TeleAgriCulture Workshop (Day 1/2)
/dev/lol Hackerspace, Friday, June 5 at 02:00 PM GMT+2
Join us for a two-day workshop at /dev/lol, exploring environmental sensing in an agricultural context.
The workshop and open to all (no technical background required) and held in English.
Please sign up for free via email: [email protected]
Working with TeleAgriCulture sensor kits, participants will learn how to collect and interpret environmental data, experiment with simple networked systems, and co-create project ideas that respond to local conditions. No prior experience is required. The focus is on hands-on exploration, collaboration, and practical creativity.
This workshop is designed as an open, inclusive entry point into TeleAgriCulture systems and methodologies.
Participants will:
• Learn how the sensor kits work (soil, weather, environmental data)
• Explore data collection, transmission, and simple visualisation
• Test and audit the current toolkit, documentation, and infrastructure
• Co-create speculative and practical project ideas
• Prototype early-stage concepts collaboratively
The emphasis is not on polished outputs but on shared understanding, experimentation, and collective design.

FAZE, Annapura, Spiritual Law, Exception
KAPU, Wednesday, April 29 at 08:30 PM GMT+2
FAZE:
Faze is a hardcore punk band from Montreal, Canada.
https://fazefazefaze.bandcamp.com/album/big-upsetter
Annapura:
ANNAPURA a solid formula in Mexico City since 2013. They have arrived on the landscape with a fury, and eagerly continue to demonstrate their detonating riffs backed by an arsenal of drum attacking mayhem. Their agitated vocals cut through the pain with thoughtful lyrics in Spanish that stitch together the personal and the political. They share the sounds of isolation, disgust, and comradery.
https://annapura.bandcamp.com/album/v
Spiritual Law:
Punk mayhem from Bavaria/Austria
https://spirituallaw.bandcamp.com/
Exception:
HC Punk Linz

AMRO26 / Art Meets Radical Openness / Becoming Unreadable
afo - architekturforum oberösterreich, Wednesday, May 13 at 10:00 AM GMT+2
13. – 16. May 2026
Linz, AustriaAMRO26:
Becoming unreadableArt Meets Radical Openness
Festival dedicated to Art, Hacktivism and Open CultureArt Meets Radical Openness is a biennial community festival for art, hacktivism and open cultures. It provides a space for discussion and resistance against technological monoculture, and for sharing and learning together on contemporary issues of our networked times.
The current techno-political moment is dominated by AI and by the strengthening of the alliance between big tech and conservative politics, as well as a blind faith in endless computational growth. All of this relies on forms of “hyper-visibility”, based on the assumption that a constant online omnipresence is normal and desirable. Our interconnectedness forms the basis of mainstream digital cultures and serves as a tool for ubiquitous surveillance and the exploitative appropriation of works and data by big tech, which demands critical opposition.
For its 2026 edition, titled ‘Becoming Unreadable’, AMRO invites its community to reflect on and engage with invisibility, unreadability, ungovernability, and uncomputability as strategies for resistance.. AMRO26 aims at challenging the common understanding of AI, networks and computers, and through its programme, explores approaches that offer real change: low-tech, feminist and community IT, computing within limits, up to even more radical ideas around de-computing, de-networking, de-scaling and de-platforming ourselves. 'Becoming Unreadable' involves evading surveillance by oligarchic tech corporations, operate under the radar, and refuse to comply to the total AI cloud. Non-commercial community infrastructures are fundamental tools in this process, but even more importantly we need to develop new ways of understanding each others and being together as humans. Art Meets Radical Openness wants to be a space dedicated to that.

