignou-Tsamantani looks at the relationship between pixelisation, atrocity images and spectatorship through the work what remains by belit sa?, offering an ethical reading of the use of pixels.0- Alvy Ray Smith, co-founder of Pixar Studios, has given permission to republish his memo that technically lays out what a pixel is. He is currently working on the 'Biography of the Pixel', which is now seven years in the making.0- The section?Devices? enters the discussion about the pixel from the viewpoint of a camera, the Digital Bolex. Caszimir Cleutjens discusses this spastically anachronistic device with filmmaker Tanguy De Donder, who used the camera for his film 'Je suis un Monstre'.0- The section?Debates? restages a timely debate. Caszimir Cleutjens has put Lev Manovich and William J. Mitchell in a direct confrontation regarding the question if digital images are fundamentally different from traditional photography.0.
