SUN, September 11

The Prix Ars Electronica is the world’s most time-honored media arts competition since 1987, and from its inception, it has kept working as a trend barometer that continues to change with the times. Along with the CyberArts exhibition, the Prix Forum is always one of highlights of the Ars Electronica Festival and a great opportunity to get to know the Prix Ars Electronica winning artists.

In keeping with the festival theme, both speakers and audiences of the STUDIOTOPIA Day conference program are challenged to reflect creatively and critically about ecological and sociopolitical implications of the Anthropocene.
S+T+ARTS Day
FRI, September 9

Guided by the belief that artistic perspectives can contribute to innovation beyond the arts and culture realm, the S+T+ARTS initiative of the European Commission strives to give artists a leading role in research and innovation activities with an impact on industry and society.  Through a series of talks, discussions, and networking events the conference addresses the ways in which Innovation through art-driven interdisciplinary collaborations can contribute to mapping responsibilities as well as solutions for challenges posed in both the digital and the analogue world.
Futurelab Day

create your world

From September 7 to 11, the create your world Festival in KEPLER'S GARDENS once again invites the young generation in particular to experiment and try things out. Especially when we look into the future, we have to deal with an increasing variety of challenges. Perhaps, however, we are not thinking about a future in a hundred years, but "only" about tomorrow as a first step.
