Ars Electronica Garden Seoul

Korea National University of Arts presents the Ars Electronica Garden Seoul Festival from September 9 to 13 – in Seoul and the online world. Korea National University of Arts was invited to the Ars Electronica Festival to present diverse ideas on natural and regional boundaries and digital networks related to the inherent physical limitations triggered by the COVID-19 Pandemics. In 2020, instead of rallying in Linz, Austria, for the Ars Electronica Festival, more than 120 participating organizations hold events under the theme of Garden in each region, while the Ars Electronica Festival organized a kind of digital travel agency that connected them online. Korea National University of Arts focuses on the regional characteristics of Seoul, Korea's representative city, through nature, society, and technical environment, as the overall “garden”. The approach raises the topic of what kind of garden we will take care of in the future of "Third Life," where reality and virtual overlap.
