Ars Electronica Festival Podcast
This year's Ars Electronica takes place from 4 to 8 September under the title 'HOPE - who will turn the tide'. With this motto, the festival for art, technology and society aims to highlight the main driving force for positive change: people whose activities give cause for optimism. For the Ö1-produced podcast series, Hannah Balber meets artists, researchers, developers, activists and entrepreneurs from all over the world who talk about their inspirations, successes, failures, working with new technologies and the irrepressible curiosity to discover new possibilities.
During the festival, exhibitions, concerts, performances, screenings, conferences and workshops will be organised at several locations in Linz. Once again, the main venue is POSTCITY, a former postal distribution centre destined for demolition. Come by and get inspired!

How can we safeguard the preservation of truth throughout this process? Moreover, how can businesses contribute to resolving global challenges, particularly in developing sustainable and socially just business models?
