The Nibelungenbrücke is not just a plattform for traffic, but a plattform for knowledge and talent. Thanks to all who have made the Marktplatz der Talente a huge success!

Sunday? Conferenceday!

The Klangwolke was spectacular, the Danube turned into a stadium, impressive, impressive.

Today’s conferences are going to be softer, but no less inspiring. Public Square Squared tries to answer the questions about how internettechnologies have influence on revolutions, on democracy, on freedom. Starting 10.30 am in the Brucknerhaus, if you can’t make it, use #square2 as hashtag and join the discussion through Twitter.

Pixelspaces are syncing science and arts. Also they are looking for OHMI, the one handed musical instrument. Starting 10 am in the Sky Loft AEC.

The Architekturforum Oberösterreich is host to the second day of Sensing Place – Placing Sense, featuring Sam Auinger. Starting 10 am.

And last, not least, there’s Scenes & Structures at the Seminarraum at AEC. The schedule has changed, the conference starts earlier, namely at 1.30 pm.

Join the conferences, or check out the exhibitions, there’s plenty to do on this sunny day.

Kick off the weekend!

Day 3 of Ars Electronica 2011 is over, Sam Auinger bridged day and night in an impressive manner at Neuer Dom, fantastic experience!
