Coded Cultures is a conference and festival series developed by the Austrian artist collective 5uper.net[1] and since 2016 is included in the Research Institute for Arts and Technology. The first Coded Cultures focused on the theme 'Decoding Digital Culture' and took place over two weeks in May 2004 at the Museumsquartier in Vienna.[2] The 2009 version of the conference and festival was a bi-national event that took part in Austria and Japan as part of the official "Japan - Austria Friendship Year 2009".[3] Further implementations of the festival have discussed topics such as Open Source Hardware,[4] Right to repair, New media art and digital art in cooperation with the apertus AXIOM project and the University of Applied Arts Vienna,[5] the Transmediale Festival[6] and the ISEA (International Symposium on Electronic Art[7]).
