(Linz, February 13, 2013) The accent is on discovering, learning and having fun together as a family group this weekend at the Ars Electronica Center. Family Days on February 16-17, 2013 will feature high-energy tours of the AEC’s exhibits. At Deep Space LIVE Family, Linz photographer Florian Holter will present images and experiences gleaned during the course of his international project “Bring a smile to our world.”

Family Tour
Saturday & Sunday / 11:30 AM & 3:30 PM both days

The Family Tour begins with an entertaining and informative tour of the Ars Electronica Center, a presentation that also raises some thought-provoking questions about our future. For instance, how can we best configure our coexistence with robots. Or whether, in five years, we’ll already be able to turn out a new pair of sneakers at home on a 3D printer.
