5 Times Artist Nam June Paik Predicted the Future | Tate

[@f16madlion]

Paik, like many great artists was an observer of the present rather than predictor of the future

[@lacrimosa5213]

i love the aesthetic of his work

[@x3needxx]

He just predicted what was already inevitable, he showed the ability of technology and how far it can reach !

[@ssejnosnikrap]

my guy literally out here predicting the future

😐 *Most people look at a TV and see what it **_does_** . Paik looked and saw what it **_could do_** .*

[@kakuella]

This is an interesting way of introducing advanced vision of an artist. I almost thought it was a conspiracy theory video 😂

[@starcraftnewbie2003]

He's a genius.

Artiste incontournable,visionnaire et simplement génial

Smart dude 💙

[@brendaluv2017]

He knew all this

[@inforneer]

A genius!!

Wow awesome artwork

[@cl23762]

Thanks for the informative video. Just a correction, it's pronounced like BECK (usually spelt like Baek). Not pike, bike or pak (although Bak is also a last name usually spelt like Park). His name in Korean is 백남준 - if you do a search, you can find many native Korean pronounciations. Hope people will start saying his name properly in Western media...

[@Doshigongan]

백남준..

[@lurkingheretic]

I want to show this to my students in Korea. Why are there no subtitles in Korean? Automated translations tend to be full of errors.

[@sei4685]

Does anyone know where you can find all his essays or good clips of his video works?

[@louvdon]

He didn’t predict it. He discovered it

[@noemiandoks]

Isn't it spelled as Nam Jun Park?

[@videogal999]

nope :)

[@Kevin-tm1vh]

예쁘다

[@hwasilee]

고 백남준작가가 티비와 바이올린을 사정없이 부셔버리는 퍼포먼스를 보고 서구 물질문명에 대한 회의감으로 봐라 봤었는데.. 원래 작가의 의도는 잘 모르겠지만요..

[@liverpain3485]

I wish he could have been alive to see at least one tier 6 shitpost

[@anthtan]

He isn’t well known enough

[@marcogentile7292]

👏👏👏👏👏👏💕

[@capitalfbs]

Does anyone know the song in the intro

[@Celerywave]

It’s an original composition by Paik, for his short film in the 1969 WGBH program The Medium is the Medium, titled Electronic Opera #1

[@jon780249]

Please, more analysis less hagiography. The electronic superhighway was not the concept of the internet.

[@f16madlion]

Sorry but nothing here was predicted that was not already far in flight, interesting artist yes. Predictor of the future not so much
