The preparations for this years’ Ars Electronica Festival “A New Digital Deal” are already in full swing. Last year we successfully introduced our hybrid online garden concept with many partners all over the world. They are not only producing a variety of top-notch content for our online festival, but will also be hosting many local events. With “Inside Festival” we want to share our excitement about the upcoming festival with you! Live from our streaming studio in Linz we will give you a sneak-peek of our partner gardens’ program as well as our local events in Linz – once weekly in July and even twice weekly in August. The series will cover different topics and themes, e.g. Coded Biases or the “Perspective of the Youth” by create your world, our well-known festival format for young people. If you want to get even more background info’s and snippets of the festival go check out our blog at https://ars.electronica.art/aeblog. See you at the festival!
The first session of Inside Festival features our festival curators Gerfried Stocker, Martin Honzik, Veronika Liebl and Christl Baur, who will introduce and discuss this years’ topic “A New Digital Deal”. Why is this a burning topic? Are the cards being reshuffled in the digital world? Furthermore, they will introduce our “community festival projects”, in which all our festival partners are going to participate, such as “Taste your Soil” and “The Experts of the Future”. The wonderful work by masharu (NL/RU) “The Museum of Edible Earth” will also not go unmentioned.
