| Research Abstract |
In this research project, through examining theoretical discourses in new media studies and analyzing the similarities and differences between analogue media and digital media, I explored three questions ; of the significance of the visual image, of the relationship between the visual image and the body, and of the form of the understanding of the world. In doing so, I also attempted to construct the concept of the trans-medium, considering its theoretical possibilities for analyzing visual expression and its applicability to contemporary artworks employing visual images as well.
