Let's talk Culture & Technology on 31 May and 1 June 2023

On 31 May and 1 June, Creative Days Vienna once again brought together international creative professionals for a two-day lecture and networking programme. We invited leading curators, researchers, artists and cultural experts to explore how technology is shaping the future of cultural experiences and sparking new opportunities in the process.

The participants at Creative Days Vienna are breaking new ground in architecture, design, film, gaming, fashion, music and visual arts. Their work focuses on questions about the impact of current technological and social developments on the creative industries and the city. In a variety of talks, experiences and networking sessions we offer space for knowledge transfer, cooperation and open discussion.

A wide-ranging tour programme to Viennese cultural institutions, technology companies and creative studios as well as curated matchmaking sessions rounded out the two-day programme.

The two-day discourse and event kicked off with keynotes by Penny Rafferty and Tega Brain. Tega Brain is a digital artist and will talk about her research at the intersection of automated technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and agency/self-determination. Berlin-based author and theorist Penny Rafferty will present her work on decentralised value creation processes in the cultural sector.

This year's Creative Days Vienna also saw the launch of Content Vienna, the competition for digital design with special prizes on the theme of “Digital Literacy”.
