-----------------------------

Art & Technology Zone is an exhibition area where one can investigate 
the dialogue between technology and art. It presents an overview of 
artistic expression within information society and its context while 
also surveying changes of artistic style, era and social order. We 
want people to experience selected artworks, by representative media 
artists with themes and keywords such as interactivity, devices, 
webs, and images. A chronological table of the socio-cultural 
movements of media art and its context since 1990 is available for 
further study. For a multi-faceted understanding, ICC provides access 
to a sound-absorbing anechoic room where one can experience silence; 
a playroom lounge for younger generations; a display of research & 
development by corporations, public institutions and universities; 
and also presents emerging artists while providing them an exhibiting 
space.



*emergencies! 001 "KODAMA - mischievous echoes" will be held till 
September 9(sat.) 

"emergencies!" is a space that exhibits new work and projects by 
emerging and prospective artists. Experimental expressions, which 
lead to new possibilities for art and science, are presented three to 
four times per year. ICC aims to provide viewers with the experience 
of current media art in real time and the opportunity to encounter 
the source of each artist's ideas.

* "emergencies" is connotative of emergence, emergency, urgency, and agency.
