This study investigated the role of fashion granfluencers as cultural intermediaries in the present digital era. The concept of fashion granfluencer as cultural intermediaries and their fashion style characteristics were defined and examined. The literature on cultural intermediaries, social media, and seniors in the context of fashion was reviewed. Primarily, three characteristics of cultural intermediaries-interactive communication, nonconformist attitude, and aesthetic disposition-were identified and used as analytical variables in this study. Through netnography, 1,452 Instagram posts from the renowned fashion granfluencer Iris Apfel (@iris.apfel) were examined. This study presented Iris as a fashion granfluencer and a senior professional, who uses fashion to express herself and define her identity. As a cultural mediator, she contributes to revitalizing the cultural economy and creating cultural products. Iris Apfel' fashion and style embody her digital persona. Her engagement in fashion activities-producing fashion content or attending fashion events-mediates the relationship between fashion producers and fashion consumers, thereby promoting the aesthetic value of fashion.

영화 'X-men'은 변신(metamorphosis)을 주요 모티브로 등장인물과 배경의 시각효과를 만들어 내며 내러티브를 이끌어간다. 본 연구의 목적은 변신모티브가 슈퍼히어로 영화의 장르적 특징 중 하나로 '파타피직스(pataphysics)'의 가상성을 기반으로 구현되며, 재현된 새로운 가상성은 변신모티브 영화의 미학적 특성이 될 수 있음을 제시하고자 한다. 파타피직스는 20세기 중반 유럽에서 시작되어 기존의 전통에서 탈피한 부조리와 사회에 대한 풍자 등의 파타포의 은유적 상징에 의한 고유의 특성을 가진 가상성으로 다다이즘과 초현실주의, 팝아트, 포스트모더니즘으로 이어지는 예술운동에 큰 영향을 주었다. 이러한 예술 장르의 작품에 나타난 파타피직스의 특성을 분석하고 이를 토대로 영화에 나타난 변신장면에 적용하였다. 그 결과, 영화에 나타난 변신장면의 미학적 특성으로 슈퍼히어로의 외형과 내적인 힘의 양태를 시각화하며, 또한 기술적 가상성과 더불어 가상과 현실의 중첩으로 이루어진 파타피직스의 현전성, 혼종성, 탈정형성의 재현함을 고찰하였다.

The purpose of this study is to develop highly valued fashion cultural items using Korean face and human images to enhance global competition. The methods of this study include: historical study on the face/human images which appear on the dress; design by stage according to Lamb & Kallal's apparel design process; development of products using digital textile printing technology; and case study by objective evaluation through Grant's alpha-beta model. The procedure and the results of this study are as follows: First, in the problem identification stage, the need to develop fashion cultural products of Korean face/human images which are symbolic, aesthetic, and functional was recognized in order to enhance global competition. Second, in the preliminary idea stage, the fashion cultural products and the components that meet the above 3 standards for design were determined and first design was drawn up. The source of the design was extrapolated from face/human images, which appeared on the murals of the ancient Korea, the portraits and custom paintings from the Chosun Dynasty. From these images, a total of 7 design series of T-shirts with an "ULGUL" logo, scarves, and artwalls were developed using "obangsaek" which are five Korean traditional colors including red, blue, black. white, and yellow on cottons and silks. Third, in the design refinement stage, based on the preference survey, more varying design methods were used to develop 25 new designs. Fourth, in prototype development stage, based on the preference survey conducted on fashion professionals and general public from the previous stage, which showed preference for T-shirts and scarves, 3 designs on T-shirts and 2 designs on scarves were printed and produced using the DTP (Digital Textile Printing). Fifth, in the evaluation stage, Grant's alpha-beta model was used to perform comparative evaluation on the symbolic, aesthetic, and functional criteria of the new designs over the existing ones. The new designs received excellent results in all three criteria and a special recognition was given to symbolism of the new designs.

