Two immersive installations by jiawen uffline and by Maja Bojanić and Brin Žvan from Ljudmila Art and Science Laboratory blur nature's irrational forces with institutional critique and artivism. Both works invite visitors to participate in order to activate them. The exhibition explores ideas of communication and sustainability and creates a parallel realm where visitors gain agency.
Eleven international artistic positions address the ecological and social impacts of an extractive, profit-driven model of digitalisation, and illuminate the close entanglement of the climate and technology crises. Burnout not only settles in the individual body as a state of exhaustion, but it also accumulates, circulates and disperses into a shared climate that stretches across technical systems, social relations and ecological processes. What happens at the margins of exhaustion, where systems falter or refuse to fully cohere? Could spaces emerge for tentative forms of connection, alternative rhythms and practices that do not reproduce the extractive logic of burnout?
For its 2026 edition, AMRO presents Becoming Unreadable at Splace, a showcase in which participating artists engage with strategies of invisibility, unreadability, and digital self-determination as critical responses to the hyper-visibility enforced by AI systems and the growing alliance between big tech and conservative politics.

As the biohacker collective Quimera Rosa suggests, witches were “the most high-tech of their time”, already cyborgs embodying situated, corporeal knowledge and the ability to manipulate signs and matter.
We are living in the times of rising fascism; techno-fascists’ monopolist platforms take over public services and infrastructures; around the world, we are facing state capitalism + surveillance wi
In the continuity of our other propositions (talk and performance), our contribution to AMRO26 is to introduce participants to the text mode practices, their specific characteristics as an artistic
868labs invites participants into an exploration of mesh and wearable technologies that imagine communication beyond centralised infrastructures.
The destructive nature of hyperscale data centres tends to hide behind lofty metaphors like the weightless ‘Cloud’ and unfulfillable promises about economic prosperity and social transformation.
Join us for an informal pre-dinner walk and site-reading through Linz’s industrial edge, moving from the AFO toward KlimaOase.
The workshop proposes a playful guide to the materials, connected to different types of infrastructures.
Digital data is abstract, fleeting, ephemeral - but we want to remember. In a reconciliation attempt, we will turn old storage devices and network tech into amulets and jewellery.

During the activation, visitors encounter a masked performer sitting among the plinths. Donning a ceremonial eyeless mask resembling the organs and wearing a biosensor on its heart, the creature seeks the visitors’ touch. As their hands meet, the organs transmit live sounds from the creature’s body into the visitor’s. As subtle hand contact unfolds a micro-choreography of closeness, their bodies merge in a poetic suspension.
An evening dinner and convivial gathering exploring what it means to live and eat well, within limits. We propose a shared meal structured as an archipelago of tables, small islands of food, knowledge, and know-how.
