In Kepler’s Gardens is the title of the 41st edition of the Ars Electronica Festival (Linz), an initiative that has also been modified by the restrictions resulting from the pandemic.

“The coronavirus crisis makes it impossible to host 100,000 visitors from all over the world in one festival mile,” says Gerfried Stocker, Artistic Director of Ars Electronica, who is used to crowds of more than 100,000 people over the four days of the event. “For us as festival organisers, this can only mean working with a broad audience to find new ways to address questions about our future, especially now, in the midst of this crisis. That’s why this autumn, for the first time, we will invite people to an Ars Electronica not only in Linz, but in 120 other locations around the world and in parallel on the web”.

It is in this context that LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial participates with several online activities that can be followed through the web platform that the festival has created for the occasion.
