Isi artikel

This article is a critical reflection on the author’s perambulatory experiences in Seoul as he follows the curves and strokes of contemporary Seoul’s streets. In theories of mobile communication technologies, there are few discussions about how and why people move and what happens during those movements. As the author manages his presence in the metropolitan environment of Seoul, he focuses on the new connections of social space and mobile communication technologies such as mobile phones, laptops, digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) receivers, and GPS (global positioning system) navigation. By concentrating on corporeal and incorporeal motions via walking, driving, and riding public transportation, the author discusses how the usage of new mobile communication technologies reshapes urban movement and private and public, inside and outside, near and far, and here and there conceptions of social space.
