This publication is the catalogue for the 2nd Mediacity Seoul International Media Art Biennale held from September to November 2002. The exhibition presents works by 35 domestic and 42 international artists who all explore the convergence of technology and contemporary art, and whose works exemplify some of the latest trends in art.

'“Lunar’s Flow” was the theme for the 2nd biennale, which explored the new sublime as a metaphor for the cyber sublime of the moon and all the utopian fantasies nurtured by the human mind imagined to exist there. Along with sub-themes like “Digital Sublime,” “Cyber Mind,” “Luna’s Children,” and “Luna Nova,” the exhibition framed media not as means of “conquest” but as a tool for restoring romantic feelings long forgotten by human beings. Through this thematic approach, the 2nd Seoul International Media Art Biennale introduced a new model for the biennale format.' - from the organiser's website

Includes curatorial essays and artist's pages that include both images and statements. A synopsis of the symposium held in conjunction with the exhibition is provided.
