Ars Electronica Research Institutes

An initiative of the Ars Electronica Futurelab is represented by the Ars Electronica Research Institutes, consisting of the Ars Electronica Research Institute Knowledge for Humanity (by Eveline Wandl-Vogt) and the Ars Electronica Research Institute Auditory Cultures (by Werner Jauk). This organizational form acts as an open membrane for Ars Electronica, allowing closer collaborations with the academic world. After its first incarnation as an Ars Electronica Research Institute last year, Eveline Wandl-Vogt’s Ars Electronica Research Institute Knowledge for Humanity will also host a program at this year’s festival.

Garden of … Knowledge for Humanity

Garden of … Knowledge for Humanity reflects on the most recent work by the Ars Electronica Research Institute Knowledge for Humanity, in its global and unique context bridging the gap between academic knowledge and socially relevant applications.

In this years’ interactions, the mission statements of last year are introduced as live experiments that you can be an active part of.

The presented work is focused on the following three core areas:

  • Digital humanism and critical reflections on technology
  • Knowledge for Emergency – COVID19 related experiments and interactions
  • Accelerating /academic/ knowledge to reach the Sustainable Development Goals

It reflects our approaches:

  • of Humanity Centered Design (Federico Donelli)
  • of art-based, experimental knowledge co-creation
  • against a background of Open Innovation methods and practices / in science.

Garden of … Knowledge for Humanity celebrates the wealth of diversity, addressing various formats and audiences, through:

  • analogue canvases and interactive visualizations
  • virtual, participatory interactions
  • speculative future design experiments

This series of interactions is curated by Eveline Wandl-Vogt and uniquely designed for Ars Electronica Festival 2020, especially against the backdrop of COVID19-related virtualizations.

You are invited on a journey of discovery aiming to drive social, innovation-based activism and to critically reflect on what we call “intelligence” (artificial and human likewise) by stimulating you to join the community of purpose that is Ars Electronica Research Institute Knowledge for Humanity.
