ABSTRACT

This paper presents the remediation of a nineteenth century Korean manuscript (the 1809 Uigwe) as an interactive digital experience using creative algorithms and gesture recognition developed by LG Electronics. The interactive media project we created using sound visualization invites visitors to jointly experience Joseon’s royal music and the manuscript’s pictorial illustrations. We present the media development process and the results of a survey assessing users’ engagement. Our findings show that technological remediation can be a fruitful way to elicit interest for cultural heritage. The Uigwe media project enhanced the participants’ curiosity for the 1809 Uigwe, and the added sound of the traditional court music (Yeominlak) and the images of the musical instruments increased users’ understanding of the 1809 Uigwe and of royal court music. Overall, the study provides evidence about the use of multisensory digital media for fostering learning about and cultural appreciation of historical artefacts.

摘要

本文介绍了使用LG Electronics开发的创意算法和手势识别技术对19世纪韩国手稿（1809 Uigwe）进行的交互式数字体验的补救。我们使用声音可视化创建的交互式媒体项目邀请访问者共同体验朝鲜的皇家音乐和手稿的插图。我们介绍了媒体开发过程以及评估用户参与度的调查结果。我们的发现表明，技术补救可能是引起人们对文化遗产的兴趣的富有成效的方式。Uigwe媒体项目增强了参与者对1809年Uigwe的好奇心，并增加了传统宫廷音乐的声音（（Yeominlak）和乐器的图像增加了用户对1809年Uigwe和皇室音乐的理解。总体而言，该研究提供了有关使用多传感器数字媒体促进对历史文物的了解和文化欣赏的证据。
