The pioneers of artistic artificial swarms look to the future: the Ars Electronica Futurelab’s new swarms+art website.

What started with the invention of Spaxels and with it the whole field of drone art by the Ars Electronica Futurelab over a decade ago, has since blossomed into the field of swarms+art – inspiring countless artists and spectators all over the world. The pioneering work and many achievements of the Futurelab in this area are presented on the new swarms+art website that is also a gateway into the future, since the lab team continues to work with artists as well as industry and educational partners: Aiming to expand our knowledge on machine cooperation and autonomy as well as to find new ways of human-machine creative expression.

The swarms+art website explains the lab’s vision and services, from creating art with robotic collectives to adapting the core ideas for new partners – investigating future scenarios of interaction between humans and artificial swarms from industrial to playful and educational scenarios. On the website, you also gain insight into the swarms+art research, from the groundbreaking swarmOS operating system for swarms of drones, ground bots and other autonomous vehicles to human-swarm interaction, showcasing projects, videos and patents.
