When Cybernetics meets Aesthetics
When Cybernetics Meet Aesthetics is the title of a conference that will bring the revaluation of cybernetics to bear as a potentially decisive contribution to the dialog focused on the necessary redefinition of the status of media art. Can the ever-more-blatant contrasts between the “two cultures” attain convergence in artistic work with media? Can the modern-day “art of complexity” of simulating social networks, natural systems of rules, and the dynamics of feedback effects at work in the economy be understood as cybernetic processes? Which current prospects are opened up by reviewing the theory and practice of the cybernetic art of the 1950s and ‘60s?
10.30 - 13.00 Claus Pias (DE/AT) Stefan Rieger (DE) Cornelius Borck (DE/CA) 14.30- 18.00 Barbara Büscher (DE) Margit Rosen (DE) Edward A. Shanken (US) Jasia Reichardt (UK)
Moderation: Dieter Daniels (AT/DE)
Organizer: Ludwig Boltzmann Institute Media.Art.Research. in cooperation with the University of Vienna’s Department of Philosophy Concept: Prof. Dieter Daniels in cooperation with Prof. Claus Pias (University of Vienna)

Featured Artists - Opening
The Nature series consists of a series of seven “motion paintings”, representing abstract forms evocative of those found in nature. Between three to six minutes in length, each motion painting is made up of several short sequences depicting intensely colored abstract shapes and patterns that constantly move, expand and evolve. Culling his metaphors from nature – trees, sky, grass, moon, fire, wind, rain, snow – John Maeda offers us a glimpse of digital space in the spirit of landscape painting.

Hauptplatz
16:30 to 17:30
Hauptplatz/Mobile City - Opening
Cell phones and the future of mobile telecommunications will be the talk of the town on and around Linz’s Main Square during the 2006 Ars Electronica Festival. How Nokia & Co. have altered our society’s communications structures will be illustrated by diverse projects in provocative and humorous fashion. From the portable telephone booth to the treasure hunt via cell phone—the entire Linz inner city will provide settings for interactive projects in public spaces. The less pleasant aspects of technology’s dominance of everyday life won’t get short shrift either.

Take me down to the Simple City
Grand Cafe zum Rothen Krebsen & the Institute for Expanded Art in cooperation with the Media Lab Helsinki www.roterkrebs.net, simplecity@gmx.at
In conjunction with the 2006 Ars Electronica’s Campus exhibition, the “Grand Cafe zum Rothen Krebsen,” the Institute for Expanded Art’s event space, will provide an ideal setting for sound- and performance-based Concerts and installations. In addition to projects from Media Lab Helsinki, the Institute for Expanded Art will also showcase regional artists active at the interface of performance and music, as well as works that have emerged from the Arduino Project. Rounding things out will be an all-evening Finnish-Austrian DJ set, simulations of the northern lights, and live acts.

Hafen Linz
20:30 to 01:00
Harbor Resonance
Increasing complexity evokes a yearning on the part of many people for a simpler life, one that is more down-to-earth and rooted to one’s native soil. People long for simplicity in the traditional sense, and the opening event reflects this longing. Linz's industrial harbor and an old-fashioned paddle steamer form a mutually complementary, ready-made backdrop for the climax of the first day's activities and the big kick-off of the Festival week. Performances, interventions, music and visualizations ring in the Ars Electronica Festival.
