ABSTRACT

This paper examined the influence of Korean society's attitude toward science and technology on the formation of the perspectives of Korean contemporary artists on the relationship between humans and non-humans. Chapter II shed light on the relationship between Korean society and science and technology from the 1960s to the 1990s. Chapter III analyzed the works of Nam Jun Paik, U-Ram Choe, and Jinah Roh, who were obsessed with science and technology, tackled the subject matter of robots. Through this, it could be identified that the robot by Paik was a matter in the course of the reincarnation in the context of an open circuit, born from the interest in cybernetics in Western culture. The concept of ‘Anima Machine’ created by Choe was based on the expectations for science and technology, which arose as part of economic prosperity and security policy in Korean society from the 1960s to 1980s. Roh's artificial intelligence robots were in the context of the problem of emotional exchange with machines that appeared in the chatting culture of PC in the 1990s.