Exhibition Opening: "Hobby" with Stefan Brandmayr / Pia Mayrwöger
bb15 – space for contemporary art, Thursday, April 23 at 07:00 PM GMT+2
Hobby
Stefan Brandmayr / Pia Mayrwöger
23.04.2026 – 08.05.2026
Exhibition Opening: April 23rd, 7pm
Opening hours: 23. April 2026 – 08. May 2026
Wednesday – Friday, 3 – 6pm or individual appointmentsEin Hoch auf den Feierabend. Hobby machen, Hobby rauchen. Opportunities for social connection and skill development. Leidenschaft trifft Besessenheit. Wir holpern durch den Alltag, laut und erzeugend: Baggern im Hinterhof, Vogelhäuser bauen. Für Leute, die nicht mögen, was sie tun. Hobby riecht nach Kleber.
Stefan Brandmayrs Skulpturen bestehen aus Kombiniationen von Stahldraht, Presspan, Epoxidharz, Fiberglas und Styrodur. Sie sind bunt, verhandeln Geometrien und Volumen, zelebrieren das Wackelige und inszenieren sich als handwerkliche Laien. Spuren der Produktion werden immer umarmt, niemals verwischt.
https://www.stefanbrandmayr.net/Pia Mayrwöger lebte und arbeitete als freischaffende Künstlerin in Linz. In ihrer künstlerischen Praxis beschäftigte sie sich weitestgehend mit dem Themenfeld Arbeit. Mit Hilfe von einfachen Maschinen lotete Sie die Grenzen zwischen industrieller Produktion und dem Wert des künstlerischen Objekts aus. Ihre Arbeit wurde unter anderem mit dem Arbeiterkammer Kunstpreis (2021), dem Arbeitsstipendium des Bundesministeriums für Wissenschaft und Forschung und Bildung (2021/2022) sowie dem Linz AG Atelierstipendium der Kunstförderpreise der Stadt Linz (2022/2023) ausgezeichnet und werden im In- und Ausland gezeigt.

ELEKTRO GUZZI LIVE @ Katalogpräsentation Festival der Regionen, Realistische Träume
Kulturhaus GUGG, Braunau, Saturday, April 25 at 05:00 PM GMT+2
25. April 2026, Kulturhaus GUGG, Braunau
Das Festival der Regionen 2025 in Braunau a. I. ist vorbei. Realistische Träume und ihre Spuren sind geblieben. In den Straßen, auf den Stadtplätzen, an der Inn-Au, auf den Inn-Brücken und in den Leerständen. Vor allem aber leben Projekte und Begegnungen in den Köpfen der Menschen weiter, die das Festival ermöglicht, begleitet und besucht haben.
In den letzten Monaten haben wir das Festival der Regionen 2025 dokumentiert und reflektiert, Bilder und Texte zusammengetragen. Daraus ist ein Katalog entstanden, der zeigt, wie vielfältig dieses Festival war.
Wie wirken künstlerische Impulse in einer Region nach? Wie verändern Begegnungen und kollektive künstlerische Prozesse den öffentlichen Raum? Und wo finden sich die Spuren der Veränderung?
Der Katalog zum Festival der Regionen 2025 gibt Antworten – nicht als nostalgischer Rückblick, sondern als Bestandsaufnahme dessen, was „Realistische Träume“ in Bewegung setzen.
Auf über 200 Seiten dokumentiert der Katalog ein Festival, das über das Ereignis selbst hinausreicht: 34 künstlerische Projekte und über 200 Beteiligte haben Braunau und das Innviertel temporär in Bewegung gesetzt.
Programm:
17 Uhr Filmvorführung
* „Tanzdorf“ (Simon Mayer & Hannah Shakti Bühler)
19 Uhr Katalogpräsentation
* Talks Talks Talks
* Hühnerversteigerung von Arbeiten von Hanna Kirman (Projekt “Freiland”), Hosts: ART DISCOUNT 24
* Modenschau von Elke Kaiser
21:00 Uhr Konzert
* Elektro Guzzi LIVEKulinarische Versorgung: ZIMT – Zentrum für Interkulturalität, Miteinander und Teilhabe.
Highlight:
Elektro Guzzi präsentieren ihr 11. Studioalbum „Liquid Center“ live. Das Trio hat über ein Jahr an einer Aufnahmetechnik gefeilt, die ihre analoge Live-Energie direkt in einen dichten, präzisen Sound übersetzt. Das steht irgendwo zwischen physischer Präsenz im Raum und der kühlen Klarheit von Techno. Keine Show für den Hintergrund, sondern Musik, die einen reinzieht und die Beine in Bewegung setzt. Kurz: „A force to be reckoned with“ (Resident Advisor).Kommt vorbei, holt euch den Katalog und tanzt mit uns.
Freiwillige Spende. Tickets bitte vorab sichern: -
Digital Independecy Day
Willy*Fred, Sunday, May 3 at 02:00 PM GMT+2
Wo mochtest du anfangen? Von Whatsapp auf Signal, von Gmail zu einem ethischen Emailprovider wechseln? Linux installieren? Willst du erfahren, was das Fediverse ist und wie du mitmachen kannst? Suchst du alternative Software für bestimmte Bereiche?
Es wird zunehmend klar, dass die Abhangigkeit von US Big Tech nicht nur uns personlich schadet, sondern auch unserer Gesellschaft und Umwelt. Um diese Abhangigkeit zu verringern, begehen wir monatlich den Digital Independence Day:
https://di.day
Am Sonntag, 3. Mai 2026, sind wir ab 14:00 im Willy*Fred Gassenlokal, Graben 3 um den Wechsel von Big Tech in Richtung demokratiefreundlicher digitaler Alternativen gemeinsam, Schritt fur Schritt anzufangen. Kommt mit, bring Freund*innen mit, und wir gehen gemeinsam die ersten Schritte! -

