The fundamental notion of cultural contents is researched based on the notion of visual culture, and important factors of the fun are analyzed as a creative motive of visual culture contents. So this paper provides anaytical methodologies for the fun in visual culture contents, which are based on semiotic theories of Charles Morris, Roland Barthes and Roman Jakobson.

The importance of cultural contents industry is steadily growing owing to the Korean wave etc. and Buddhist cultural contents is a part of the cultural contents. However, the development of Buddhist cultural contents in many ways has left much to be desired. That is because, it is difficult for the public, who is not Buddhist scholar, to understand and take interest in conventional contents on Buddhist books themselves which are digitalized. Also, most contents researches are discussed on the necessity of contents development and just stay in these subjects, but it is insufficient to study a semantic analysis and visualizing contents on Buddhist books. So, in this paper, we analyse mandala's twinning rite in the Buddhist books and implement visual contents on the rite. The mandala is using toohadeokbul in a special way as the abhisinca rite. We analyse concept of the toohadeokbul and implement its visual contents which visualize ideological logic of Buddhism. The implemented contents are able to provide the public with Buddhist cultural experience of the yard. Additional, by trying to visualize descriptive expressions of Buddhist books, this paper could be a precedent for developing visual contents of unlimited data comprised in Buddhist books.

미디어의 발달은 인간의 문화 전반에 걸쳐 근본적인 혁신을 가져왔다. 인쇄술의 발달에서부터 오늘날의 컴퓨터에 이르기 까지 인간의 표현수단으로 여겨져 왔던 매체들이 오늘날이 이르러서는 인간의 사고와 가치관에 대한 새로운 해석을 야기 시키고, 창작의 도구로서가 아니라 창작 자체를 주도하는 능동적인 역할을 하게 되었다. 특히 시각문화에서의 매체의 기능과 시각문화와의 관계를 살펴보고자 한다.

We implemented a visual contents showing Avalokitesvara according to semantics on the 42 Hands. And, in the process, we are able to provide the public with easy accessibility on mudras of Sahasra-bhuja Avalokitesvara.

본 논문은 한 중 일 3개국에 널리 알려져 있는 고전문학<삼국지> 소재로 제작된 만화에 나타나는 캐릭터비교 연구이다. 캐릭터는 언어적 의미를 시각화해서 전달하는 감성적이고 효과적인 표현 전달 방법이다. 또한 만화 캐릭터는 시각적인 조형으로 만화속의 스토리를 이어나가는 핵심적인 요소이며, 고전 문학을 원형으로 하는 캐릭터는 문화원형의 속성을 지니며 그 원형이 지니고 있는 문화적 특징도 시각화하여 커뮤니케이션 대상에게 재미와 정보를 제공해준다. 고전문학<삼국지>를 원형으로 제작된 만화에 등장하는 캐릭터디자인에 대한 비교를 통해 알 수 있는바 3개국 캐릭터디자인특징은 3개국 문화 속에서 원인을 찾아 볼 수 있고, 자국 문화콘텐츠에서부터 출발해, 주변 국가 문화콘텐츠의 영향과 더불어, 시대적 트렌드에 알맞은 디자인접근 방식을 보여주고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, the characteristics and structural meaning of the Palyupsimryeon mandala, which represent the high spiritual world among Korean traditional cultural relics, are analyzed and visualized. Various studies on foreign mandalas are being introduced, but there is a lack of systematic analysis of the meaning of existing Korean mandalas. In this paper, we visualize the seeds of the Palyupsimryeon mandala in Korea by matching them with the image of the mandala, which is based on the shape of the mandala. Through this process, it shows that Korea's unique seed mandala has a form of mandala that combines the existing the Diamond World Mandala and the Matrix Mandala. Applications include Mandara's characterization, digital storytelling, and games.

The paper starts off with a notion that the most realistic problem in restoring cultural contents' archetype and developing contents industry based on it is the lack of understanding and production about key visual. Thus, with the premise that, in visualizing ancient fantasy as an original archetype subject material, one has to take into account design process for an actual content production, the paper aims for the suggestion of the necessity of key visual through visualization. For this, the paper made an artwork of archetype image based on literature and historical data with which to visualize fantasy elements of Goguryeo's ancient myth and tales that have high utilization value as various subject matters, such as animation and games.

In this paper, we implement a digital content that visualizes 33 Avalokitesvara-Bodhisattva according to the wishes of the public. The 33 Avalokitesvara-Bodhisattva is described in the Avalokitesvara-Bodhisattva tale that is found in the ancient literature "Memorabilia of the Three Kingdoms" as Tangible Cultural Heritage. Also, it is easily found in a wall painting of traditional Buddhist temples. The 33 Avalokitesvara-Bodhisattva is the saint of mercy that transforms into 33 various forms according to the wishes of the public. The Avalokitesvara-Bodhisattva tales deal with differences in the types of wishes of the public, and the tales have been speeded like wildfire among the people. So, in this paper, we classify them into 4 groups by the wishes (healing, security, academic achievement, disaster relief) of the public, and then analyze its symbolism and activity of the 33 Avalokitesvara-Bodhisattva. Also, we implement a 2D digital content that represents visually it according to the wishes of the public. Applications of the implemented visual content are as follows; development of character, game, and digital storytelling associated with traditional culture, education service for Buddhist doctrines, etc.
