Arc 2 Research

About

Arc 2, derived from the second “arc”/sequence of a story, is a research project investigating the purpose and implication of fiction in today’s society. By analysing fictional media and how they are consumed, Arc 2 explores relative topics such as “the cause and effect of digital hoarding”; “Otakus and their global influence”; “border or reality in young gamers”; and “Role Play Game (RPG) as a new habitat”. These discussions will be carried out as exhibitions, performances, and talks.

The goal of Arc 2 is to bring cross-disciplinary researchers related to the above-proposed field to attention. With selected presentations, Arc 2 encourages viewers to rethink ways of interaction in art spaces through cross-subject studies. Curatorially in the future, Arc 2 will be a space to support young multidisciplinary artists’ practice through collective discussion on the current environment of the contemporary art scene, and their thoughts on the sustainability of digital/multi-media art.
