Ars Electronica Festival Podcast 2023-2024
In 2023 and 2024, Ars Electronica and Ö1 produced a podcast to go along with the Ars Electronica Festival in Linz. It featured conversations with international festival guests—artists, researchers, developers, activists, and entrepreneurs—about their work, ideas, and encounters with new technologies.
The podcast has since evolved into a year-round format: Art Is Not a Thing, the Ars Electronica podcast exploring art, technology, and society beyond the festival context.

Who Owns the Truth? #6 (EN): Truth in Bytes
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In a data-driven world where the influence of big data and algorithms extends to various facets of our lives, urgent questions regarding the nature of truth and its portrayal through data arise. While they have the potential to reveal and analyze patterns, providing deep insights into complex systems, from individual behaviors to societal structures, these patterns do not always encompass 'the truth'. They are inherently shaped by the way data is collected, analyzed, and interpreted.
Against this backdrop, it is crucial to consider avenues for the democratization of information, ensuring that knowledge and information are widely disseminated and accessible in a digital world, rather than being concentrated solely in the hands of a few powerful actors.
