Poetic Systems
Panel Discussion
The panel discussion Poetic Systems looks at system-theoretical approaches at the nexus of art and architecture. Where can system theory, a sociological concept, be applied outside of its original discipline? Which dimensions are opened up by artistic research, an artistic viewpoint or Art Thinking in combination with system theory - and which new points of intersection emerge? Speakers with backgrounds in sociology, architecture, art and scientific research gather here to share their insights on this topic.
Immersify – Frontiers of European Media Creation

In order to transform this new kind of media from a niche phenomenon to widespread practice, the Ars Electronica Futurelab and four partners from all over Europe are working on a common research project, Immersify. At the Panel Discussion at the Open Futurelab, project partners and involved artists gather to speak about the new generation of immersive media applications.
FUNGUAGE - the FUN spirit in the future
Panel Discussion
What is the future of playfulness? How can we work on this future in the present, in the midst of our current societies?

FUNGUAGE is a new form of language that enables humans and non-living material to communicate more effectively, creating a speculative scenario that uses FUN as a universal language, transcending cultural boundaries.
