AUDIAS is based on the soundscape philosophy that “sound is a resource to be preserved,” and is engaged in recording and preserving local sounds, developing media art exhibitions and content using these sounds, and providing auditory solutions.
The exhibition “Resonance” features 13 designers, including professors from Kookmin University and master's and doctoral researchers from the Interaction Design Lab at the Graduate School of Techno-Design, and presents eight media art works. Visitors are expected to experience the “sounds” of Uljin's nature through sensory artworks.
Professor Namgung Ki-chan, founder of AUDIAS and a researcher at the Technod Design Research Institute of Kookmin University, stated: stated, “This exhibition is an artistic project that creates new sensory values through the sounds of the region.” He added, “Going forward, AUDIAS plans to develop auditory experience content utilizing the sounds of domestic and international regions, and apply this not only to art but also to various fields such as culture, tourism, and healthcare. This will contribute to strengthening regional identity and activating the auditory-based content industry as a sustainable business.”
