BIO·FICTION

Where science meets art, design and film.

The BIO·FICTION Science Art Film Festival is one of a kind: It’s a creative and boundary-crossing event with a program filled to the brim with content exploring cutting-edge emerging sciences – in the present, but also in possible futures.

The most recent edition took place on September 23 & 24, 2019 in Vienna with a focus on neurotechnologies. Have a look at the rich festival program featuring our short film competition, cross-disciplinary discussions, a brain-computer interface demo, a Leonardo LASER Talk and much more…

You can also browse through the first two BIO·FICTION editions that took place in 2011 and 2014 and focused on synthetic biology
