SUMMARY:Film Screening:Nam June Paik: The Moon is the Oldest TV followed by a Q&A with Chien-An Yuan
DESCRIPTION:The Nam Center for Korean Studies is delighted to sponsor this screening! Known as the \"Father of Video Art\,\" Nam June Paik was a visionary who predicted our hyper-connected world decades before the internet existed. His work blended deep philosophy with playful mischief\, famously using everything from magnets to ancient statues to redefine how we interact with screens. \n\nPaik’s journey is a powerful story of resilience. Despite facing years of financial and visa struggles in New York\, he stayed true to his avant-garde roots and was eventually welcomed back to Korea as a national hero. This film\, Nam June Paik: The Moon is the Oldest TV\, captures his electric life through rare archival footage and personal diaries\, featuring peers like John Cage and Joseph Beuys. \n\nJoin us for this inspiring look at a Korean-American icon\, followed by a Q&A with Chien-An Yuan\, an Ann Arbor-based interdisciplinary artist\, designer\, and educator\, Yuan is a founding member of the AAPI performance collaborative IS/LAND and runs the record label 1473. His diverse work in sound and visuals has been featured in The New Yorker and the Detroit Institute of Arts.\n\n*Accommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at outreachkorea@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.*
