With the rapid development of media environment and contents production technology, the era of multi-platform convergence transmedia has emerged, and communication method through trans media contents has attracted attention. Transmedia content refers to the concept of translating individual content into multi-platforms, which creates an expanded worldview of convergence. In addition, the interaction generated in this process is very important and difficult to control in the progress of the content. In this paper, we focused on the combination of transmedia content and gamification concept as a solution, and based on the 'MDA framework' which is a theoretical system of analysis and approach for implementing game design, We looked at the structure. It is expected that a review of the fundamental game design structure, which establishes a prediction system of value and fun experiences through the balance of technology and emotions, will be helpful as a basis for designing trans media contents.

The aim of this paper is to design an intelligent character manipulation system suitable for the wireless broadband network environment named as Wibro and for the recent social networking service (SNS). The main feature of our proposed system is an automatic synthesis of a character utilizing the meta data which is attached to each component stored in a character database. It is the second advantageous feature that a user can make or modify his or her own character by modifying the component animation clip of its character. Once the character database is created, it can be represented and utilized in several ways by utilizing the meta data which is related to personal properties including emotion, life style, favorite things, and so on. The system can be evolved to a more powerful one by adopting the more user-related information and the more intelligent synthesis module.

본 논문에서는 박물관에서 사용되는 전시 매체 중 지형 및 건축 문화유산 모형을 활용한 Visual SLAM 기반 증강현실 시스템 활용을 제안한다. 현재 박물관에서 다양한 디지털 전시가 도입되고 관람객과의 상호작용을 중요시하고 있으나 오래전부터 도입된 지형 및 건축 문화유산 모형의 ICT 기술 활용은 미흡한 상황이다. 이에 본 연구에서 제안한 Visual SLAM 기반 증강현실 시스템은 현실 객체의 특징점을 인식하여 3D 객체를 증강하기 때문에 다양한 크기와 형태의 문화유산 모형에 활용될 수 있다. 이러한 시스템 제작을 제안함으로 박물관에 전시되어있는 기존 모형의 활용도 및 전시 효과를 높일 수 있고 다양한 인터랙션 설정으로 추가 정보 또한 제공할 수 있다.

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.

There are many cases that messages of boring contents of most contents with public interests appear on the surface. Audiences don't think these contents are interesting. It is true that animations cannot be generally boring when delivering messages of public interests. was produced to focus on making audiences experience that a global warming story, the boring and textbook contents is interesting. And it was composed by the multiform story to realize narration through audiences' participation by utilizing the characteristics of live windows, not just watching the animation. This paper examines the differences between theaters and live window through the case that was produced and examples which utilized interaction for audiences' participation based on this. It analyzes the differences between environments according to characteristics of places and audiences in the differences between the theaters and live window, examines the examples to utilize interaction focusing on the process that narration is gradually changed as response to user environment design and interaction for unspecified individuals, and suggests direction that animation should move forward as public art based on the results to show the animation in Millano Piazza. According to the characteristics of live windows, the audiences of are people in the streets who are heading for different destinations, not the ones who come to theaters to watch the animation. Showing the animation with narration to them was a new attempt. When it began to show it in Millano Piazza, the audiences were very satisfied with the experiences that the stories were changed as they participated in it by themselves and naturally thought of global warming problems. You cannot know how the message of change people's habits and thoughts for the present, but this attempt was an opportunity that animations play the social role. Many animations are being produced in the world. Most of them are being done to aim at theaters, TVs, and film festivals. They should meet audiences through more various methods. One of them is animations as public art. And can be the new attempt in this sense. And in the future, animations as public art should make efforts to show you interesting experiences that you can share thoughts to be able to live together. As art of various media is changing to the one which considers public interests, animations can be new types of public art by integrating them with various technologies.
