HandsOn Me & the Machines - Phot: Ars Electronica / Birgit Cakir

Tours and Workshops for All Ages at Ars Electronica Center

At the Ars Electronica Center, visitors of all ages can explore, experiment, and learn through hands-on tours and interactive workshops. From guided explorations to creative, technology-driven activities, these experiences ignite curiosity and inspire discovery.

  • HandsOn AIxMusic

    Instruments that play by themselves? That must be the latest technology! Or is it?

  • HandsOn NeuroBionik

    There’s a worm in our robot! At least its brain is—because the nervous system of a worm can already be “copied” into a machine.

  • HandsOn Me & the Machines

    We take their recommendations, make decisions together, collaborate and even talk to them.

  • HandsOn 2nd Body Lab

    Have you ever worn a robot suit?

  • Creative Coding

    Verena Langthaler (AT)

    How can you create art with code? In the Creative Coding Mini Lab, programming becomes a creative tool.

  • Full Power!

    In this workshop you can produce hydrogen yourself and even use it as a means of propulsion.

  • Mic Check

    Using the microscope as a world exploration instrument, we zoom into the huge miniature world of the microcosm and observe the most unusual creatures such as tardigrades, solar animals, and rotifers.

  • Investigation Lab

    Uncover the truth in the Investigation Lab! In a world in which digital tools can easily manipulate reality, it is important for us to learn how to verify information and establish facts.

  • CSI Petridish

    A mysterious incident is causing a stir in the BioLab: Almost indestructible tardigrades have disappeared without a trace! In this hands-on thriller, you become microscope detectives who investigate this inexplicable disappearance.
