Abstract

Interactive art, with a new attitude, changes the classical approach to the status of the audience as ineffective observation and then, transforms he/she, into one of the main pillars of creating the work based on interaction and portability that it is considered a contemplative view of human from the view of postmodern philosophy. The philosophical view of Gilles Deleuze as one of the most sophisticated approaches to human life can be used to analyze the questions of this writing, which relates to the audience and its role in shaping the work of art. Also some terms such as Becoming, Rhizome and Body without organs which is proposed by Deleuze can be used in the analysis of audience behaviors. The questions are; Interactive art can be the equivalent the concept of Becoming And choices the audience facing with, how can related to the definition of the organs without body and the rhizome. For answering to the questions, the basic information was extracted from library and digital resources, then by using these documents, the position of the audience was described in an analytical-descriptive way with Deleuze's approach. As a result, it became clear that the audience of interactive art faces a set of potentials that, according to the definition of an organs without body, it is unique for each individual audience. Each person's choices guide the process of creating an art work in a random and irregular route, similar to rhizome`s concept; A structure that is built along the path and at the moment. Always being at the moment, between the potential and the actual thing that the audience's choices leading it, is the philosophical definition of Becoming. The importance of the present study is in finding the connection between postmodern philosophy and postmodern Art.
