Abstract
In recent years, technology has brought about groundbreaking changes in how people live and explore various fields. However, these changes have not only altered how people interact but have also redefined how culture and art are presented and received in the physical world. In response, artists in Taiwan's indigenous music and performing arts industries are actively seeking new roles in this dynamic environment. Therefore, this study focuses on these industries in Taiwan and employs in-depth interviews with cultural respondent, including curators, educators, and representatives of cultural organizations, aiming to gain a deeper understanding of the role of technology in promoting and innovating culture. The findings reveal that technology plays a crucial role in cultural promotion and innovation, expanding cultural influence and providing innovative dissemination methods. However, the study also underscores the importance of using technology judiciously to protect the authenticity of culture and maintain a balance between heritage and innovation. Successfully integrating traditional and modern, local and global elements is identified as a crucial strategy for ensuring cultural transmission and sustainability. This research provides valuable insights for artists striving to maintain cultural resilience in the digital era and highlights the need for ongoing adaptation and integration of technology in artistic practices. The study proposes five recommendations: appropriate application of technology, the importance of cross-disciplinary collaboration, continuous monitoring of contemporary trends, cultural preservation and inheritance, and flexible innovation strategies. These recommendations aim to provide artists with references to maintain cultural resilience in the digital age.
