摘要:Multimedia technology has influenced modern society in many ways. Multimedia has evolved to applications in physical space, wherein media such as sound, visuals and interactive content have taken on spatial significance. Especially interesting for architectural design is the progressive approach to spatial context evident in multimedia installation artworks and interactive spaces. This paper seeks to identify key forms of influence multimedia has in an architectural context and the spatial significance of architectonic functions afforded by those influences. Multiple case studies were conducted applying a systems theory approach to evaluate 25 works of multimedia installation art and interactive spaces. Evaluations referenced the forms of media used, their observed influence on the correlating architectural space and the manner in which people experience the resultant space. Based on observations and analysis, this paper is proposing transformation, interaction and temporality as three key influences of multimedia. These influences and the architectonic functions they afford were used to create a matrix framework that indicates the potential of multimedia in an architectural context and establishes a theoretical basis for developing methods to integrate multimedia technology into architectural design.
