Various phenomena such as convergence of expression media in multimedia environment, integration of genres accompanying to this, destruction of types, and meeting between arts and science are intertwined and are making a huge convolution. Dance in under the culture of modern society, scientific technologies are progressing into state-of-the-art development and utilized in a variety.
Therefore, as it is expected that convergence of image media and arts will play an important role in the development of arts in the future and to maximize the effects of its function, these efforts suggest possibility of development into new arts fields to achieve maximization and diversification of expression. However, since people can expect that there are multi aspects of merits and demerits in the background of utilizing image media. It will firmly settle its position with academic foundation for the development of dance technology and will go far toward development of dance arts.
This research examines concept and development process of image media by recognizing the importance of image media which is expanding its field day by day and reviewed image media in arts by dividing into modern arts and performance arts. Under this prerequisite, it explains in what styles of changes and how did introduction and utilization of image media in dance develop in the past and kinds and characteristics of image media utilized in dance performance. Concurrently, the purpose of this research is to suggest theoretical foundation, so that pursue of maximization of expression according to utilization of image media in dance performance can be activated further in the future in the current dance world by examining utilization effects of works composed of convergence of image media and dance in visual and spatial aspects.
Out come of researches above will be described in following paragraphs.
First, it is discovered that utilization effects of image media revealed in visual aspects of dance performances have added reality of works and it was composed as we can note in a single glance what dance composers intended to express. It was found out that fast changes of scenes and adjustment of time could deliver the nature of tension and feeling of real places effectively.
In「Paradise」, visual effects hallucinating to be real in image were created through harmony of actions without boundary between animal or people and actual dancers by creating new images and effects using collage technique attaching in mixture of various materials on video images. In「Vivisector」, surfaces of dancers were expressed in diverse and sure expression with variation in media with various expressions by using video where it becomes one with physical body. In「Double Vision」, various holograms and laser images became more alive in more three dimensional and delicateness and by projecting computer graphic screen on projection screen, visual effects and creative expression like movies and surrealism images were expressed.
Second, utilization effects of image media depicted in dance performance in spatial aspect made it possible to adjust scope of utilization space and by expanding stage space more fluidly and actively, it was noted that they became heroes/heroines in performance by taking a role of not only free expression but also of main roles in performance and performance for showing characteristics of image media was also possible.
In「Paradise」, level of utilization of space was increased by installing the screen up to utmost top part of stage space and broad area of movement was provided by using three dimensional space in image. In「Vivisector」, changes were noted that spatial concept by the utilization of image media was contracted into physical body of dancers accommodating images. In「Double Vision」, changes of expansion of concept of space were appeared by forming splendid dynamic stage space composed of three dimensional cubic space and by using video images as the background, virtual space composed of computer graphic together with compound image composition have provided effects of movement of space.
As examined in the above, it was found out that effects in visual and spatial aspects were changes and appeared in a variety by the utilization of image medias. However, there are worries and concerns that it will rather hinder to have surplus of exploration of inside and visual exploration of feeling of dance composers if images armored with state-of-the-art technologies and afterimage of image become too big. Therefore, dance performances conducted in consideration of ability of dancers accommodating overall challenges of image media and feeling and atmospheres image media itself provides will contribute to development of image of new dances and can maximize uniqueness in methods of dance composition.
