허(虛)의 관점에서 바라본 매체의 상호관계 특성 연구

Abstract

Based on the characteristics extracted from Laozi emptiness, this study intends to suggest a new direction for the media to take in the future by grafting the theory of the media. The media, separated from the unilateral totalitarian culture, has emerged as an important topic of the 20th century culture that emphasizes interaction, but has been used as a tool for power and capitalism. This is because in traditional Western culture based on causalism, it was regarded as a channel that only conveys the message in one direction. However, as the importance of interaction increased, the media became important in changing the human life. In particular, Laozi, a main figure in Eastern thought, emphasized the relationship, dynamic change, emotions and feelings. Thus, the world is regarded as a network of relationships through the emotion exchange, and also viewed as an empty space where Tao plays a central role. Here, empty means not nothing but emptying for different individuals being harmonized. Hence, the true meaning of media is that it opens a place for spontaneous interaction and coevolution.
