中国传统昆曲《牡丹亭》与数字媒体--互动表演和沉浸式戏剧

互动表演和沉浸式戏剧在这个新的数字时代的背景下出现在戏剧世界。在戏剧的世界里，如何在数字时代重组和重新定义戏剧世界，以达到预期的互动和沉浸的结果?戏剧中的身体、空间、时间与表演之间的关系是什么?它们如何相互作用?如何重新设计剧院空间?如何在戏剧中创造一个身临其境的空间?数字技术如何帮助观众扮演更具互动性的角色?

该项目提出了一种新的剧场形式，通过空间互动装置设计来评估表演、空间和观众之间的关系，从而为观众提供一种身临其境的体验。通过使用数字技术和计算机编程(处理，unity, kinect，投影映射等)，可以创造一个新的叙述和沉浸式空间。我将研究一个基于表演的互动装置的过程，它将支持戏剧空间的发展。在这个项目中，我选择了中国传统昆曲《牡丹亭》作为我的研究实例。昆曲是一种东方古典戏剧艺术形式。《牡丹亭》以梦为媒介讲述了一个超越时空，甚至超越生死的爱情故事。尽管如此，数字技术的应用可以带来一种新的、更好的戏剧诠释;古典戏剧与当代数字艺术的碰撞与融合，有可能赋予歌剧新的生命。这是对《牡丹亭》的精神解读，展现了女主人公杜丽娘对爱情的情感态度和对理想的勇敢执着追求。鼓励观众走进无处不在的空间，在梦境中反思自己，实现一种互动体验，让自己沉浸在充满内在意识的戏剧世界中。


Interactive performance and immersive theatre are emerged in the world of dramaturgy in the context of this new digital age. In the world of dramaturgy, how may one recompose and redefine the world of dramaturgy in the digital age to achieve the desired results of interactivity and immersion? What is the relationship between body, space, time and performance in drama? How can they interact? How to redesign theatre space? How may one create an immersive space in dramaturgy? How can digital technology help the audience to take a more interactive role? This project proposes a new form of theatre with a spatial interactive installation design that will assess the relationship among performance, space and audience, thereby provid-ing the audience with a thoroughly immersive experience. By using digital technology and computer programming (processing, unity, kinect, projection mapping, etc) a new narrative and immersive space may be created. I shall investigate the process of a performance based interactive installation which will support the development of the dramatic space. For this project, I have selected the traditional Chinese Kunqu Opera, THE PEONY PAVIL-ION, as my research example. Kunqu Opera is an Eastern classical dramatic art form. THE PEONY PAVILION tells a love story through the medium of dream, which is beyond space and time, even beyond life and death. Nonetheless, the employment of digital technology can lead to a new and better theatrical interpretation; the collision and fusion of classical drama and contemporary digital art has the potential to give the opera a new lease of life. Furthermore, this is a spiritual read to The Peony Pavilion, demonstrating heroine Du Liniang’s emotional attitude towards love, and the brave and persistent pursuit after ideals. Audiences are encouraged to walk into the space everywhere, to reflect themselves in the dream, to achieve an interactive experience and to immerse themselves in the dramatic world which bring themselves inner awareness.
