Curated by Yu Yeon Kim and Stephen Pusey, OMNIZONE sets out with an impossible premise - to map the Internet through the works of artists who engage its dynamic relationships.

Alison Craighead and Jon Thomson
Using the format of the early arcade game, Space Invaders, this work extends the artists' thesis on copyright. "In effect Trigger Happy becomes a folly. A self-defeating environment looking at the relationship between hypertext, authorship and the individual."
(see also their "Attributed Text" in OMNIZONE).

Lee Boot
An exploration of the plexus of networked existence. The artist presents a variety of models and conversations that investigate the formation and implications of the Internet., "I ... think of this website as the node, and the Internet itself as a huge morass of connections and real choices".

An ironic portrait of post-war Korean culture - its uneasy absorbtion of American iconography, its endemic tension of impending military conflict, and its embrace of the future., This work, contains five sections. Some script (containing political references) is in Korean - we will eventually provide an English key to their meaning
