Nam June Paik is famous for scattering televisions everywhere and using magnets to alter or distort their images. In the picture above it shows many televisions and magnets around the television creating the map of the United States. The televisions are turned on and the magnets show different colors. The shapes of the states are so well recognized. The television channels are all paired up. The seem paired up according to the state their at. It shows that Paik really loves to outstand with his creations. He likes using different magnets and uses them to create different shapes.
To create this kind of art you really need to have an imagination. The use of televisions to create art is not very common and is not very recognized. That is what makes Paik creations so original. If you see this image from far away you just see the United States map but when you look closer you could see everythin else behind.
