프로젝트 · Projects — XD Lab 미디어아트 아카이브
XD Lab(경험디자인연구실)은 KAIST 산업디자인학과의 예술·기술 융합 연구 그룹이다. 강이연 교수가 이끌며, 미디어아트·인터랙티브 아트·웹 아트·프로젝션 매핑·몰입형 설치 등 예술과 기술의 경계에서 작품을 만들고 연구한다. 아래는 XD Lab 연구진이 제작한 주요 프로젝트 아카이브 — 단채널 영상부터 대형 프로젝션, 웹 기반 인터랙티브 작품, 센서 기반 설치까지 다양한 매체와 연도에 걸친 기록이다.
연구 영역 · Research areas
XD Lab의 작품과 연구는 동시대 미디어아트의 보다 specific한 실천들을 가로지른다 — 기하학·미분기하학·이론물리학을 시각·인터랙티브 매체로 옮기는 작업, 맥박 센서·바이오피드백 등 센서 기반 인터랙티브 아트, AI·생성형 시스템을 활용한 제너러티브 웹 아트 및 다중 기기 웹 아트, 실시간 데이터 시각화와 코드 기반 미디어아트, 단채널 영상으로 인류세(Anthropocene)·테크노스피어 담론을 다루는 영상 작업, 그리고 포스트-휴먼 도시·이미지 연구를 잇는 한국 웹 아트·인터랙티브 아트 실천이 그 예다.
이러한 작업은 KAIST 산업디자인학과(ID KAIST) 경험디자인연구실에서 예술공학·아트앤테크놀로지·HCI 예술의 학제 간 연구로 진행된다 — 카이스트 예술, 카이스트 디자인, 카이스트 아트테크, 한국 미디어아트 박사과정/대학원 맥락에서 작품 제작과 학술 논문이 함께 산출된다.
프로젝트 목록
Ω · Jeanyoon Choi (2025)
- Medium
- Multi-Device Web Artwork (4 Displays, 1 Mobile)
- Venue
- Design Korea 2025
Ω is an interactive, multi-device web artwork that critiques the vectorisation of human identity, specifically the MBTI craze in Korea. Initially, the audience engages with a GPT-based MBTI test via mobile, constructing a cylindrical 3D vector space on surrounding screens. However, the experience shifts as phones are accidentally shaken. Realising that these tremors trigger glitches, users actively shake their devices until the ordered system tilts and collapses. This deconstruction captures shaken, low-fidelity images of the audience, overwriting the polished AI simulacrum. Ω thus acts as a playful disruption, reclaiming undefinable human subjectivity from the panopticon of algorithmic classification.
MUESUM · Minhyeok Seo, Junyeong Im (2025)
Minhyeok Seo, Junyeong Im
- Medium
- Led wall, 3 '03 '' video, audio
- Venue
- KF XR Gallery
MUESUM is an immersive video work that allows experience of relation between endangered animals and humans.
Goldilocks · Intae Hwang (2025)
- Medium
- Real-time Participatory Data Artwork (Large LED Display, Sound)
- Venue
- KF XR Gallery
Goldilocks is a real-time participatory data artwork that explores the 'just right' equilibrium of our climate. By translating personal weather preferences into unique visual data units, the work maps a 'collective climate comfort zone'. Through a similarity-based spatial arrangement, it juxtaposes human desire with planetary reality, revealing the fragility of our ideal states while celebrating the resilience of collective hope.
SoTA · Jeanyoon Choi, Euan Kang, SeJoon Park, Minhyeok Seo, Prof. Yiyun Kang (2024)

- Venue
- KAIST Art Museum
SoTA is an interactive XAI Multi-Device Web Artwork. Audience’s phone initially navigates a 3d visualisation of 118 neural networks; when they leave, all screens erupt into chaotic monochrome patterns, exposing AI’s drift from human comprehension toward “AI for AI’s sake”.
