Ars Electronica Festival Afterthoughts

Soo much to see, hear, exchange, discover…  at this year's Ars Electronica festival. What remains afterward?    The sheer size of the location was a much discussed topic among visitors. Impressive? Too much? Great? Not enough budget to properly use the whole space? Too much cardboard? Fantastic space to showcase some great works? Too much space to showcase sometime basic work? Great meeting place? Too large to meet people? A bit of everything depending on who you talk to or on anyone's p...
