The Digital Blossoming: Generative Flowers of Ethnic Wisdom
Pages 532 - 536
Abstract
This research explores the computational empowerment of intangible cultural heritage through interactive generative platforms. Prototypes in TouchDesigner software visualize traditional Kam minority patterns by applying particle system effects to highlight symbolic meanings. Users actively transform heritage visuals through real-time interaction, fostering cultural appreciation. Technical realization involves visual programming to construct specialized generative workflows. Phases of diffusion and dissipation of culturally significant motifs are configured procedurally. Preliminary explorations will inform training generative AI models by discerning cultural logic. The goal is an adaptive living database where tradition evolves algorithmically. This pioneering approach synergizes heritage and technology to maintain intangible culture. It provides a model for participatory digital curation where communities actively shape legacies. Limitations around complexity persist. However, the research pioneers cultural resilience through computational creativity.
