Contemporary media has expanded the function of communication between
senders/receivers and authors/audiences to such an extent that we
can no longer disregard the importance of interactivity. As the technology
of the interface has become more adaptable, complex and diversified,
virtual communication utilizing all human senses has become possible
for the first time. How then has interactive communication transformed
the essence and function of art and culture? How has it deepened the
understanding of human interaction? Where will the crossings of these
media and interactive art proceed to next? Our discussion will range
from an analysis of the present situation to the visions of the future.
