We believe that art creates new value by breaking down and rebuilding ideas. When we mix different cultures and technologies, we make new meanings that can move people, inspire them, and offer them new experiences. Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), a beacon of academic excellence in Korea for over six centuries, has consistently embraced this philosophy. Throughout…

Useful Simulations proposes the hybridization between human and machine as a space to reflect on what we define as „human.“ The machine not only serves as a tool, but as a technological creature with increasingly human characteristics, while the human is increasingly a being devoid of humanity, a being that is inert.

Within Digital Jigsaws, falling into place, approaches to narratives, design, and interaction offer viewers moments of transformation through their own choices — harnessing technical considerations as well as humor (at times the absurd). Through logic and whimsy, their technical foundations marry technology and play to shape the outcome…
