The curator, Charles Liu, articulated that in the
process where the Internet revolutionized the world into a
borderless society, a brand new thought process, under the
native and global framework, brings with it a new territory
for our consideration. From the Internet locale of
“non-place” to a “non-community” society, and a
“non-nation” country and even “non-culture”
civilization, it is that pervasive.
