Springsessions / Springfestival Graz 2013

Springsessions - Let's talk about future, innovation and creativity

Springfestival features a series of lectures, called Springsessions, which are held on 30th and 31st of May 2013, at the Auditorium of Joanneumsviertel. Springsessions runs in tandem with the festival itself, and in previous years has established itself as a prominent part of the overall experience in Graz.

Springsessions is all about challenging the boundaries, creating new channels of thought and finding something new where you least expect to. The focus is firmly on an environment where no idea is too big or small, and collaborative, creative thinking is encouraged. Speakers come from all over the world, taste-makers, visionaries and mould-breakers who are all experts and pioneers in their respective fields. Topics include Digital Art, Imagination, Inspiration, Design, Visual Culture, Experimental Technology, Interactive Experience, Computational Art, and more.

Everybody is welcome at Springsessions. No matter what your background or area of interest, it is all relevant in the exciting exploration of topics right at the heart of contemporary culture. Whether you have your own business venture, a brilliant idea or a fresh perspective on current trends, Springsessions is a must-do element of Springfestival.
