The interaction between a body and interactive media art work produces the meaning of the work, revitalizes our synesthetic mechanism and expands the spatial boundary in which we can actively move and play around. The PI, three lightweight inflated balls of 1,5M in diameter, play the role as mediators that draw out the energy generated synesthetically by people’s sharing experiences through their bodily movement. They generate sounds and illuminate from within, that respond to the physical stimulus applied to thier surface by audiences. While the illumination represents the visual transformation of people’s kinetic energy, the sound reaction is created by more intuitive and meaningful way .

The recorded voices with various musical tone and peech of people from various backgrounds, ages and sexes are generated according to the change of spped or acceleration of the ball and become harmonized when multiful interaction between audience and the balls occure. The PI represents the Project P’s coviction that digital media techonology should be used as a mediator between people by deriving the shared and embedied experience from people

The most significant character of network-able environment is 'real time' recognition. Right now. Right here. Individual nodes get together and become a massive cloud. As a collective intelligence, "nowThen. Crowded? " shows how the media art realm streams in the real world.

Creators get a new role in new media technology environments, especially in network system. They take messages from the individual and distribute to the world. In other words, creators construct a "structure for in/out" instead of only delivering a purport. Maybe, media aesthetic behind the internet age, could be a 'catchable moment' in big flowing data. From this perspective, "nowThen. Crowded? " would like to see what is happening in media arts. When? Right Now.

Two rooms of the Open Afternoon are already almost full. Here is the program as of today:

Don't forget that you could be presenting at the open afternoon too, and that we have the option to extend the number of rooms in case we have more propositions than available spots.

See current program and propose a presentation.

We have negotiated with Jeju hotels - and especially our official hotel, the Hyatt Regency Jeju - some rooms at a preferred price. These rooms are blocked for Lifters until Friday, which means that it will be harder for you to get a low price after that date.

So if you haven't booked your travel visit Club Jung-Tour. They are our partner travel agency and allow you to make your bookings at the preferred price in a few clicks, both for the plane and the hotel.

On the tickets from Geneva to Seoul front, the ride will now cost you 1040$ with Finnair, really not a bad price knowing I paid an average of 1'500$ for my last six trips to Korea.
