New Media Seoul

I saw some great pieces of media art in Seoul and they put the emphasis on 'art' rather than 'media'. media_city Seoul is the only major biennial I've heard of that is entirely dedicated to media art. It doesn't take place in a gallery or in one of those ueber-trendy disused industrial spaces outside the city. It is located in a very official, big, and bright art institution: the Seoul Museum of Art.

Read this blog and the follow-up blog and reflect on these questions: What is media art? Why is it different from conventional art?
