Abstract

We have been working on the creation of media art, utilizing technologies. In this paper, we have focused on media art created based on the visualization of fluid behaviors. This area is named “fluid dynamics” and there has been a variety of research in this area. However, most of the visualization results of the fluid dynamics show only stable fluid behaviors and a lack of unstable or, in other words, unpredictable behaviors that would be significant in the creation of art. To create various unstable or unpredictable fluid behaviors, we have developed and introduced several new methods to control fluid behaviors and created two media arts called “Sound of Ikebana” and “Genesis”. Interestingly, people find and feel that there is Japanese beauty in these media arts, although they are created based on a natural phenomenon. This paper proposes the basic concept of media art based on the visualization of fluid dynamics and describes details of the methods that were developed by us to create unpredictable fluid dynamics-based phenomena. Also, we will discuss the relationship between Japanese beauty and physical phenomena represented by fluid dynamics.

Highlights

  • We have created media art in which new technologies play an essential role

  • We introduced a new method of letting color paints injected into fluid and dry ice bubbles interact to create beautiful forms of color paints, which led to the creation of a media art called “Genesis”

  • Methods received and many comments/opinions paper, we we proposed proposed new of media media art creation creation described their details

Summary

Introduction

We have created media art in which new technologies play an essential role. Recently, we have been interested in the usage of a high-speed camera, through which we have found hidden beauty in various natural/physical phenomena that could be revealed. We have been interested in the fluid behaviors and have been trying to create media arts by capturing fluid behaviors using a high-speed camera Based on this methodology, we have been trying to create new types of media art (Feng Chen and Tosa 2013). Arts 2019, 8, 38 by a high-speed camera and based on the editing of the obtained video, a new type of media art called “Sound of Ikebana” was created (Pang and Tosa 2015; Naoko Tosa et al 2015). We introduced a new method of letting color paints injected into fluid and dry ice bubbles interact to create beautiful forms of color paints, which led to the creation of a media art called “Genesis”.
