Episodes: 24
The Ars Electronica Festival Podcast 2023-2024 captures a specific moment in time, born from the collaboration between Ars Electronica and Austrian radio Ö1. This series documents the vibrant, temporary world of the festival in Linz, preserving dialogues that might otherwise have been lost to the rush of the event. Each episode is a direct conversation with the international creators and thinkers who defined those years-artists, researchers, developers, activists, and entrepreneurs. Listeners hear them discuss not just finished projects, but the raw ideas, ethical questions, and personal encounters with emerging technologies that fuel their work. The discussions are grounded in the unique, collaborative atmosphere of the festival itself, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how these disciplines collide. While this podcast originally served as an audio companion to the annual gathering, its focus on the intersection of human creativity and technological change proved enduring. These recorded conversations ultimately laid the foundation for a continuing exploration, evolving into the year-round Ars Electronica podcast, Art Is Not a Thing. This archive provides a valuable snapshot of a community in dialogue, tracing the immediate inspirations and concerns that continue to shape our relationship with a world in flux.
