泰雅族編織箱之文化人因工程研究
中文摘要
文化人因工程學之研究目的，在於探討如何經由「人因工程」的研究，將不同的文化特色經由互動與經驗交流，將「文化創意」加值產品「設計」，也就是「創意」如何「加值」設計，進而達到豐富文化創意產業之內涵。現代設計師更需要透過與歷史文化的交流尋找設計創意，透過文化人因工程的探討，將有助於把文化內涵加入產品創意設計中。因此，本研究計畫嘗試從文化人因工程的角度切入，探討文化創意產品的設計，並以原住民編織箱的人因工程探討為例，了解這種特殊的編織工具，如何編織出那麼動人的圖案，結合「人因工程」與「創意設計」，了解「編織箱」之人因工程設計相關的考量因素。探討「原住民文物」如何經由「文化人因工程」相關研究，建立一套編織工具與服飾設計轉換原則，提供設計師設計文化創意產品之參考。
Abstract
Cultural ergonomics is an approach that considers interaction- and experience-based variations among cultures. Cultural ergonomics extends our understanding of cultural meaning and our ability to utilize such understanding for design and evaluate everyday products. Designers need to develop a better understanding of cultural ergonomics not just to participate in cultural contexts but also to develop interactive experiences for users. The purpose of this project is to explore the meaning of cultural objects and to extract their cultural features from Taiwan’s aboriginal culture. This project attempts to illustrate how by enhancing the original meaning and images of Taiwan aboriginal culture features and by taking advantage of new production technology, they may be transformed into modern products and so fulfill the needs of the contemporary consumer market. The gungu, literally “weaving box”, in the Atayal aboriginal language, was chosen as the cultural object for this study. The project focuses on and analyzes the weaving box’s appearance, usability, cultural meaning, operational interface, and the scenario in which it is used. Then, this project intends to create an interface for examining the way designers communicate across cultures as well as the interwoven experience of design and culture in the design process.
