▶ Intro
From Me to Us, From Border to Convergence
Convergence begins with attitude, rather than technology. Only when we seek ways to collaborate while maintaining our uniqueness, can new possibilities open up. We, therefore, asked some people from Seoul National University (SNU) who have created new connections across the boundaries of academia, generations, universities, and society about the values of convergence.
On the first floor of the SNU Commons Central Library, which opened in March 2025, visitors will encounter approximately 20 media artworks by world-class maestros. These artworks that change and interact through technology transform a library of mere knowledge into an arena of convergence where academia, art, and technology intersect. SNU People vol. 80 introduces us to various works of art, in one of which, artificial intelligence (AI) interprets and displays various people walking in the city as the dreamscape of a butterfly*, and in another, a giant traveling around the SNU campus allows viewers to revisit familiar landscapes**.
