“Open_Sailing” by Martin Gautron, Nasser Moustakim, Nadine Freischland, Adrien Lecuru and 12 others received a Grant in the The Next Idea category of the Prix Ars Electronica 2009.

“Open_Sailing” aims to design an attractive technological lifestyle to overcome any possible natural or man-made disaster, stimulating people’s ingenuity and sense of solidarity. Whether it is from overpopulation, global warming or energy conflicts, we are living in a time where “apocalypse” beckons.
