Alchemists of the Future – The Journey
Ars Electronica Futurelab (AT)

In this journey, the Ars Electronica Futurelab’s Alchemists of the Future invite you to embark on a tour through their vision and ideas for the future, which are distributed throughout the Ars Electronica Center. Take a peek inside the black box of the technologies of the future to uncover what is behind them. Gain in-depth knowledge about contemporary trends and how they are being applied in broad areas of our daily lives. Let yourself be taken into the future through Guided Journeys by our info trainers, Special Guided Journeys by artists and researchers from the Ars Electronica Futurelab or online.

DATA TOUR D’ITALIE PANEL
Panel guests: Federica Fragapane (IT), Michela Milano (IT), Iolanda Pensa (IT), Valentina Tanni (IT), Moderated by: Federico Bomba (IT)

How can data help us in better understanding environmental and social challenges? Data are not good or bad, they simply are. Their aim is, or it should be, empowering our knowledge about the complex ecosystem we live in. But they do not speak for themselves: someone - or something - must present them in a shape so that they can produce new awareness.

Critical Data
Martin Zeilinger (AT/UK)

Are we witnessing a coming of “creative AI,” and the emergence of a data science that will overcome the existential perils of the Anthropocene? Or is AI, as some are warning, about to emancipate capital from humanity (rather than the other way around)? Building on the concept of algorithmic adjudication and its manifestations in tools such as AI-based digital rights management systems, this talk explores tactical uses of AI through which artists critique and disrupt the outsourcing of codified decision-making to computational agency.
