In the time of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, we endlessly cross between the virtual and the real in our daily routine. Information saving method has changed from physical to virtual and the contents of a digital device can be a method of showing one's identity. A digital device can be seen as a virtual version of a 'wuderkammer'. With this perspective, this study focuses on the changes that has occurred in our daily interaction, the process of thinking, perceiving, and understanding in the time of 'digital wunderkammer'. In order to discuss this matter, this study looks at the two art work series - 'Universal Addressability of Dumb Things' and 'UniAddDumThs' - by a British artist, Mark Leckey and analyzes the digital environment of today, its visual expression, and the characteristic of 'digital wunderkammer' reflected in his art works. Through this study, we hope that the readers can understand the paradigm shift of today and expand the creative possibilities in this new era of digital revolution.

The universe of discourse presented in the visual image is bound up with the experience and culture of parties; its sender and recipient. Signification of visual message is revealed through the mutual independent process. The mechanism where production of signifiant by sender and reception of metaphoric signifiant function unconsciously can be applied to Lacan's theory;"The unconscious is structured like a language". By applying Lacan's metaphoric formula which takes linguistic approach to visual image it is suggested that analysis of signification is possible. This analysis can be a base for seeking varied level of signifiant presented in visual metaphor logically and practically. Metaphoric structure of the signifiant and the matrix analysis can develop a creative idea and propose a practical way for the visual image production. Thus empirical study about nastic response and the future analysis result is expected to be possible.

In this study, we developed a model for analyzing scientists' creative thinking processes, and analyzed Archimedes' thinking process in solving the golden crown problem. As results show, scientists' complex problem solving processes could be represented as a repeating circular model, and the fusion of processes of diverse thinking required for scientists' creativity could be analyzed from the case. Also in this study, we represented the role of experiments in scientists' creative discovery, and investigated the reasons for the difference between the viewpoints of textbooks and historic facts. We found the importance of abductive reasoning and advance knowledge in creative thinking. Archimedes solved the golden crown problem creatively by crossing the scientific thought of dynamics and the daily thought of baths. In this process, abductive reasoning and advance knowledge played an important role. Besides Archimedes' case, if we would reconstruct the creative discovery processes of diverse scientists' in textbooks, students could raise their creative thinking ability by experiencing these processes as educational steps.

Webtoon has developed the method that makes it possible to express sound visually. Also we can also hear sound in webtoon through the development of web technology. It is natural that we analyze the sound that we can hear, but we can also analyze the sound that we can not hear. This study is based on 'dual code' in cognitive psychology. Cartoonists can make visual expression on the basis of auditive impression and memory, and readers can recall the sound through the process of memory and memory-retrieval. This study analyzes both audible sound and inaudable sound. Concise analysis owes the method to film sound theory. Three main factor, Volume, pitch, and tone are recognized by frequency in acoustics. On the other hand they are expressed by the thickness and site of line and image of sound source. The visual expression of in screen sound and off screen sound is related to the frame of comics. Generally the outside of frame means off sound, but some off sound is in the frame. In addition, horror comics use much sound for the effect of genre like horror film. When analyzing comics sound using this kinds of the method film sound analysis, we can find that webtoon has developed creative expression method comparing with simple ones of early comics. Especially arranging frames and expressing sound following and vertical moving are new ones in webtoon. Also types and arrangement of frame has been varied. BGM is the first in using audible sound and recently BGM composed mixing sound effect is being used. In addition, the program which makes it possible for readers to hear sound according to scroll moving. Especially horror genre raise the genre effects using this technology. Various methods of visualizing sound are being created, and the change shows that webtoon could be the model of convergence in contents.

As the film industry develops in China, movie posters come in various types. Among them, 'concept poster' has been recognized as an important means to form the first impression of a movie at the early stage of promoting the movie. In China, however, there are not many movie posters that have been recognized for their creativity. Accordingly, it calls for research on creative methods of implicitly expressing the content of the movie. This study analyzed visual expressions in the concept posters of HuangHai, who has been recognized not only for commerciality but also for artistry. The results showed that he did not use images of famous scenes and actors in the movie. Instead, he created the implicit image that reflects the main theme of the movie by using Minimalism, color, typography, and pictorial images. This study has a significance in terms of providing fundamental resources for improving movie poster designs in China.

This research analyzed 'esquisse', that is one of among the visual representation tools of designers in design-thinking process. They were classified into five different types(M, N, O, P, Q) and categorized about preferred type of brain dominance area based on Ned Herrmann's 'Brain 4 division theory'. By contrasting and analyzing five types of sketch tendencies and brain tendencies through Structural left -brain type(M), Emotional limbic-brain type(N), Visual right-brain type(O), Plane expressional right-brain type(P) and Text expressional right-brain type(Q), it was deduced that which utilization the designer with each brain type with various Styles and characteristics shows internally in the design thinking process can be analyzed.

This thesis is research about the development and application of the panorama image in contemporary artwork, focusing on sculpture and installation. The samples of artworks are a selection of representatives from numerous examples of works that cannot be introduced without exceeding a reasonable scope of the thesis. A brief outline of the historical concepts of the perspective will describe the development of the panorama in itself. Some technical explanations and the practical use of the panorama with its link to 3-dimensional applications should bridge the explanation gap between the 2nd and 3rd dimensional usage of the panorama in contemporary artwork. Furthermore, some philosophical statements are proposed in the discussion. One of the main interests and initial motivation of this study was my personal believe that there is always a relationship between social philosophical values and the way a society sees or encounters visual structures. In other words the contemporary understanding of space and perspective is mirroring the actual zeitgeist and creates an exemplary visual aesthetics.
