  • 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.

  • This study was done to investigate the effects of cinema therapy on schizophrenia patients' depression and self esteem. The research design was a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. Participants were recruited from two mental health facilities in J city(20 in the experimental group and 20 in the control group). The research was carried out from March to April, 2010. The cinema therapy was conducted seven times. After the cinema therapy, depression of schizophrenia patients in experimental group was lowered compared with that of patients in control group, and the difference was statistically significant (t=-4.17, p<.001). After the cinema therapy, self esteem of schizophrenia patients in experimental group was improved compared with that of patients in control group, and the difference was statistically significant(t=5.77, p<.001). The results indicate that the cinema therapy was a useful program leading positive effects on depression and self esteem in schizophrenia patients.

  • Latest digital cinema is getting more interest on recent days. The combination of visually immersive 3D movie with chair movements and other physical effects has added more enjoyment. The movement of the chair is controlled manually in these digital cinemas. By the analysis of the digital cinema's video sequences, movement of the chair can be controlled automatically. In the proposed method first of all the motion of focused object and the background is identified and then the motion vector information is extracted by using the 9-search range. The motion vector is determined only for the movement of background while the object is stationary. The extracted Motion information from the digital cinemas is used for the movement control of the chair. The experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the existing methods in terms of accuracy.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of group cinema therapy program on self-esteem and interpersonal relationship in nursing students. Methods: A nonequivalent control group pre-posttest design was used. There were 58 nursing students enrolled in this study. Thirty in the experimental group, and 28 in the control group. They were recruited from 2 different nursing schools located in M city. Group cinema therapy program was performed for 120 minutes, two times a week, for a total of 8 sessions. SPSS 20.0 using the t-test, and independent t-test were used for data analysis. Results: After the intervention, the group who participated in the program showed an increase in self-esteem (t=12.09, p<.001), as well as an increase in interpersonal relationship (t=32.61, p<.001) compared with the control group. Conclusion: The results show that the group cinema therapy program has a significant effect on self-esteem and interpersonal relationship in nursing students. The program could be a useful intervention to improve self-esteem and interpersonal relationship in nursing students.

  • Digital cinema based on digital master distribution increases with stereoscopic film as the center. DCI specification V1.0 announced at 2004, it considerates stereoscopic film screening. And now, the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers is establishing a task force to define the standards of a stereoscopic contents viewed in the home. Today, most Hollywood commercial stereoscopic film features animation using computer graphic. However, considering film making characteristic, stereoscopic digital cinema is required shooting in real world and editing, screening. This paper presents possibility of stereoscopic examination at NLE in the stereoscopic workflow. And we will propose new stereoscopic digital cinema workflow to apply the stereoscopic examination. Based on experimental results, the 3D ready television using 120Hz has some obstacles for contents editing, but most domestic stereoscopic monitor using circular polarization is possible for successful editing.

  • Using effective light, which is physical experiences by its control and manner of adaption, and make human to recognize the shape and give the meaning, so that approaching against perception experimental method which plays a role in basic clue, is regarded crucial highly among human sensory organ. this study consider the perception conception, its feature and necessity against eyes' adaption among human perception experimental experiences which has been discussed indifferently for inner space. Also, we looked over the problems among actual examples of inner spaces which should be considered as to adaption conception of human beings. Furthermore, this study aims at basic studying, which searching for enable to adapt in case of planning for inner space planning and distributing the quality evaluation by using effective light.

  • The purpose of this research is to analyse the structural aspect of storytelling in contemporary cinema which is focused on the Apichatpong Weerasethakul's film. The structural/materialist filmmakers insisted the formal experiment of film form itself and the methodology to create meaning by using it. Apichatpong Weerasethakul accepted and recreated aesthetic result of the structural/materialist film to transform his own cinematic style. As a result, he expanded his film aesthetic to post-modern film aesthetics. For this, he created the structure of film by using diegetic and non-diegetic sound and image creatively. The conventional storytelling method of contemporary cinema is based on the classic theory of 'poetica' of Aristoteles, which creates illusory diegesis of cinema. but Apichatpong Weerasethakul seeks and re-constructs storytelling methodology based on the product of structural/materialist film.

  • TRiplet Ionospheric Observatory-CubeSat for Ion, Neutron, Electron & MAgnetic fields (TRIO-CINEMA) is a CubeSat with 3.14 kg in weight and 3-U ($10{\times}10{\times}30$ cm) in size, jointly developed by Kyung Hee University and UC Berkeley to measure magnetic fields of near Earth space and detect plasma particles. When a satellite is launched into orbit, it encounters ultra-high vacuum and extreme temperature. To verify the operation and survivability of the satellite in such an extreme space environment, experimental tests are conducted on the ground using thermal vacuum chamber. This paper describes the temperature control device and monitoring system suitable for CubeSat test environment using the thermal vacuum chamber of the School of Space Research, Kyung Hee University. To build the chamber, we use a general purpose thermal analysis program and NX 6.0 TMG program. We carry out thermal vacuum tests on the two flight models developed by Kyung Hee University based on the thermal model of the TRIO-CINEMA satellite. It is expected from this experiment that proper operation of the satellite in the space environment will be achieved.
