Ars Electronica Garden Newcastle 2021 presents an inspirational response to the Global Digital Deal from the Australian coastal region of the Hunter. A place that is quickly evolving and transforming into a new epicenter for collaboration between Art, Science, Technology & Society. On the back of the 2020 Garden, Art Thinking Australia (Ambassadors of Ars Electronica) have found a home deep inside a unique creative & cultural ecosystem that sees academia, industry, governance and artists working alongside each other to create the city of the future. Together with our partners at the University of Newcastle’s FASTlab and City of Newcastle, our garden’s philosophy is to lead with open arms. We have invited leading figures from the Australian Art-Science community to participate in developing our unique perspective towards the New Deal. Locally, we focus on “citizens as stakeholders” and the garden is curated with the ethos of “open, accessible and transdisciplinary education for all of society.” We believe a future smart city means smarter future citizens and therefore our young minds (U18), the real future experts, will take center stage to calibrate the compass and help to navigate the digital impact of our tomorrow. This free and accessible platform is spread across several locations including Honeysuckle Foreshore, Clyde Street Precinct, Newcastle Museum and the brand new Q Building – where Creative Industries & Innovation Technology Startups collide.
