The Space Musical “NARO”
• 우주, 미래, 희망을 주제로 하는 우주뮤지컬
나로의 특징은 무대장치를 전혀 사용하지 않고
인터랙티브 영상과 레이저 아트, 직접 제작한
특수장치 등을 사용하여 무대의 첨단화를
시도한 점이다.
• 한국의 고유한 설화인 ‘해와 달이 된 오누이’의
서사구조를 차용하여 천문학적으로 탄탄한
시나리오를 창작하고 청소년들에게 우주에
대한 꿈과 희망을 주는 한국 우주창조론을
재조명했으며, 뮤지컬 제작과정을 하나의
교육모델로 제시하고 있다.
A compelling SF space musical where the party of a genius
kid Naro, having conducted researches on space, makes a
time travel to Onooyee Star of Scorpio and struggles against
Tyran's conspiracy to bring about a massive explosion of the
red giant Antares for the conquest of the universe.
• 총 2막으로 구성된 ‘나로’는 우주를 연구하는
천재소년 ‘나로’ 일행이 전갈자리의 ‘해와 달이
된 오누이별’로 시간여행을 하면서 적색거성
안타레스의 대폭발을 통해 오누이별과 지구를
파괴하고 우주를 정복하려는 타이란의 음모를
막아낸다는 내용이다.

Sphere: Non-planar Display
Sponsors: 동대문디자인플라자 , 국립현대미술관
Non-planar displays such as spherical one shown
here have several distinctive advantages over the
conventional, planar ones. We investigate various
usages for entertainment, education and public
settings.
Paradigm: Parallel Tiled Display
Sponsor: 한국과학재단 (Korea Research Foundation)
This research is concerned with the information visualization
of real-time, big data on the tiled display system. Current
research efforts focus on (1) the interaction techniques, (2)
artistic transformation of serious information, and (3) novel
usages of the tiled display system