로토스코핑 기법은 20세기 초부터 실제 인물의 움직임과 같은 자연스럽고 매끈한 움직임 구사를 위해 오랫동안 활용되어 왔음에도, 이미 촬영된 이미지를 단순히 모방한다는 이유로 예술적 가치가 평가절하 되며 일종의 편법이나 속임수 등으로 여겨져 왔다. 하지만 무한 융합이 가능해진 디지털 시대 속에서 실사와 애니메이션의 경계를 자유롭게 넘나들 수 있는 로토스코핑 기법의 활용은 오히려 리얼리티의 확장적 재현이라는 새로운 미학적 가능성을 제시하고 끊임없이 새로운 애니메이션적 체험의 층위들을 만들어내고 있다. 또한 이러한 로토스코핑의 다양한 융합적 특성들을 적극 활용하고 실험하고 있는 요나스 오델의 작품들은 로토스코핑 이미지가 스타일적인 측면 외에도, 내러티브를 강화하는 수단으로 역할 할 수 있음을 증명할 수 있는 대표적 사례이다. 본 연구는 요나스 오델 감독의 독특한 철학적, 미학적 스타일을 완성시킨 다큐멘터리 형식의 3가지 옴니버스 단편들 -<투실라고 Tussilago>(2010), <거짓말 Lies>(2008), <첫경험 Never like the first time!>(2006) -을 분석하고, 실존 인물의 인터뷰 형식으로 진행되는 내러티브와 실사 이미지와의 구조와 관계 속에서 로토스코핑 이미지들이 어떠한 독특한 역할로 의미 작용을 하는지를 살펴본다. 이는 세 가지 특성- 청각적 감성을 매개하는 내적 리얼리티의 형이상학적 기록으로서의 이미지, 특정 인물에 대한 존재적 표상으로서 익명화된 이미지, 물리적 시공간을 담아내는 기억의 표상으로서 신체 이미지-을 기준으로 분류되고 분석된다. 이를 통해 21세기 디지털 시대에 로토스코핑 이미지는 비단 자연스러운 움직임의 재현과 독특한 스타일을 위한 것을 넘어, 어떠한 새로운 가치들을 획득하게 되는지를 밝힐 것이다. 본 연구가 예술적인 면에서 평가절하 되어왔던 로토스코핑 이미지의 가치를 재발견, 재위치 시킬 수 있는 밑거름으로서 역할하고, 뿐만 아니라 미국, 일본, 혹은 특정 유럽국에 치우친 애니메이션 작가와 스타일 연구의 환경 속에서 세계적으로 주목받고 있는 스웨덴 작가와 그의 독특한 스타일을 새롭게 소개할 수 있는 좋은 계기가 될 수 있기를 기대한다.

The development in modern world media made information expansion and conversion much easier. These changes in media environment required a lot of companies to quickly respond to the overall environment and come up with new appropriate marketing strategies. Companies use experiential exhibition halls to enhance their images. The goal of the research is to set the basis for digital signage exhibition production characteristics as a spatial mechanism by presenting the need to use the digital signage as a tool. Digital signage expands senses and connects internal and external space. There are many types of digital signage (display, projection, special media, etc) and they are informative, aesthetic, inductive, and amusing. For research methods, Korean companies' exhibition halls sample analysis and surveys were executed to analyze the awareness, expression characteristics, effects, and usage status of digital signage. In conclusion, corporate exhibition halls should: 1. be an interesting and comfortable space that can be used as a communication tool between the company and consumers 2. increase corporate potentials and faith by expanding human senses and inducing new experiences 3. continue to capture the interest of spectators through diversity.

An exploration for an intelligence paradigm has been delineated. Artificial intelligence and artificial life paradigms seem to fail to show the whole picture of human intelligence. We may understand the human intelligence better by adding the emotional part of human intelligence to the intellectual part of human intelligence. Emotional intelligence is investigated in terms of composing machine as a modern abstract art. Various algorithmic composition and performance concepts are currently being investigated and implemented. Intelligent mapping algorithms restructure the traditional predetermined composition algorithms. Music based on fractals and neural networks is being composed. Also, emotional intelligence and aesthetic aspects of Korean traditional music are investigated in terms of fractal relationship. As a result, this exploration will greatly broaden the potentials of the intelligence research. The exploration of art in the view of intelligence, information and structure will restore the balanced sense, of art and science which seeks happiness in life. The investigations of emotional intelligence will establish the foundations of intelligence, information and control technologies.

Design is important in the IT, digital appliance, and auto industries. Aesthetic and art images are being applied for better quality of the products. Most image patterns are complex and much lead-time is required to implement them to the product design process. A precise reverse engineering method generating 2.5D engraving models from 2D artistic images is proposed through the image processing, NURBS interpolation and 2.5D reconstruction methods. To generate 2.5D TechArt models from the art images, boundary points of the images are extracted by using the adaptive median filter and the novel MBF (modified boundary follower) algorithm. Accurate NURBS interpolation of the points generates TechArt CAD models. Performance of the developed system has been confirmed through the quick turnaround 2.5D engraving simulation linked with the commercial CAD/CAM system.

Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film titled 2001: A Space Odyssey has generally been considered as a monumental piece of mainstream epic science-fiction. However, this film can be evaluated as having properties of experimental cinema by boldly trying technical innovation and aesthetic experiment in various aspects. From the filmmaker's process to filmic structure, technical innovations, screening method, $mise-en-sc\grave{e}ne$, cinematic style and its (auto-)reflexivity, 2001: A Space Odyssey is highly experimental. We will attempt to separate out aspects of 2001: A Space Odyssey that derive explicitly from traditions in experimental cinema, whether adopting those traditions or innovating within them, by identifying the film's experimental strategies and relating them to other experimental films that came before and after. This will show that the purely formal characteristics of the film's conception carry meanings on their own relating to Kubrick's personal expression, ideas about cinema and philosophy that go beyond the scope of the film's narrative.