13. – 16. May 2026
Linz, AustriaAMRO26:
Becoming unreadableArt Meets Radical Openness
Festival dedicated to Art, Hacktivism and Open CultureArt Meets Radical Openness is a biennial community festival for art, hacktivism and open cultures. It provides a space for discussion and resistance against technological monoculture, and for sharing and learning together on contemporary issues of our networked times.
The current techno-political moment is dominated by AI and by the strengthening of the alliance between big tech and conservative politics, as well as a blind faith in endless computational growth. All of this relies on forms of “hyper-visibility”, based on the assumption that a constant online omnipresence is normal and desirable. Our interconnectedness forms the basis of mainstream digital cultures and serves as a tool for ubiquitous surveillance and the exploitative appropriation of works and data by big tech, which demands critical opposition.
For its 2026 edition, titled ‘Becoming Unreadable’, AMRO invites its community to reflect on and engage with invisibility, unreadability, ungovernability, and uncomputability as strategies for resistance.. AMRO26 aims at challenging the common understanding of AI, networks and computers, and through its programme, explores approaches that offer real change: low-tech, feminist and community IT, computing within limits, up to even more radical ideas around de-computing, de-networking, de-scaling and de-platforming ourselves. 'Becoming Unreadable' involves evading surveillance by oligarchic tech corporations, operate under the radar, and refuse to comply to the total AI cloud. Non-commercial community infrastructures are fundamental tools in this process, but even more importantly we need to develop new ways of understanding each others and being together as humans. Art Meets Radical Openness wants to be a space dedicated to that.

ABOUT AMRO
AMRO, Art Meets Radical Openness, is a festival, a platform and a community 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 and Visual Communcation.“Art Meets Radical Openness” brings together local and international artists, activists, developers, researchers and hacktivists involved with the culture of sharing and communal production. They are catalysts that spark new discourses and open up new directions of thinking. Free Open Source Software, open tools in general and the use of free licenses are the precondition and basis for the digital practice of a community like this, which impels social transformation. This tangible transformation goes beyond a digital practice and also changes our real life.

