The question was the starting point of the @servus #AMRO “Shifting Ecosystems” Research Lab in 2019. Back then, with Christina Gruber and Antonio Zingaro we explored the environmental impact of the internet, its resource consumption, and the greenwashing strategies of Silicon Valley.

@servus

Vaping Networks was the symposium we realized in 2019 in cooperation with the #kunstuni #linz -> https://vaping-networks.radical-openness.org/

Now, five years later, we revisit the "Vaping Networks” to reflect on the current developments of IT's impact, considering the forced digitalization during pandemic, the blockchain & NFT book, and finally now the AI-hype and subsequent hyperscale datacenters.

Yesterday at the talk participated also Felix Lenz, who showed us snippets of his new work "Brute Force".

"Felix is a research-led artist and filmmaker based in Vienna.

His analytic investigations in geopolitical, ecological and technological matters translate in meticulous installations, films and strategies. By carefully untying the complexities of an increasingly uncertain world, his works unpick the way we look at things."
