Transformation Chinese Kungfu to be New Design Animation and Interpretation Tao Philosophy
Main Article Content
บทคัดย่อ
This research aims to 1) analyze the aesthetics and Taoist philosophy inherent in traditional Kung Fu and its potential expression in modern animation, 2) explore multidimensional visualization techniques to innovate Kung Fu representation, and 3) interpret Taoist philosophical concepts through animation to evoke audience reflection on the harmony between humanity and nature. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining a qualitative analysis of Taoist texts and martial arts aesthetics with a practice-based creation of an animation prototype. This process utilized 3D motion capture and particle effects to visualize intangible concepts like "Qi" and "Wu Wei." The results demonstrate that animation is a superior medium for visualizing abstract philosophical concepts compared to traditional forms. Specifically, the integration of particle effects successfully visualized the flow of energy, while the narrative structure effectively conveyed the balance of Yin and Yang. This study concludes that transforming Kung Fu through multidimensional animation not only preserves the martial art form but also deepens the philosophical understanding of the "unity of heaven and man" for contemporary audiences.
