電腦動畫是目前媒體藝術發展中,最快速也最受世人所矚目的一個專業領域,Zoomquilt Animation是2004年新興起的技術,由德國尼古拉斯·鮑姆加滕 (Nikolaus Baumgarten)結合一群藝術家、設計師、數學系學生共同合作創立,目的是提供藝術家們一個在線展演空間。Zoomquilt動畫由許多單獨的插圖,與對方進行無縫結合成一個連續的超現實主義的幻想世界。它的光學幻覺與無縫結合卻意外引發網路上熱烈的討論與關注,此創新表現方式賦予2D Flash動畫新的表現風格。 神話是特殊文化遺產源自原始先民生活經歷中累積來的,具有神秘與豐富的幻想空間,與各國文化發展息息相關。基於對神話的熱愛,本論文以中國創世「神話」作為創作主題。故事內容由中國人的宇宙觀、天地形成、人類的由來,以及種族生命的延續等經典故事組成。動畫創作表現技法有手繪、電腦合成等方式。結合Zoomquilt Animation技術與光學幻覺、無接縫的特性,經由滑鼠來控制前進後退播放無限延伸的縮放動畫。最後研究分析影響視覺錯視的原因,達到豐富設計創作與技術研究目的。 關鍵字:Zoomquilt Animation, Flash Animation、視覺錯覺、創世神話
Abstract The fast development of Computer Animation Technology affects greatly to be popular trends and art presentations. Mr. Nikolaus Baumgarten from Germany assembled the artists and Flash designers as well as the mathematics students created the new technology of 2D online artworks in 2004, it’s called “Zoomquilt”. Zoomquilt animation consists of many separate illustrations that were combined seamlessly with each other into one continuous surreal fantasy world. Its zoom optical illusion and combined seamlessly was accidentally triggered a lively discussion on the network and the performance of this innovative given 2D Flash animation new style. The Myth is a special cultural heritage from the accumulated life experiences of primitive ancestors, with rich varies mysterious and fantasy spaces and closely with national cultural development. Based upon loving the Myth, so the subject of “Genesis Myth of China” is choosed. The animation contains Chinese universal view, the form of the world, Origin of Man and continuation of racial life. Animation techniques will by hand drawing, computer-generated imagery technology in the work. And controlled by the mouse back and forward, loop combined seamlessly zoomquilt animation. Finally, to study the effect of visual illusion , for enrich the creative work and sharing technology research. Keywords:Zoomquilt Animation, Flash Animation, Visual(Optical) illusion, The Myths of Genesis
