The project Touching Thoughts was presented at the Art x Science School for Transformation opening event on 17 October 2024 at the Open Innovation Centre.
Touching Thoughts is an artistic-scientific project that was presented during the last Ars Electronica Festival 2024. The project is the result of a collaboration between servus.at and the JKU's Medical Faculty, which aims at exploring protocols and modes of three-dimensional imaging in the field of digital pathology and bring together researchers, scientists and media artists.
Since mid-2023, we at servus have been following a process of evaluation and restructuring called reARDC (rethinking the Artist Run Data Center), the first iteration of which will be released in the fall of 2024.
The process started with the need to update the software that runs our main websites core.servus.at and radical-openness.org, which unsurprisingly opened a pandora's box of questions like "does it still make sense to host our own infrastructure?", "where is the community?" & "why are we still using Drupal?"
AMRO, Art Meets Radical Openness, is a biennial festival for art, hacktivism and open cultures, organized since 2008 by servus.at in cooperation with the Linz University of Art, Department of Time-Based Media.
The next edition will take place in Linz, AT, from 8th-11th May 2024.
