resizing an image to reduce resolution (for art reasons)
I want to use Python to "resize" an image to make the physical size of the image larger without increasing the number of pixels in the image. This will result hopefully in a very low resolution highly pixelated image. I have tried creating a new image using PIL from Python and zooming in on it using the standard image viewer in my computer. Unfortunately it would not zoom in much.
Any ideas appreciated.

It seems that you don't want to resize the image since you want to keep the number of pixels the same. You probably want to change the DPI (see stackoverflow.com/a/27328679/1383366). Whether the correct size is displayed depends on the program that will show the image. To change the DPI using Python, see stackoverflow.com/a/9174789/1383366.
