Technology itself has been regarded as an instrument and has been restricted to instrumental terms. But technology also involves a non-instrumental or non-technological aspect. And this non-technological aspect is linked to a realm that has generally been cast as polar opposite of technology. That is, technology is necessarily infused with a living spirit, with soul. In contemporary cinema, morphing effect is the most advanced digital technology. And we remain astounded at the magic of transformation we see before us. Yet these morphing image also remind us that these are artificial effect. Therefore magical effect of digital technology is combination of the irrational with the rational. Before contemporary morphing image, we experienced ambivalent tension that oscillate between the sensory and the logical. Importantly, morphing is associated with omnipotence of thought. This is a conception of mind itself, because an event is occurred by thinking. Above all these image help us to elicit the sense of wonder and attraction of digital technology. The important independent function of this morphing image can be profitably considered as self- reflexive celebrations of film technology itself, and even as a kind of liberatory or utopian moment. Morphing fascinates us. But morphing is not merely a novel computer- graphic mode of configuration, and the morph is also merely a novel narratological figure. Morphing is concretions of contemporary confusions, fears, and desire. Above all that is allegory of late capitalist realism.
