Publications

The Print Archive of Ars Electronica documents publications from 1979 onwards in the fields of Cyber Arts/Prix, Festival and special publications, including audiovisual supplements, museum brochures, updates, and other special editions. All texts and articles are fully searchable and readable. Festival catalogues are available as PDFs in their original layout from 2000 onwards; for earlier years, only the OCR text is preserved, but these are also readable. CyberArts catalogues are complete PDFs, while catalogues prior to 2005 were physically digitized, as the original print data no longer exists.

Since 2024, the archive also contains the estate of Hannes Leopoldseder, one of the founders of Ars Electronica, which comprises a significant collection of digitized historical documents.

Ars Electronica Festival

Catalogue: Ars Electronica 82 im Rahmen des Internationalen Brucknerfestes Linz

Ars Electronica 1982 focused on the topic of "Sky Art". Linz became the first European station of the Sky Art Conference developed by Otto Piene at the Centre for Advanced Visual Studies at the M.I.T.. The Sky Art Conference provided a forum for artists and scientists meeting the challenge of space. The core objects of the Festival - the Linz Cloud of Sound and Giorgio Battistelli's "Linz Steel Opera" - paid tribute to the social structures of the city of Linz. An additional point of interest was the topic of "Future", ranging from science-fiction to industrial robots.
