Raquel Meyers (Cartagena, 1977) is a Spanish video artist, often using low-res graphics to create surreal imagery and eerie atmospheres. She has made video clips and VJ sets for many of the more prominent 8-bit musicians (Glomag, Bubblyfish, Goto80) and also worked with electro and noise acts such as Rubeck and Tubular Balls. Meyers was formerly part of Entter (2000-2007), and has worked with print design, installations, and websites. She is perhaps one of the more consistent pixel artists, although she is currently exploring other expressions to create confusion and delight.

Since 2004 she has performed at for example Tokyo Blip Festival (jp), Ctrl Alt Dance Festival (dn), Taktfrei Festival für freie Musik (de), Plaza Plus (nl), Shift Festival (ch), Blip Festival Europe (dn), Norberg Festival (se), Transmediale (de), HAIP Festival (si), VisionR (fr), Mapping Festival (ch), Cimatics (br), Electro Circus Festival (fr), Abertura (pt), Laboral centro de arte (es), La casa encendida (es), Vision’R (fr), LEV Festival (es), A MAZE Festival (de), MID_E (es), FIB Heineken Festival (es) and at venues such as BilbaoArte (es), CODA Museum (nl), Gallery Oro (se), Metro Dance Club (es), Mikrogalleriet (dn), Caixaforum (es), La Gare de Coustellet (fr), iMAL (br).
