36 percent of workers in Upper Austria say their workplace has changed a lot in the past five years, and as many as 21 percent think that their work will be done by a computer or a machine in the next ten years… “Working in and on the future” leaves some hopeful, others anxious, but no one is indifferent. Ars Electronica and the Upper Austrian Chamber of Labour are therefore dedicating a joint exhibition to the question of how our working world will change and what framework conditions are needed to ensure that this change is economically and socially sustainable and fair.

An online press tour with Gerfried Stocker (Artistic Director of Ars Electronica), Veronika Krenn (Producer Exhibitions Ars Electronica Center / Festival Prix Exhibitions) and Amir Bastan (artist and staff member at the Laboratory for Creative Robotics at the Linz University of the Arts).
