Warm Greetings from Korea. My name is Haena Chu, assistant curator at\u00a0<\/span>Art Center Nabi<\/a><\/span>, a media art center in Seoul.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I am writing to inquire about distributing our\u00a0<\/span>open call through your school’s newsletters or post boards since we believe it would be a great opportunity for your students to engage in a proactive scene of art, technology and society, leveraging their practices into imminent concerns of the contemporary society.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We are looking for submissions in the form of media art, design and text under the theme of\u00a0<\/span>envisioning a \u2018Planetary Mind\u2019 and various forms of \u2018we\u2019 in the age of I<\/b><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Art Center Nabi wishes to gather a community of people who could see the possibility of resonance among multiple minds, found across multiple cultures and philosophies that posit interconnectivity as human essence.\u00a0This open call is part of Art Center Nabi’s international research project called\u00a0East meets East<\/i><\/b>(EmE)<\/i><\/b><\/a>\u00a0which experiments with art and technology to reshape the discourse around \u2018East\u2019 and \u2018Asia\u2019 through rethinking and reconfiguring contemporary media aesthetics, history, philosophy and art in the light of diversity and inclusivity in different media ecologies.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We hope that this open call can be a potent emblem in responding to emergencies of a planetary-scale such as COVID-19, climate crisis, and ongoing warfare around the world. It also counters chronic issues in hyperconnected society, such as the isolation of individuals and the effacement of humanity’s capitalist technologies. You can find details in the attached file above.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Please let me know what you think of this proposition, and if there is any additional information I can provide.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We would be most delighted to converse with and support your school community through our open call program. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
