Faust goes KI
by Jürgen Schacherl, Bundesgymnasium Bludenz
🏆 Special Prizes · Prix Ars Electronica 2025
In 2025, the Prix Ars Electronica jury recognised “Faust goes KI” by Jürgen Schacherl and Bundesgymnasium Bludenz (Media Literacy Award) with one of the Special Prizes.
How can Goethe’s world-famous tragedy be told in a way that resonates with today’s youth – not by simplifying it, but by reinterpreting it? This was the question at the heart of the teaching project Faust goes AI at BG Bludenz, led by Jürgen Schacherl. The idea: Central scenes were to be realized as graphic novels.
