Designers' Techno Night

Designers’Techno Party, hosted by the Oullim Management Committee and
administered by Technogate, will be held on the last day of the Congress, Friday the 27
October. It will start at 8:00 in the evening and continue until 5:00 in the morning of
the following day, the 28  October (Saturday) at the Culture Belt around HongIk
University. The Techno Party has invited about 1,000 guests, including the Congress
delegates, 50 invited speakers, people involved in Icograda, and Korean ravers. With "P.
L. U. R." (Peace, Love, Unity, Respect) as its basic theme, the techno party aims to
inform the ravers of the correct philosophy of techno-culture, which has been wrongly
introduced up to now, and to promote cultural understanding among designers from
around the world.
The event consists of three programs: a LIVE ACT, a DJ performance, and a fashion
fhow. The Live ACT, starting with the 'Gut' (Korean shamanic rite), will be staged
outdoor and continue until 11:30 p.m. at various venues such as SSamzie Art Space,
Artinus Bookstore, Olive Bakery, and Wood & Brick Pizza. 15 to 20 DJs will take turns
for one hour respectively at NBINB, Myongwolgwan, Club 101, and Hiranya from 9:00
p.m., on the 27 October until 3:00 a.m., on the 28 October. Designer One Ji-Hae’s
fashion show will be held at the street in front of HongIk University from 11:00 p.m.,
27 October through 00:30 a.m. the  next day. We hope Designers' Techno Party will
give the Congress participants an authentic opportunity for Oullim.
