OPENING

To kick off u19 CREATE YOUR WORLD, actor/entertainer Tom Pohl (AT) will moderate a presentation of the various Open Labs. More entertainment follows: the AkkuRace featuring do-it-yourself vehicles and drivers powered by two tiny batteries.
How fascinating the world of physics and astronomy is will be demonstrated by scientists at the Institute of High Energy Physics (AT) and the Austrian Academy of Sciences (AT) in Deep Space. In the spirit of u19 CREATE YOUR WORLD, the Gameboy Music Club (AT) will show that technology doesn’t always have to be used the way its inventors and producers intended—the musicians will play a concert on commercially available Gameboys.
Then things get funky—the Tesla Orchestra (US) puts on a far-out show in which high tension is transformed into sound and the sparks really fly. For the grand finale, Michael Mayr (AT) and Kid Soylent (AT) will do a live show featuring music and great visuals on and with the Ars Electronica Center’s media façade.
Anyone who would like to help make the opening a glowing success can craft his/her own Blinky—a glowing hat, blinking robot or a brilliantly colorful hairband—and wear it throughout the evening.

Am 31.8. geht es los, mit CREATE YOUR WORLD, dem Jugendfestival der Ars Electronica.
