We are living in a world filled with indiscriminate noise. These noises intertwine and obscure the truth, obstructing our path to reach the fact. We aimed to examine the elements that cover our sight amidst this noise. Our efforts, combining humanities, arts, and technology, sought to uncover the origins of these noises. Our project delves into the roots of noise beyond our sight, using the mediums we have created. Sungkyunkwan University, built upon the values of integrity and foreknowledge, has been exploring the fusion of human, technology, and interdisciplinary research for over 600 years. We pursue education to create content and recognize the importance of collaborating with industries for content production and utilize the geographical advantage of the „Daehak-ro“ area, also known as the „Broadway of Korea,“ to establish the Department of Culture and Technology as a platform where students and creators can freely experiment and produce various forms of content.
