Welcome to Planet B - Deep Space
There are many concepts to combat the climate crisis, but which measures are the most promising? "Welcome to Planet B", the new program by the Ars Electronica Futurelab, lets visitors of the Deep Space 8K choose: In a virtual reality based on data from Earth, they decide on various climate issues to better assess the consequences.
Ars Electronica Futurelab: Life Ink Exhibition
Wacom Co., Ltd. (JP); Ars Electronica Futurelab (AT)
In the Life Ink exhibition, the Ars Electronica Futurelab presents wearable gear for the real-time visualization of brainwave and body signals as digital brush strokes, called Life Ink. The project explores the inner mechanism of creativity in our brain and body to develop a new form of ink. Life Ink is part of the lab's Future Ink research project with Wacom, with workshops and demonstrations on Space Ink, Bio Ink and Life Ink throughout the Festival.

In the Life Ink exhibition, the Ars Electronica Futurelab presents wearable gear for the real-time visualization of brainwave and body signals as digital brush strokes, called Life Ink. The project explores the inner mechanism of creativity in our brain and body to develop a new form of ink. In the workshop some of the visitors can try out the gear, creating their own Life Ink. Life Ink is part of the lab's Future Ink research project with Wacom, with Festival workshops and demonstrations.
Ars Electronica Futurelab: Bio Ink Experience

In the Bio Ink Experience, visitors draw and write with living ink comprised of various microorganisms. The data from Wacom pens and tablets is digitally extracted while the artworks morph into beautiful patterns in a new ecosystem of creativity. Bio Ink is part of the lab's Future Ink research project: To experience the latest developments, visit the brand-new exhibition on Life Ink in the Ars Electronica Center with prototype demonstrations and a performance during the Festival.
Re-Writing the Script Workshop
Denise Hirtenfelder (AT)
The end is a frightening phenomenon for humankind, but our relationship to it has changed. The global North lives in a society of endless opportunities, yet we are stuck in a culture of impermance. The workshop "Re-Writing the Script - A New Relationship to Finitude" urges us to look back at our present as if it was already history.

Futurelab Day
DO, 8. September
Das Ars Electronica Futurelab ist der Think-and-Do-Tank der Ars Electronica, der in einem inspirierenden Spannungsfeld zwischen Disziplinen und transnationaler Zusammenarbeit neue Konzepte für eine autonome Zukunftsgesellschaft entwickelt und dabei den Menschen in den Mittelpunkt seiner Forschung stellt.
Ars Electronica Futurelab: Dataspace: Russia/Ukraine.Deep Impacts
Nikkei Innovation Lab: Hiroyuki Watanabe (JP), Nobuyuki Oishi (JP), Takeshi Yamada (JP), Akihito Takei (JP), Masami Fujita (JP), Ars Electronica Futurelab: Arno Deutschbauer (AT), Manuel Dobusch (AT), Nicolas Naveau (FR, AT), Hideaki Ogawa (JP), Raphael Schaumburg-Lippe (AT), Julian Zauner (AT)
DATASPACE proposes a "newspaper of the future": Here, the Ars Electronica Futurelab and financial newspaper Nikkei's Innovation Lab demonstrate, how art and journalism can help to listen carefully to facts and think deeply rather than just consuming and reacting to news. The first project focuses on the profound impact Russia's war on Ukraine has all around the world now and in the future - inviting visitors into a sort of Zen garden of data, using the unique infrastructure of Deep Space 8K.
Ars Electronica Futurelab: Night Performances
To bring the Futurelab Day on Thursday to a fitting close, in the evening the Ars Electronica Futurelab invites everyone to join the Night Performances: Visitors can enjoy a wide range of experiences — from the lab’s latest work to fascinating art performances, including world-class piano and dance with stunning visuals in the unique setting of Deep Space 8K, a giant immersive environment developed by the Ars Electronica Futurelab.
