(Linz, Nov. 9, 2020) Get to know Artistic Journalism, an approach that can help journalists work on complex topics, gain new insights into climate change using satellite images from the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Earth observation facility and, as part of the Ars Electronica Center’s new digital school program, attend an online workshop for the first time that gives students a basic understanding of artificial intelligence. Once again this week, Ars Electronica Home Delivery will be delivering fascinating insights from the fields of art, technology and society directly into the living room, kitchen, office, children’s room or classroom. The audience is once again invited to ask questions or simply join in the conversation via Skype or YouTube comments.
