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of Hannes Leopoldseder, one of the founders of Ars Electronica, which comprises a significant collection of digitized historical documents.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

CyberArts 2015

Documentation of the 2015 Prix Ars Electronica. Lavishly illustrated and containing texts by the prize-winning artists and statements by the juries that singled them out for recognition, this volume showcases the works honored by the 2015 Prix Ars Electronica. The Prix Ars Electronica is the world’s most time-honored media arts competition. Winners are awarded the coveted Golden Nica statuette. Ever since its inception in 1987, the Prix Ars Electronica has been honoring creativity and innovativeness in the use of digital media. This year, experts from all over the world evaluated 2,889 submissions from 75 countries in 5 categories: Computer Animation / Film / VFX, Hybrid Art, Digital Musics & Sound Art, [the next idea] voestalpine Art and Technology Grant, and the u19 – CREATE YOUR WORLD competition for young people. Since 2014 a new category has been dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the visionary pioneers of media art—the men and women whose artistic, technological, and social achievements have decisively influenced and advanced the development of new artistic directions. This publication provides insights into the achievements of this year’s winner of the Golden Nica honoring Visionary Pioneers of Media Art.
