About the Video
The modern cityscape enclosed within the flat computer screen is perceived with the zooming in and out activities with mouse scrolling movements. Using a drone camera as its tool, Flat mimics the movements of getting closer and drifting away that are captured in the virtual reality within online map system. Images recorded in various locations are divided by each coordinate’s frame, and perpendicularly ambulate between the parts and whole of scenery to draw a novel, sensuous media-landscape. 우수상 장석준, 평평한 도시 (2015) 평평한 컴퓨터 화면 안에 담긴 현대 사회의 풍경은 마우스의 줌인아웃 스크롤 운동으로 도시를 이해시키며 '평평한 도시'는 온라인 지도 속 멀어지고 가까워지는 가상의 움직임을 실제 공간에서 드론으로 재현합니다. 서로 다른 위치에서 촬영된 영상은 각 좌표의 프레임으로 나뉘어져 풍경의 파편과 전체를 수직으로 이동하며 새로운 감각의 미디어 풍경화를 그려냅니다.

About the Program
The VH AWARD supports emerging media artists who engage with the context of Asia through an online residency program and exhibitions of commissioned artworks across various global platforms. Initiated in 2016, the VH AWARD has been discovering and cultivating promising artists to share their artistic experiments and amplify their voices on diverse issues. The award encourages artists who push the boundaries of audiovisual artworks to reflect on how we understand ourselves and one another in relation to the past, present and future. To amplify and share their voices with broader communities, the artworks commissioned by the VH AWARD have been exhibited in partnership with various art institutions and platforms, including the Vision Hall of Hyundai Motor Group in Yongin, South Korea; the Ars Electronica Festival in Linz, Austria; the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nusantara in Jakarta, Indonesia; the National Arts Council in Singapore; the House of Electronic Arts in Basel, Switzerland; and the Elektra Virtual Museum.