Sourdough #6 Drafting Hope, Creating Counter-Narratives with migrazine and maiz / magazine presentation
Raumschiff, Friday, April 24 at 05:00 PM GMT+2
Sourdough #6 (magazine presentation)
Drafting Hope, Creating Counter-Narratives with migrazine and maizWhen: Friday, 24th April, 17:00–19:30
Where: Raumschiff, Pfarrplatz 18, 4020 LinzIn this gathering we present the last issue of the online-magazine migrazine "Drafting Hope, Creating Counter-Narratives” in which we took part in search for models of life, community and values that promote the emancipation from technology monopolies as well as our capacity for a political digital engagement. Intervening with counter-narratives, creating alternative uses and spaces for technologies, as well as building relationships that inspire empathy and generosity were some of the forms of (re)existence in a hyper-digitalized life that we gathered to tackle this issue.
Together with the authors Aimilia Liountou and Mary Maggic we will go through two of the published texts: respectively, the sociopolitical development of emojis in the global cultural sphere, and “Workshopology” as practice and research methodology for artists and interdisciplinary collaborations.
We invite activists, authors, artists, editors and general public to an evening full of playful, creative exchange on hegemonic digital infrastructure and possible ways to overcome them - acknowledging our contradictions at hand.
This event will be held in English.
About
Verein maiz: Autonomous Centre by and for migrant women founded in Linz in 1994. Our goal is to better the living and working situation of migrant women in Austria and to promote their political and cultural participation, as well as to transform the existing, unjust social conditions. https://maiz.at/demigrazine - Online Magazine by Migrant Women* for Everyone is a multilingual magazine and alternative media platform that deals with migration-related phenomena as well as socio-political issues. migrazine went online for the first time in 2009, published by maiz (Autonomous Centre by & for Migrant Women), born out of a desire to make critical migrant voices more audible in the media and to stand up against the clichéd portrayal of migrants. http://www.migrazine.at/
Verein maiz and migrazine will be represented by Lia Kastiyo-Spinósa and Rosi Grillmair.
Aimilia Liontou (she/her) is a multidisciplinary artist, interested in the use of technology and its impact on the near future. In her artistic practice, she uses speculative scenarios as a means of investigating current realities and potential futures. By blending real facts with fantasy, she create projects that aim to question specific situations and encourage viewers to think for themselves, rather than suggesting specific solutions. Since May 2023 she is part of servus.at team. https://www.aimilialiontou.com
Mary Maggic (1991, Los Angeles) is an artist and researcher based in Vienna since 2017 whose practice revolves around workshopology as a shared process of amateurism and care that can collectively move us beyond pollution, planetary wounds, and grief. These workshopologies center ecological crisis as the starting point for embodying our permeability and vulnerability, informed by what our collectives and lands already know and feel. With this participatory practice, Maggic constantly searches for new embodied strategies for dissolving the boundaries between the personal and the planetary, and entering into new modalities of collective world-making.

