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of Hannes Leopoldseder, one of the founders of Ars Electronica, which comprises a significant collection of digitized historical documents.
Catalogue: Panic, yes/no
Panic, yes or no? Shouldn’t we have long been in a state of absolute panic by now? Why aren’t we? There seem to be countless reasons for panic. Or is it all just scaremongering? How long can hope last, and what will follow it? Panic does not arise from the mere fear of danger, but from the realization of its inevitability—the feeling of being defenselessly exposed to it, with no possibility of escape or control.
When fear can no longer be attributed to specific dangers and risks, it turns into panic; adrenaline is released, the heart rate accelerates, more blood is pumped through the veins, and the muscles tense. But fear makes us small and discouraged. Therefore, Ars Electronica 2025 poses the question how we can maintain and strengthen our momentum for the future. Artists, thinkers, activists, philosophers, practitioners, and citizens explore the status quo of our time, a time full of contradictions and uncertainty, and investigate the power of artistic work and impact in this time of profound upheaval.
