Opening. Creative Days Vienna 2025

Creative Days Vienna 2025 opened at The Hoxton with a relaxed evening hosted by Severin Matusek, setting the tone for talks on where art, tech, and culture meet.

Sean Bidder, curator at 180 Studios and creative director at The Vinyl Factory, opened the night with reflections on how contemporary art, music, and immersive experiences are evolving and blending. His keynote felt like an invitation to think differently.

Next up was Claire L. Evans — writer, musician, and cultural theorist — who brought a unique perspective on the links between biology, digital life, and the way technology shapes our understanding of the world. Her talk wove together ideas that were both futuristic and deeply human. The evening wrapped up on the rooftop with drinks, good conversations, and new connections.