AI Cafe #3: Their Machines, their Rules? - Legality, Rights and Accountability in Algorithmic Society // with Kristina Tica, Raphael Albert & Joaquín Santuber
servus clubraum, Thursday, March 26 at 06:00 PM GMT+1
AI Cafe #3
Their Machines, their Rules? - Legality, Rights and Accountability in Algorithmic Society
with Kristina Tica, Raphael Albert & Joaquín SantuberThis third appointment in the series of the AI Cafés looks at algorithms, machine learning and AI and their impact on personal data, as well as the responsibility over automatic decision making processes. The participants will address AI Act and Digital Omnibus, current attempts of european institutions to regulate the industry around AI and yet leave enough room for economic activity. Raphael Albert will discuss how generative models interfere with our fundamental right to digital privacy and whether the current legal framework on data protection provides sufficient protection against such interference. Kristina Tica and Joaquín Santuber will provide insights into understanding the concept of Human Oversight, as introduced in Article 14 of the EU AI Act. The critique of this act focuses on the ambiguity and limitations of human decision-making and agency in overseeing, controlling, and intervening in high-risk AI systems, which can affect fundamental rights. Her approach comes from media arts, where along Joaquín Santuber, they developed an interactive artwork HUMAN OVERS[A]IGHT: THE OPS ROOM.
About
Kristina Tica is an interdisciplinary artist and researcher, with most recent practice centred on the artistic and theoretical exploration of the aesthetics and ethics of machine learning applications in visual computational processes. Currently pursuing her practical and theoretical PhD research at the intersection of critical AI, computational image and its aesth-ethics, media theory and law, between the Department of Media Theory at the University of Applied Arts (die Angewandte) Vienna and the Metaverse Lab [LIFT_C] at the Johannes Kepler University Linz. https://ticakristina.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ticakristinaRaphael Albert is a digital privacy professional, advocate, and activist based in Linz, Austria. Coming from a background in law and economics, he began working on privacy-related issues in 2018. Since then, he has worked in different settings and filled different roles. Of his many roles, he had always liked those the most which allowed him to share what he has learned about protecting our digital privacy with others. To focus on sharing knowledge and outreach, he started PRIVACY MINDED in 2023.
Joaquín Santuber is a lawyer and obtained his PhD in Design and IT-Systems from the Hasso-Plattner-Institute, Potsdam, Germany on the topic of designing for digital justice. As a research group lead of Metaverse Lab at the LIFT_C, JKU Linz, he works with art-based and design approaches to legality in digital environments, as well as critical approaches to public and judicial innovation.
*The AI Café is part of the cooperation “Critical digitization for art and culture / Theater Phoenix x servus.at”, which is realized within the project "KI im Theater Phönix" funded through the program "KI in der Kunst und Kultur". During the project, database-supported, automated, and algorithmic processes in theater operations are being explored. The project combines a critical examination of AI systems with their actual application in daily workflows. Part of the project, “AI Café” – a public event series in which different experiences and approaches to AI in cultural production are collected and discussed.

Lion’s HiFi was born 10 years ago out of a shared passion for music, culture and soundsystem among friends from the Murtal district in Styria, Austria.
With deep respect for the origins and roots of soundsystem culture, and a strong technical focus on crystal-clear sound paired with heavy, analogue-powered basslines, every session becomes a unique and uplifting experience.
For almost 20 years, Max aka Roaring Lion has been playing the music he wants people to hear — and that remains his mission to this day. He is one of the veterans of the Austrian dub soundsystem community and a big part of the annual dub festival Hills Of Eden (@hillsofeden_festival), hosted by our beloved friends Dread Lions (@dreadlionsmusic) in the north of Styria — Austria’s biggest soundsystem community gathering.
We are more than honoured to have Lion’s HiFi on board.
TaffRaff
Steel City’s dub veteran number one!
If you’ve joined a dance over the past decades, you definitely know him. A true connector, socializer and big selector, he once again delivers heavy dubs straight from his collection.
Feel the energy — it’s unique!
Subversion Sound
A Dub-Duo from Linz, which has been active since 2023. What began as a passion for collecting dub records and dancing at sessions has evolved into a project dedicated to spreading heavy dubplates from around the globe. From roots to progressive steppers, with a focus on heavy bass music from the entire dub universe! Subversion Sound is strictly anti-fascist. No compromise! ★

Live Coding 👾INHABITING CODE👾 by Toplap Linz
Stadtwerkstatt Linz, Wednesday, January 14 at 07:00 PM GMT+1
LIVE CODING CONCERT - 14th January 2026, STWST Linz
How can an interface like the computer be embodied? How expressive can that interface be? Which techniques and strategies can we use to inhabit uncertainty as a place of experimentation? After a two-day workshop of pondering these questions and learning live-coding tools, a group of old and new live-coders from TOPLAP Linz will present their collaborative experimental algorithmic audiovisual creations in Stadtwerkstatt on Wednesday January 14th at 19:00.
Thanks to servus, STWST and Kunstuniversität Linz for making this possible :)

