Artistry playground: A tangible ecosystem empowering children’s creative expression through musical and artistics interactions

Abstract

In recent years, the rapid rise and robust development of information technology and digital engineering have contributed great achievements across various fields, making society increasingly advanced and convenient. The integration of technology with culture and the arts has become more prevalent and widely applied in schools and research, serving as an essential tool for artists and future creative endeavors. In fact, numerous studies have been conducted in this domain. However, previous research has encountered difficulties in reaching users, as this "Technology" remains relatively novel to society, posing significant challenges, especially for younger audiences. To resolve this concern, this study proposes a solution that integrates tangible interface interaction between software and hardware, computers and physical objects. It aims to emphasize the role of "Technological Art" in society, fostering and unlocking creativity in children by increasing their interest in technology and artistic music. The project is titled “Artistry Playground: A Tangible Ecosystem Empowering Children’s Creative Expression through Musical and Artistic Interaction”. The research focuses on tangible interface interaction through QR codes and control mechanisms on a virtual screen corresponding to different musical notes. Through persistent research and relentless effort, this project seeks to inspire young generations to develop a deeper appreciation for musical arts, fostering excitement when playing a piece of music not only on a virtual screen but also by interacting with tangible objects. This approach encourages children to embrace music creativity in a modern, technological style while preserving traditional values from the past
