“…Learning advanced Intelligent Technology design concepts and technologies, and exploring the production concepts and methods of musical theater with Chinese characteristics, creating an immersive experience of Chinese original musical theater is the direction of the prosperity and development of this industry. [9] (1) Combination of Light and Shadow in XR Space In the prelude scene, the cinematic shooting technique breaks the physical boundary between the real world and the virtual world through optical motion capture technology. In the musical monologue "I don't know when I fell in love with him, but now I firmly know I really love him (her)", Tang Xianzu's Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei meet in the Chinese garden with butterflies flying in the virtual space.…”

XR technology provides a broad space for the creation of musicals and gives the audience a more aesthetic and real sensory experience. Based on the design of a three-dimensional system to display the beauty of dance, This study uses sophisticated scientific and technological means such as optical motion capture technology, virtual shooting and green back matting synthesis to present the virtual space under the specific situation of musical drama from a 360 degree free perspective in the XR stage virtual scene, and realize the interaction between roles and scenes, so that the audience can be better immersed in it. Taking the local musical "Tang Xianzu" as an example this paper analyzes the free shuttle of actors between the screen, stage and theater under the XR technology, and the aesthetic artistic space construction leads the audience into the dramatic dream written by Tang Xianzu. The ingenious design transforms "emptiness" and "prosperity" into an instant, integrates virtual traditional Chinese drama elements into the real stage, and interacts with real actors to immerse the actors and audience in the extraordinary life course of Tang Xianzu, a great Chinese man.

“…Viewers of art become 'users' of installations, galleries. 9 Employing simulative methodologies places greater weight on considerations of the user. As Chandler et al argue, it requires asking how designers call on users to look at, and act upon, cultural heritage objects: 'would players require goals and a virtual guide to direct them through a series of premeditated events?…”

In 1956, Sidney Nolan spent a day exploring the Gallipoli peninsula. Though brief, the experience crystallised in him the historical significance of the Dardanelles. 'I stood on the place where the first ANZACs had stood,' he later recalled, 'looked across the straits to the site of ancient Troy, and felt that here history had stood still.' 1 At the time Nolan had been reading Homer's Iliad, and was wrestling with how to reconstruct the grand, heroic narratives of classical mythology for a new time and a new place. On the shores of Gallipoli, where Australian troops had themselves reprised the campaigns of Xerxes and Agamemnon, he found inspiration. In the dense void of Nolan's The Galaxy (1957-58) (Figure 1)-one of the earlier paintings from the Gallipoli series he began in the mid-1950s and pursued for two decades-we see a pastiche of historical and aesthetic reflections on war and its aftermath. Looking at the ethereal forms of naked Australian soldiers drifting rhythmically across the surface of the painting, we are gripped by the melancholy with which Nolan looked back on the tragedy of the First World War. But the image also speaks of contemporary anxieties. The eddies and swirls that animate the work were intended by Nolan to evoke the interior of an atom, a potent symbol of force and fear in a postwar world haunted by the spectres of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And yet the anxieties may have also been deeply personal: Nolan's brother Raymond had drowned while on service shortly before the end of the Second World War. Nolan's confidante, Patrick White, who believed the work was proof that Nolan was Australia's greatest creative painter, read it best. Drawing back from the microscopic lens towards the telescopic, he read the swirls as the Milky Way set against a limitless blackness that had enveloped the events at Gallipoli under the auspices of a shared narrative of human history. In this sense, above all else, Galaxy offers one great gift to its viewer: perspective. A century after Nolan painted The Galaxy, the turbulent subatomic physics he depicted provide a new and unexpected orbit from which to map the artist's autobiographical ambiguities.
