This paper presents the artistic background and implementation structure of a conversational artificial intelligence interactive artwork, "An Evolving GAIA". Recent artworks based on artificial intelligence technology are introduced. Development of biomimetics and artificial life technology has burred differentiation of machine and human. In this paper, artworks presenting machine-life metaphor are shown, and the distinct implementation of conversation system is emphasized in detail. The artwork recognizes and follows the movement of audience using its eyes for natural interaction. It listens questions of the audience and replies appropriate answers by text-to-speech voice, using the conversation system implemented with an Android client in the artwork and a webserver based on the question-answering dictionary. The interaction gives to the audience discussion of meaning of life in large scale and draws sympathy for the artwork itself. The paper shows the mechanical structure, the implementation of conversational system of the artwork, and reaction of the audience which can be helpful to direct and make future artificial intelligence interactive artworks.

In this study, we consider the evolved interactivity at the Artificial Life Art beyond 'open interactivity' as 'closed relationship' between viewer/participant and artwork by immersive and interactive features of digital media art. In order to consider this evolved interactivity, we survey the theory of artificial life of which result of many studies like biology and computational science. And then we analysed characteristics related artistic context of artificial life at the autonomy and emergent behavior of artificial life. Especially, we research the artworks of interaction with ecologies and of living in outside(not in- silico) among the artworks of officially adopting an artificial life arts in 'VIDA : Art and Artificial Life International Awards'. And we are going to understand the relationship of emotional subjects between viewer/participant and artwork, and a step further to understand the diverse relationship of symbiosis and co-evolution of the technology and human.

In modern life, interior decoration has been transformed into a psychological synergistic effect of space, greatly affecting human sensibility. The main point of view in this paper is to study the discovery of new decorative effects and the possibility of products that can replace imported tiles, which account for more than 60% of the walls of indoor spaces closely related to daily life. The solution is to create point tiles using color glass plaster techniques developed in 2018 and to explore the possibility of decorating art walls to meet consumers' purchasing needs using simulations. The four patterns applied to the a paintbrush, resist printing, cutting technique, and inlaid patterns, and the traditional color development effect of the medium color suited to our sensibilities was studied. In addition, through simulation, art walls and acrylic using color glass styles were also used in the kitchen, living room and empty space of the bathroom. Based on this research, ceramic point tiles with a new perspective will be explored and the interior using walls will be activated.

Through everyday life to an art work creation, the computer technology is using intimately and infiltrated deeply in the digital era. Particularly dissemination and miniaturization of the computer cause remarkable development of computer and mobile game industry. Its popularity in general is reaching to the art field. This study contemplate the aesthetic changes and characteristics in game and dance convergence investigating the concept of art game and dance game as a new art form.

Arduino is an open-source prototyping platform. It has been used in diverse areas including media-art, simulation and interaction devices. The Arduino application does not provide an effective form of software design specification, since it is basically developed in C Programming language. In this paper, we propose a design method for the Arduino applications using the extension mechanism of the UML(Unified Modeling Language). The proposed method is enable to specify the main function of Arduino applications like digital I/O and analog I/O in UML notations.

The study of Artificial Life Art has affected the development of art using artificial life. Artificial Life Art started as a concern for microscopic organisms and has developed into works producing some creativities through the choices of spectators. The interests in real animals have resulted in the production of artificial animals such as cyber pets, and the interests in humans have been led to the creation of avatars. We will analyze the invisible emotional field of Naoko Tosa's works which use cyber pets and avatars, and clarify how the creative changes of Artificial Life Art affect the development of interactive art.

프로젝션 맵핑은 사물 위에 연출된 영상을 입힘으로써 사물에 시각적 효과를 주는 기법이다. 하지만 기존 방법은 사물의 위치, 방향을 맞추기 위해 여러 가지 비용과 노력이 필요하다. 우리는 직소퍼즐과 증강현실을 이용해 기존 방법의 한계를 개선한 새로운 프로젝션 맵핑 기법을 제안하다. 사용자는 직소 퍼즐을 맞춤으로써 콘텐츠 제작에 자연스럽게 참여하며, 완성된 퍼즐 이미지는 마커로 사용된다. 사물에 투영될 최종 영상은 인식된 마커의 방향을 따르기 때문에 사물과 투영 영상을 맞추기 위한 노력이 필요하지 않다. 또한 제안된 방법은 미디어 아트, 교육용 콘텐츠, 컴퓨터 비전 애플리케이션 등 다양한 분야에 응용 가능하다.

Despite the growing educational demand for the extended reality (XR) convergence content creation for non-IT students, fewer studies have attempted to education material development. In this paper, non-IT students' requirement to create XR convergence contents was analyzed and designed framework system specification. The object-oriented application framework (OOAF) was developed for non-IT students to create XR convergence contents through simple interaction methods such as drag and drop in-game engines. To evaluate the developed framework XR contents development course was operated with 26 industrial design majors sophomore in university. More than 90% of students succeeded in working on prototype XR contents in Oculus Rift. This result will be expected to improve the quality of XR contents creation education for non-IT students and contribute to the growth of the future convergence contents industry.

The purpose of this study is to analyze research trends and the learners' preference for subject area of SW education content. First, we analyzed trends in the subject areas of various SW education contents in recent research literature, textbooks, and textbooks. Based on this, we defined six subject areas as storytelling, game, media art, educational learning contents, simulation. Also, we analyzed the case of college students based on the reason of SW implementation theme selection, selection method, and preference theme. As a result, the students were mainly influenced by their interests and teachers in the reason of topic selection, and they showed higher preference in game and storytelling subject area. We hope that this research will be reflected in balanced SW education contents design according to learner level in the future.

In the contemporary age, social environment has changed from analog to digital. As a media is developed, the public is more familiar to digital than analog. In this society, media art rises as new art. One of the most useful methods in the media art is projection mapping. In this paper, I propose a realization process of artwork 'Cloned Me' that is realized by projection mapping method. Artwork is formed by projecting image contents that are visualized a music on a steel structure. It is different from media facade that the object projected contents has a story composition. It is a strength that the object and contents are connected by story and composition. Also it can be modified each other easily for harmony because the structure is assembly-type. A face that is projected by beam projection is consist of unique structure not fixed rectangular frame. Artwork 'Cloned Me' has significance that it reflects the present age to develop digital cloning.
