다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper focuses on the interactive media art works based on the symbolic and creative meaning of the mirror. First, we morphologically classify the existing works, and analyze the artistic expression techniques and meaning of each works. Using media art, this paper expresses that although our unconscious mind tends to distort the object in the desired direction, we are unaware of the truth. This paper describes the concept of the work, producing technique, installation type, and reactions of visitors. This work gets the color image and the depth data using Kinect camera. Using the color and depth data, we detect the hand region, and apply a fisheye lens distortion effect on the image based on hand region. The proposed work shows visitor the distorted himself reflecting on the mirror using a projected screen, and makes the visitor see distorted appearance of himself through the mirror a familiar medium. Through this work, the visitor recognizes that through the distorted inner gaze, people see the object.
