Global Warming and Human Responsibility

create your world Festival 2021
This year’s create your world festival takes its title very seriously and literally: It aims to provide opportunities to think about present and future scenarios in a lighthearted way. It offers a platform for young people to exchange ideas and have a good time together. Utopias may be created and unrealistic thoughts exchanged. Laughter is allowed and trust can be (re)built.

Theme Exhibition: Digital && Life
This year’s Ars Electronica Festival theme exhibition is dealing with the many different forms the relationship between the digital and all scales of life can assume. The artworks demonstrate the links technologies evolve to living things from the tiniest microbial organisms to the methods of examining our bodies and even shows the potential to facilitate the creation of life itself.
