The Research Institute for Arts and Technology (RIAT) is an independent Austrian research institute established in 2015 and located in Neubau, Vienna. The aim of the institute is to investigate how technology and art can relate and inform each other in areas that include: open hardware, publishing, epistemic culture, cryptocurrencies and the blockchain.[1] In 2017 RIAT was recognized by the European Commission and Ars Electronica for innovation at the interface of science, technology and art with a STARTS Prize Honorary Mention.[2]

History

The institute was formed in 2015 after artists Bernhard Cella and Matthias Tarasiewicz made a decision to depart the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Since 2012 Cella and Tarasiewicz had both been leading research projects supported by the Austrian Science Fund[3][4] at the Center of Art and Knowledge Transfer within the University of Applied Arts Vienna.[5][6][7] Alongside these projects that were relocated from the University of Applied Arts Vienna, the other Viennese art initiatives Coded Cultures[8], 5uper.net[9] and Artistic Bokeh[10] were also integrated into the institute.[11]
