Art & Science
The basis of the „European Digital Art and Science Network“ is a big manifold network consisting of scientific mentoring institutions (ESA, CERN, ESO and Fraunhofer MEVIS), the Ars Electronica Futurelab and seven European cultural partners (Center for the promotion of science, RS – DIG Gallery, SK – Zaragoza City of Knowledge Foundation, ES – Kapelica Gallery / Kersnikova, SI – GV Art, UK – Laboral, ES – Science Gallery, IE. The EU funded project lasted from 2014 to 2017. The Online Archive of Ars Electronica provides an overview of the individual activities of the network and also delivers information about the network itself, the residency artists and the involved project partners and the jury.
SYMPOSIUM I.II.: RADICAL ATOMS – IMPACT AND EXPECTATIONS, organized by Ars Electronica
POSTCITY, FIS Stage 10.09.2016 SYMPOSIUM I.II. RADICAL ATOMS – IMPACT AND EXPECTATIONS Moderators: Hiroshi Ishii (US/JP), Christopher Lindinger (AT) Speakers: Carlo Ratti (IT), Joachim Sauter (DE), Tomotaka Takahashi (JP), Horst Hörtner (AT), Martina Mara (AT), Yoichi Ochiai (JP), Chiaki Hayashi (JP), Shiho Fukuhara (JP), David Benjamin (US) Taking work done by MIT’s Tangible Media Group and the Ars Electronica Futurelab as the point of departure, this part of the symposium will deal with how the evolution of Radical Atoms will be felt in various occupations, economic sectors and, by no means least of all, our everyday life. What impact will these new dynamic materials have on creative disciplines like art and architecture? What are the future prospects in robotic design? Will we someday encounter drones as airborne Radical Atoms? What happens when new materials are amalgamated with human DNA? And how will we, the users, be able to find our way in the dynamic techno-world of tomorrow? International pioneers and the Ars Electronica Futurelab’s expert staff gaze into a future of and with Radical Atoms. • Info: A symposium in the context of the European Digital Art & Science Network.
