Ars Electronica 2009
The very best of Ars Electronica 1979 - actual
Ars Foyer
As the successor to open x and electrolobby, Ars Foyer is the latest response to the need to provide within the Ars Electronica Festival format an informal setting for production, presentation and discussion. The name says it all: the lobby of the Brucknerhaus as open forum in which people from all sectors and walks of life are welcome to intermingle and interface. Primary emphasis is on the presentation of artistic projects by the artists themselves. Ars Foyer thus offers the opportunity to shed light on background aspects of festival projects as well as to make attendees aware of material not directly connected with the festival proceedings such as publications on media art and media culture in general.This format constitutes Ars Electronica’s take on a development in the book market: the heightened interest among publishers and readers in how artistic and scientific fields are reflected in digital culture and the cultural discourse taking place within the new media landscape. What remains unchanged is the format’s function as a showcase. This year, the spotlight will be on the OF lab project and the results from the wide array of applications of openFrameworks, software developed by artists themselves.The exhibit documenting the Prix Ars Electronica’s Digital Communities category will also be on display in the Ars Foyer.
