摘要

數位科技近年加速發展，以數位創作書法的案例逐漸出現，雖不多見，對未來書法藝術發展方面會產生什麼影響，卻已經引起許多關注：究竟數位性的「書法」能夠怎樣呈現？有那些表現元素？它的藝術性在那裡？對「傳統書法」有什麼影響？這些都是當代才出現具有時代性的嶄新話題。本文針對「傳統書法」與「數位書法」創作元素，分內在元素與外在元素兩方面作嘗試性的比較分析，同時對當代「數位書法」創作媒材作一次理論初探。

The digital technology has developed rapidly recent years and the cases of digital calligraphy are getting more. Although the cases are not many, more people are noticing and interested in it. For example, how is calligraphy shown digitally?  What are the elements contained in the digital calligraphy? Where are the artificial characteristics located? What is the influence on traditional calligraphy? These are the up-to-date topics in the present time. This study was focused on comparing the internal and external elements of traditional calligraphy and digital calligraphy, and discussed the medium of creating digital calligraphy.

研究方法：「傳統書法藝術」經數千年發展，文獻極多；相反的，「數位書法藝術」可用文獻仍不多，資料獲取不易。本文研究方法，「傳統書法」方面擇要舉經典文獻對照；「數位書法」主要參酌葉謹睿所編「數位藝術概論（2007，二版）」一書，和若干數位科技文獻（含網路搜尋所得），摘取相關內容，針對兩者進行比較探討。
