Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate tasks of music education for the post-digital age. Since the post-digital implies viewing human beings in the co-existence of digital and analog, tasks of music education for the post-digital age are to find an answer to the question of ‘How should music education be pursued for the co-existence of human and technology?’ For this, the present researcher synthesizes the thinking of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and Heidegger, who made philosophical arguments about technology and arts, and derives tasks of music education for the post-digital age. In conclusion, music education in the post-digital age should contain universal knowledge, enactive knowledge, and exploration into musical knowing, on the basis of ‘music education getting along with technology,’ reveal the mutual existence of learners and music through technology, and pursue goodness.
