保羅·瑟曼(Paul Sermon) 是1991年奧地利電子藝術大獎榮譽獎的得主，也曾在2005年於台中國立台灣美術館"快感"展中，展出作品「遠距離夢 05」的藝術家。保羅喜歡探索在遠端網絡的世界，並與遠端參與者在網域間互動。他透過色彩的調和以及視訊會議技術的運用，讓兩個空間內的參與觀眾，同時被連結在一個虛擬的空間中，變成一個可以互動的視覺裝置作品。此次演講，將針對他運用科技，進行互動裝置藝術之創作歷程開始談起，並針對藝術性與技術性進行一番探討與分享。
He won the Golden Nica at the Prix Ars Electronica in 1991. His work“Telematic Dreaming 05” has been part of “Climax-The Highlight of Arts Electronica” at the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts in Tai-chung. His work in the field of telematic arts explores the emergence of a user-determined narrative by bringing remote participants together in a shared telepresent environment. Through the use of live chroma-keying and videoconferencing technology, two public rooms and their audiences are joined in a virtual duplicate that turns into a mutual, visual space of activity. He is going to share the development of his arts practice in Telematic since the early nineties.

受 1990 Roy Ascott 的論文“Is There Love in the Telematic Embrace無線網域的擁抱裡有愛嗎?” Ascott 試圖將電子藝術中潛藏的愛具體化。保羅喜歡將遠端網絡的參與者集合在一個共享空間。任意的兩個空間因視訊會議技術而聯結，讓觀者即使在世界上的任何地方，仍能透過遠端網絡裝置而結合。
Inspired by Roy Ascott’s essay,“Is There Love in the Telematic Embrace?” (1990), where Ascott attempted to attribute to electronic art the potential to embody love. Paul Sermon’s work in the field of telematic arts explores the emergence of user-determined narrative between remote participants who are brought together within a shared telepresent environment. The two spaces which can be any geographical distance apart are linked via a videoconference connection, making it possible to link and combine these telematic installations and there performing audiences between almost any location in the world.
