Foreword

The 6th Seoul New Media Festival is a new genre public arts festival by showing new media. It began with a topic of what to show in a new media that is one step ahead of technologist in existing media festivals. Various instruments ofnew media do not belong to someone special but to us. Whether it is used for commercial consumption or other means of capital accumulation, new media culture is an absolute must as long as it conveys means and styles of praising personality and taste of diverse views with various tools. Different from Academy inclinedcultural arts and elite esthetic culture, space travel to minor 200 new media workswill truly indulge you with exotic, valuable and misty excitement. This travel will unveil discourse, genre, and code that we ultimately need to grasp from new media technology. Let's try a game in naming your discourse, genre and code in our space. Our story made up of 200 media feelings will make us happier than available media including mobile phone, mp3, DPD, ipod, and internet would. We invite you to this play in our Seoul New Media Festival from November 17th until 25th. The festival has begun for you to discover your cool, young and awakening sensation. Enjoy your feast with mouth watering universal tast
