In 2008, the Ars Electronica Festival is scrutinizing the value of intellectual property and thereby facing one of the core issues of our modern knowledge-based society: that of freedom of information vs. copyright protection, big profit-making opportunities vs. the vision of an open knowledge-based society that seeks to build its new economy on the basis of creativity and innovation. And beyond that, we want to hammer out practical, workable rules to govern this new reality.
