Alternate Paths

Korean Internet Tour Guide is an attempt to examine the history of Korean internet from the points of view of both users and producers as well as insiders and observers. Korean Internet Tour Guide is a collection of moments in which diverse social elements such as technological conditions, users, work style, and political and economic interests have contributed in shaping the country’s internet; these moments center around software interfaces that people used to access the internet and participate in its production.

Alternate Paths is a round table organized to initiate conversations on the past, present and future of the Korean internet, based on the personal and professional experiences of individuals invited by the artists. The documentation of the round table was published online after the event.
