Unlike the value-oriented tendency of the older generation, the MZ generation, which is emerging as a new consumer, values individual happiness and satisfaction by recognizing consumption as a kind of play, and clearly reveals its playful characteristics compared to other generations. Therefore, this study identified users' needs for interaction elements that can give a playful stimulus to the music player UI, a key function of the music streaming app, one of the universal play activities of the MZ generation. Through previous studies, the concept and characteristics of microinteraction and gamification that can be used as play elements and the relationship between play and art as well as playful characteristics of the MZ generation were summarized. In addition, the current status was identified through case analysis of the existing music app's music player UI and user interviews were conducted through contextual inquiry methods. Afterwards, I was able to identify the positive need to apply playful elements to the music player UI through analysis of user behavior patterns, and based on this, I discovered the possibility of providing an immersive music listening experience through playful interaction.

Older adults in the hospice care experience difficulties in expressing their emotional and psychological issues, which has detrimental effect in their well-being. The purpose of this study is to examine how music can be used to facilitate self-expression both verbally and nonverbally in order to decrease negative influences of self-concealment. Four cases were referred from hospice personnel at the hospital, and received music therapy sessions for four month. The total number of session varied from 9 to 11 depending on the conditions of each case. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected from pre and post test of Self-Concealment Scale and Personal Descriptive Essays. The results indicated that the use of music, especially programed songs were effective in evoking emotional responses with various life-related issues and themes. The posttest indicated that the level of self-concealment has decreased, and also the Personal Descriptive Essays involved increased statements of emotional content after music therapy implementation. The study indicates that music can be used as an significant communicative and expressive medium when working with older adults in the hospice or palliative care, since they experience many difficulties to be engaged in the active expression. Music provide both passive and active experience through listening and participating, and programed music therapy intervention will increase the quality of life through expressive music activities.

Samul nori/Pungmul-gut is the symbol of ethnic identity for the Koreans abroad. It is the representative diaspora musical genre which is performed many cultural events held by Koreans. It is, at the same time, a global music which is appreciated by not only the Koreans but also the foreigners. Many musical communities in various countries exhibit the cultural migration through the discourse of 'tradition/variation' and 'authenticity/hybridity' in the course of the acculturation and enculturation of samul nori/pungmul-gut. The pungmul-pae 'Bichoe June' active in Toronto, Canada was organized by a foreign performer. For the foreigners pungmul-gut is easy to access as a genre of world music. As a percussion ensemble, it is easy to learn for the foreigners. The pungmul-pae 'Bichoe June' is a 'music community' consist of the Koreans and foreigners. The band tries to preserve the traditionality and authenticity of the Korean music. There is no variation or hybridity in its music since the member still learns the authentic music through various available textbooks and internet sites. Through the participation of the Koreans and foreigners, the band stimulates the globalzation of the pungmul-gut. The enculturation of the pungmul-gut is exhibited in two performances held by the band. One was host by the Canadian progressive group and the other was by the Korean conservative community. The former understood the nature of pungmul-gut as the music of the common people. The latter, however, accepted the music as the representative traditional music but was not easy to enjoy the 'noisy' music. In other words, the positive/negative acceptance of the pungmul-gut depends of the ideological nature of the listeners rather than the ethnical nature.

This study investigated the harmonic preference of children and adolescents depending on age and musical training. A total of 684 primary and secondary school students participated in this study. For this study, a four-measure melody was composed and constructed in four levels of harmonic complexity, determined by the rate of nonharmonic notes used and immediacy of harmonic resolution. Participants rated the degree of their perceived complexity and their preferences after listening to each musical stimulus. Ratings from the participants were analyzed in terms of the effect of age and the length of musical training. The results showed that younger students demonstrated little to no change in their preference regardless of the complexity level. Middle and high school students showed significantly decreased preference with increased harmonic complexity. High school students with more musical instrument training perceived changes in harmonic complexity more sensitively and showd higher level of optimal complexity. Younger students was affected by musical training relatively less than older students. This study presents the baseline data to be considered when determining the appropriate level of harmonic complexity for music appreciation of young population.

