The Ars Electronica festival in Linz, Austria, which takes place at the start of September every year is a number of things, a plethora of happenings spread out in various locations: the Brucknerhaus concert hall in a park beside the Danube, the ORF broadcasting station, an exhibition venue and the Ars Electronica Center itself.
Ars Electronica includes a Symposium focused on controversial intellectual issues, with associated exhibits and platforms for web activists; a prize-giving and exhibition of winners and runners-up in the different categories (net art, interactive art, computer animation, digital music and a section for school-age computer artists from Austria); and a number of indoor and outdoor performances.
Ars Electronica - operating in what the local mayor, at the opening ceremony, was at pains to call the "open and tolerant city of Linz" - is relatively free of such pressure at the moment, since only a small portion of its funding comes from central government.

Ars Electronica had just decided to give that movie its $10,000 special-effects prize, and we felt that an art festival had no business rewarding such a piece of mega-grossing shlock.
By the time we arrive in Austria, several articles have already been written about Ars Electronica's "cutting-edge" Titanic/Popotla, oppressor/oppressed pair of prizes (the cry of "public relations disaster" is raised), and RTMARK has further fouled the air by being banned from the festival's e-mail list and then raising a ruckus about it (quickly de-banned).

The fabulous thing about Ars Electronica is that as an annual festival and symposium, and now a permanent museum, it so strongly supports electronic artwork, experimentation and research.
The city of Linz augments the festival by holding events and exhibitions at diverse locations including the Design Center, the Offenes Kulturhaus, the Landesmuseums Francisco Carolinum and the Parkbad (indoor pool), where an interactive audio installation entitled "Liquid Cities" by Michel Redolfi of France acoustically linked swimmers with Internet participants.
