DECLARES

To Gisle Frøysland and Maite Cajaraville, Piksel Produksjoner, Strandgaten 207, 5004 Bergen, Norway (hereinafter referred to as PIKSEL), that our institution supports the work of PIKSEL as a pivotal organisation in the field of digital arts.

Ars Electronica brings forward a comprehensive approach in confronting techno-cultural phenomena and enjoys a worldwide reputation for excellence. It its four divisions as a major festival producer, museum operator and R&D lab, Ars Electronica has amassed tremendous knowhow at the nexus of the digital transformation, science and technology, society and the arts.

Since 1979 we celebrate once a year the Ars Electronica Festival. More than 1,000 artists, scientists, developers, designers, entrepreneurs and activists are coming to Linz, Austria, to address central questions of our future. For five days, everything revolves around groundbreaking ideas and grand visions, unusual prototypes and innovative collaborations, inspiring art and groundbreaking research, extraordinary performances and irritating interventions, touching sounds and rousing concerts.

We are convinced that PIKSEL is one of Europe’s leading partners in bridging arts, science and technology, leading to novel ways of innovation as well as societal and environmental change. The knowledge created here over the past decades nurtures an important dialogue on European level and supports not only artists but contributes also to digital literacy.

Yours faithfully,

For Ars Electronica Linz GmbH & Co KG
Veronika Liebl
Managing Director
