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of Hannes Leopoldseder, one of the founders of Ars Electronica, which comprises a significant collection of digitized historical documents.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 1986

In 1986, Ars Electronica was re-designed. Up to then, the Festival had taken place every second September as part of the International Bruckner Festival; from 1986 onwards, it has been held annually. In 1986, Ars Electronica was organized as a festival on its own in June. Rearrangements were made for the Brucknerhaus Linz and the Regional Studio of the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation ORF in Upper Austria as far as their cooperation in the Festival's organization was concerned. As for contents, the Brucknerhaus shifted its focus towards avant-garde, whereas the ORF concentrated on computer culture.
