Abstract
The cultural and creative industries are a form of
non-traditional manufacturing industry that has drawn considerable attentions from the government, the public, and the
academia. They require direct experience and close connection to the culture
and everyday life of the people. While they share the common purpose with
tourism of attracting visitors and boosting local economy, they differ
remarkably in aspects of contents and expressions. This paper proposes the
concept of “Musicgraphic images” as a form of interdisciplinary performance,
and discusses its three stages: 1. collection and selection of subjects and
themes; 2. content output; 3. performance and integration of related
industries. “Musicgraphic images” is a new concept of interdisciplinary
performance. The form blends music, dance, and computer animation, and its
themes arise from folk tales and folk festivities. The purpose of this new
concept is to highlight local culture, inspire a sense of shared recognition
and pride in local culture, and boost local cultural tourism and the
development of cultural and creative industries.
“Musicgraphic
images featuring Xuan Tian Shang Di (Supreme Emperor of the
Dark Heavens)” is the second work of the “Musicgraphic images” series, which
takes its theme from the ancient zodiac stories and the folk tale of “The Supreme Emperor of the
Dark Heavens Fights the Turtle and Snake Monsters.” The work incorporates the
images of the ancestors crossing the Taiwan Strait and overcoming hardship,
their paths righteous even in dark times, always seeking light. The performance
consists of orchestra, chorus, folk dance, and computer animation, making local
culture familiar to the audience. Its imagery design is characteristic of the
Taoist idea of “wu wei (doing nothing, or, natural action),” seeking to
boost industries related to folk culture.
