In 1997, the Prix Ars Electronica jury recognised “Venetian Deer” by Die Veteranen (Interactive Art) with a Honorary Mention.
In the concept of the CD-ROM "Venetian Deer" (an anagram from "Die Veteranen"), the disc is no longer regarded as the real product, but rather the CD-ROM itself becomes the basis for multimedia (literally). Various media were used for the production, the most diverse media could be used for presentation.
