It revolution and new realities in Korea

syncretic aspects of Korean digilog-culture

Jung A. Huh

pp. 148-151

Abstract

Jean Baudrillard begins "Simulacres et Simulation" with a fable by Borges, where mapmakers created a real-size map so detailed that it was as large in size as a great empire. The actual map grew and decayed as the empire itself conquered or lost territory. When the empire crumbled, all that was left of the map was a tiny piece of paper. Today, a new reality resulting from the digital technology foretells "The End of Geography" (Paul Virilio). Geographical land is yielding to cyber nomadic space on a new dimension. Maps of the world are being replaced with internet-based maps in which all things are interconnected. Digital technology network alters individual concepts, reorganises societies and creates a syncretic reality.