exhibition opening: ganz nah
bb15 – space for contemporary art, Wednesday, January 21 at 07:00 PM GMT+1
ganz nah
Lisa Großkopf / Sarah Rinderer
21.01.2026 – 06.02.2026
Exhibition Opening: January 21st, 2026, 7pm
Performance: » – . ! : (voices: Mzamo Nondlwana, Aaron Josi Sternbauer, Crystal Wall; accordion: Jakob Steinkellner), 7:30pm
Opening hours: Wed – Fri, 3 – 6pmIn her work, Lisa Großkopf takes aim at the striving for perfection. She highlights a troubling worldview: one that ascribes responsibility for life’s happiness primarily to the individual, while largely ignoring essential variables such as structural inequalities and social disadvantages. Großkopf confronts the neoliberal ideal—where health, beauty, and contentment are viewed as things to be maximized solely through diligence and discipline—with the reality of hyper-capitalist societies.
At the intersection of literature and visual arts, Sarah Rinderer focuses on dealing with language itself, its pauses, gaps and in-between-spaces. By making seemingly silent punctuation marks audible together with voice performers or by sending a message into the past through semaphore gestures, she explores the conditions that make communication possible – across spatial and temporal distances, different sign systems, codes and beyond words.
Lisa Großkopf (b. 1989, Vienna) studied at the University of Applied Arts Vienna, the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, and the University of Arts Linz. Her extensive exhibition history includes presentations at Lentos, Belvedere 21, the Museum der Moderne Salzburg, and Kunsthaus Graz, as well as recent participation in the Ars Electronica Festival. Her work has taken her internationally to cities such as Budapest, Tehran, Düsseldorf, Bratislava, Amsterdam, Kassel, and Jacksonville, and has included solo exhibitions in Prague, Ljubljana, and Chongqing.
https://lisagrosskopf.net/Sarah Rinderer (b. 1994, Bregenz) studied Fine Arts/Experimental Art and Cultural Studies at the University of Arts Linz. She presents her concept-based works and texts in exhibitions, anthologies, and literary magazines, among others at Galerie 422 Gmunden, Bank Austria Kunstforum, the Mahler Forum for Music and Society in Klagenfurt and in flugschrift N°45 sektorenfeuer. Most recently, she received grants for studio residencies abroad, such as Barcelona, Athens, Reykjavík and Paris, as well as a start stipend for literature (BMWKMS, 2024).

AI Cafe #2: Franziska Thurner / Behind the Pixels – AI image generators and their bias
servus clubraum, Tuesday, December 16 at 06:00 PM GMT+1
AI Cafe #2:
When: 16th December at 18:00
Where: servus.at Clubraum. c/o Stadtwerkstatt, Kirchengasse 4, 4040 LinzFranziska Thurner researches how AI image generators work and to what extent they reinforce and reproduce social prejudices. AI training data consists of billions of internet posts and reflects existing social discrimination (sexism, racism, ableism, classism). During the AI Café, prompts are written and image generators are tried out – the results are analysed in a joint discussion with regard to gender, digital colonialism, resources and climate protection.
About the artist:
Franziska Thurner is a media artist and university lecturer at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and the University of Art and Design Linz. In the course of her many years of teaching, she has devoted herself to researching and testing emerging technologies with a focus on art, schools and educational work, as well as issues of digital ethics and digital justice. Her artistic work also focuses on numerous collaborations, including with sound artist Abby Lee Tee and their joint project ‘Beaver Lab’ and with Hanna Priemetzhofer as ‘System Jaquelinde’.About the AI Café:
The AI Café is part of the collaborative project ‘Critical Digitalisation for Art and Culture / Theater Phoenix x servus.at’ and is being realised as part of the AI in Theater Phoenix project through the AI in Art and Culture funding programme. This project explores database-supported, automated and algorithmic processes in theatre operations. The project combines a critical examination of AI systems with their actual application in daily workflows. The ‘AI Cafés’ serve as a public event series in which different experiences and approaches to AI in cultural production are collected and discussed. -
