Dear All,

2012 Art Happening was held in Seoul, Korea on May 26. Art Happening is a brand for a series of art events that Creative Commons Korea organizes yearly. The name Art Happening comes from its characteristic of loving coincidences. Unexpected results come out when people share their works and they become sources for others to create something else.

This year, Art Happening was organized as a format of concert. We collected stories and photographs of families and the participant composers turned them into music. It is another way of collaboration. The process was fun, and the result was great as well.

Modern classical music artists do not get to be heard by public too often, but Art Happening became a wonderful opportunity for both public and musicians to come together and have a great time. The concert and music was perfect surprising gifts for the selected families. The music created through this event are all being distributed under Creative Commons License.  

If we have this kind of event together among affiliates, it will be more fruitful. Compared with pop musics, we have not paid much attention to modern classical musics, but there seems to be more room for participation from both artists and public.
