Abstract—New media technologies drive the transformation of dance language from “body ontology” to “audio-visual fusion”, at the core of which is the multimodal reconstruction of dance body symbols and audio-visual symbols of images. Based on the framework of Saussure’s semiotics, Bakhkin’s dialogue theory, and Kristeva’s intertextual theory, and in combination with cases such as Henan Satellite TV’s “Tang Palace Banquet” and the variety show “Dance for a Thousand Years”, this paper dissects the mechanism of text transformation of dance language: The camera language achieves vertical deepening of expression through the “secondary encoding” of body symbols through shot size arrangement and motion design; Visual text builds a network of intertextuality based on the fusion of virtual and real and the design of light and shadow, promoting the horizontal extension of meaning. Research shows that this transformation reshapes the system of dance symbols and helps classical dance shift from “theatrical aesthetics” to “media aesthetics”, but beware of the risk of ontological dissolution caused by technology. This paper provides a theoretical reference for dance language innovation and cultural inheritance in the new media era, emphasizing that the application of technology should adhere to the ontological nature of art.