Until today, the uses of digital display system mostly included demonstration, observation, and exhibition of simple images. The strengths were that the images that changes in line with the music played could be reinterpreted as a different work. Also, it could stimulate the sensibility of the users. However, the range of the uses of the system is very limited and users could easily lose their interest. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a system that could continuously induce and motivate user interaction. Therefore, the RSS based digital folding screen system proposed by this paper has an objective of being used as an interactive media system which overcome the limitations of former eight-sided folding screen used for simple observation purposes. It also applied the main function of RSS in which the user could collect and read newly registered messages without visiting the blogs or corresponding websites. Therefore, it is capable of sending the information needed by the user. Generally, we can observe the contents for mere observation purposes and when necessary, it could also be utilized for advertisement or exhibition purposes. It could also be used as a information transfer system in public facilities.

ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) appears most in childhood and shows attention deficit, hyperactivity and impulsive activity. If these symptoms are left untreated, they consistently remain as difficulties throughout the childhood and in some cases they will last until adolescence and adulthood. Various researches on music therapy as well as psychological therapy and Korean classical music appreciation have currently been conducted. However, a variety of programs have introduced in the name of treatment but the improvement results through the application of programs and teaching methods, in reality, have hardly been a specific case. Thus, music educators as well as this researcher should make the efforts to form holistic characters and have interest in countless children with ADHD. Accordingly, this researcher, who has taught piano lessons, has performed a wide variety of convergence art teaching methods by applying methods of Dalcroze, Kodaly, and Orff to children with ADHD, misanthropy or lack of affection. As a result, symptoms have lessened and been treated for ADHD children with attention deficit. On the basis of this experience, there have appeared more educational effects by applying these to other children. This researcher is certain that this study will a foundation of music therapy education for children with each kind of syndrome.

개인용 미디어 단말로서 MP3 플레이어는 이제 음악 파일을 감상하기 위한 일상 생활에서 중요한 휴대 필수품이 되었으며 단순히 음악을 재생하는데 그치지 않고, 각종 정보들을 표시하기 위한 작은 화면이 부착되고 있으며 더 나아가 이미지 정보나 동영상을 표현할 수 있는 기능들이 추가 되고 있다. 이처럼 변화하는 멀티미디어 서비스에 발맞추어 MPEG 에서는 Multimedia Application Format (MAF) (ISO/IEC 23000) 라는 새로운 표준안을 제안하였다. MAF 표준안의 기본 방식은 산업 현장 및 사용자의 요구에 빠르게 부응하기 위해, 기존에 존재하는 표준안들을 결합시켜 새로운 멀티미디어 파일 포맷을 정립하였다. 그 첫 번째 결과물로서, 이미 널리 쓰이고 있는 MP3 파일 포맷에 새로운 기능을 추가하기 위한 Music Player MAF 포맷의 FDIS 가 제안되었다. Music Player MAF 는 MPEG-1 Audio Layer III(MP3) 와 MPEG-7 MDS 메타데이터 정보를 결합한 파일 포맷으로. 기존 ID3 태그에서 표현되는 정보 보다 훨씬 풍부한 메타데이터 정보와 더불어 선택적으로 하나의 JPEG 이미지를 포함한 형태로 이루어져 있다. 그러나, 현재의 파일 포맷은 시간이 고려되지 않은 하나의 JPEG 이미지만을 포함할 수 있기 때문에, 오늘날 사용자가 요구하는 다양한 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공하기에는 많은 한계점을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Music Player MAF FDIS 에 제안된 세가지 형태의 Music Player MAF 파일 포맷에 관해 기술 한다. 복수의 JPEG 이미지 및 텍스트를 저장하기 위하여 각각의 파일 포맷이 갖는 문제점을 언급하고 하나 이상의 JPEG 이미지와 자막 정보를 MP3 음악 정보와 동기화 시켜 추가 할 수 있는 기능을 추가를 제안한다. 또한 제안된 파일 포맷을 쉽게 생성할 수 있도록 기존의 XMT-O 스키마를 기반으로 MAF 를 위하여 새롭게 MAF XMT 스키마를 정의하고 정의된 스키마를 기반으로 구현된 Music Player MAF 의 저작툴과 제안된 확장 뮤직 플래이어 MAF 을 위한 재생툴을 구현한다.
