What if humans and machines were no longer clearly divided? What if artificially engineered organs and limbs were to become integral parts of our biological bodies? These are the types of questions that this year’s Ars Electronica is contemplating in the current exhibition, on show now at the Drive. Volkswagen Group Forum. If you have not had a chance to visit the exhibition yet, now is the opportune moment: this Friday and Saturday (6.10.-7.10.2017), you can visit the renowned media arts festival and view works from international artists as part of a walk-through with curator Manuela Naveau. You will receive in-depth background information on concepts and issues and will have the possibility to ask your questions and be part of an inspiring discussion. This curator-led tour is a must-see, so clear your calendar and be sure to put your name down. You might just end up being the most thought-provoking conversation partner at your next party. After all, the future is fast approaching. (Text: Massimo Hartmann)
