Abstract:
The paper presents a human-machine design approach to the artistic and metaphoric representation of the traditional weaving scene of Yunjin brocade as interactive Moiré patterns accompanied by Nanjing Baiju. We extract the basic elements of Moiré patterns and systematically recompose them to mimic the weaving process. Then, we wrote an algorithm to generate eye-shaped Moiré patterns responding dynamically to the unique sounds weavers make while weaving, symbolizing the long and tiring gaze of warp and weft, and eye contacts between weavers. Finally, we develop a sonic interactive installation with the rhythmic machine sound and Nanjing Baiju Sweating Weaving Room, visualizing the hard labor and harmonious work hidden behind the glamourous brocade.
