As I have stated in an earlier post that I wrote about German Jazz Musician Peter Brötzmann Having Recently Passed Away (As Of The Time Of Writing This Post), I was never happy about Korean Electronic Artist Nam June Paik (who was known for ruining, molesting, and destroying Radio and Television Sets in order to fabricate his Electronic Artwork).

Also, as I have previously stated in that earlier post; I, personally; find it shameful that Nam June Paik would ruin, molest, and destroy Radio and Television Sets without caring a hang over the all of the time, money, and effort manufacturers such as General Electric, RCA, Westinghouse, Crosley, Motorola, Admiral, the Delco Electronics Division of General Motors, Philco while under the ownership of Ford Motor Company, Sony, National/Panasonic, and Sanyo had each invested in order to bring these Televisions into fruition, and manufacture these Radios and Televisions; just so that Mr. Paik can fabricate his Electronic Artwork.

Nam June Paik was born in July, 1932 in what was at the time during the Japanese occupation of Korea; the City of Keijo, and as of the present day; is the City of Seoul, South Korea. In 1950, during the advent of the Korean War; Paik and his family at first, had fled to Hong Kong, had then resettled in Japan; and received his Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Tokyo.

In 1964, Nam June Paik would resettle in the United States, specifically in New York City.

In 1977, Nam June Paik would marry a Japanese woman, Shigeko Kubota; herself an Avant-Garde Artist. Shigeko Kubota was born into an old, noble family of Buddhist Monks; and it is not known if Shigeko Kubota is related to Gonshiro Kubota, the founder of Tractor, Heavy Equipment, and Gasoline/Petrol and Diesel Engine manufacturer Kubota Corporation.

From 1979-1996, Nam June Paik would work at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf (English: Art Academy of Düsseldorf) as a Professor. It is not known if Nam June Paik had worked as a Music Professor, or as an Art Professor at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf.

Later, Nam June Paik; now emancipated and no longer under the aegis of his parents, had resettled in West Germany in 1957, later moved back to Japan in 1961; where Paik was involved with the Sony Corporation and its newly-developed technologies, such as the Porta-Pak Portable Movie Camera and the affixed Video Recorder.

It is such a shame that Nam June Paik, who has been involved with many of Sony’s Technologies, would be so eager to destroy and molest Radio and Television Sets in order to fabricate his Electronic Artwork.

A Radio Set, and a Television Set are both worth fussing over as a Human Being, or any other living organism, and not as a trivial, disposable item. The History, Present-Day Operations, and the Effective Radiated Power (ERP) of a Radio Station, and a Television Station are also worth fussing over as much as Radios and Televisions, themselves.

Nam June Paik would pass away in Miami, Florida in 2006; and his wife Shigeko Kubota would pass away in New York City in 2015.

Descendants of Nam June Paik and Shigeko Kubota include the Korean musical artist of the strange genres Hip-Hop and Korean “K-Pop” Music And Japanese “J-Pop” Music by the name of Kim Jin-Woo (Stage Name: Jinu), and Inventor and Television Personality Kenjiro “Ken” Paik-Kun-Hakuta.
