Concept: Hands are symbol of human life. In mordern society is too tough to live in peace. I would like to know what is difficult things to human and how they overcome the corcerns.

Body: I would like to talk about the lines on our palms. In Korea, some people believe that lines on one’s palm show his/her destiny. And they say the lines were made for us when we were born, so we have no control of our life. However, others suggest that our destiny can be changed if we try hard and have a faith in ourselves.

Concept: New Media is convenience but old media also valuable because it has memory. When appear new media, many people throw away old media. We should preserve old media with specific memory. For example,

This is my calculator — old and new. I need a calculator because I work as a sports writer and I often work with statistics. Usually for work, I use Microsoft Excel to do all my calculations. But, for basic calculations, I like to use an actual calculator. I used to use my iPad calculator because it was fun to use. But I recently switched back to an old-school Casio calculator. So I guess I’ve devolved backward. On a practical level, I like using this old-school calculator because I’m faster with it. I grew up using these, and I like the tactile feeling of pushing each key. But on a more whimsical note, I think it’s cool how such a simple, $5 machine can calculate complex mathematical functions — and it’s powered by light! So I guess I just like keeping physical calculators around.

My old media and new media is paper and email. I used to write letters to my friends by paper and send to them by post office. However, I only use emails right now, because it is fast and convenient. I sometime miss the moments that I have to wait to get my letters from postman.

Two short ideas in response to visits to Brooklyn Historical Society, The New York City Reliquary and the Tenement Museum.

Concept

Lives of ordinary people and simple physical objects.

Ideas

First, there are many political events in Korea at modern time. It is difficult to preserve the persons concerned opinion but this data will be valuable for future generations to understand what is fact. For example, the fifth republic event, which was self-coup. If I make testimony of voice from the persons concerned in museum, it would be realistic data for future generations to give define whose opinion is correct.

Second, there are many Korean-style houses in center of seoul. Mayor of seoul is worried about the Korean-style houses between preserving and developing. Now, some people are using the houses as a restaurant, which is just repaired inner part. I think, Mayor of seoul should select some Korean-style houses to make museum, which will be valuable cultural properties for future generations and a good tourist route for foreigners.
