Dynamics of Pause: The Platform for Contemporary Flâneurs Part 2 Project 2020 Seol A Baek Korea National University of Arts | South Korea While Seoul has been organized for efficiency, public life in Seoul has been falling apart. The urban infrastructure has been created to connect from one purpose to the other for a shortcut, and the time and space during the process have become meaningless.The spaces of encounters and sympathies that have made humans as human and cities as cities have disappeared or exist in isolation for their own purposes. Sanctified public spaces do not lead to individual performance. We remind us of our lost public life in the realm of the road that is full of useless means of transportation.The proposal is a destinationless platform for modern flâneurs who wander at different speeds and directions. People walk and stop on eight different tracks and face others or urban spaces. The tracks meet the platform, which is extended from the Eungbong station and exchange positions of each other. The tracks and the platform become the field of unintentional friendship. In that field, the flâneurs stop walking, cross, and stay. The dynamics between people created through the useless act of walking make them rethink the meaning of public life. Seol A Baek Tutor(s) Tae Young Kim
