DATENPROTOKOLL

DATENPROTOKOLL

Jang Jin-seung talks about the relationship between technology and humans in a modern society where reality and virtuality are intricately intertwined. The artist proposes the possibility of coexistence by seeking the point of contact between reality and virtuality through a technological approach, and is interested in human perception acquiring new senses in virtual space and time. This work, which utilizes the 'Data Conversion Protocol (DATENPROTOKOLL)' system he developed, becomes an artistic method that philosophically examines human perception in the digital age.

The artist proposes that we think together about the reality of human perception at the present time by presenting the subject performing the performance from the audience to the screen.

"Technology assumes that it has gone through a period of rapid development and is in a kind of stagnation period, and transfers fragmented problems from the future to the present. The relationship through the simple interaction of the human physical body and the mechanical device sensor provides a certain degree of convenience, but it cannot lead to the development of ideal technology beyond that!"
