在这篇文章中，我们展示了当代首饰中的工艺实践如何打开了“数字珠宝”的概念，使其成为可能，而不仅仅是将数字系统的预先存在的行为嵌入到物体中，这些物体遵循对珠宝的肤浅解释。我们认为，只从珠宝在身体上的位置来理解珠宝的设计方法，很可能会导致一个充满“小玩意”的世界，而不是任何配得上“珠宝”这个绰号的东西。相反，通过采用工艺方法，我们展示了数字珠宝空间可以包括数字功能被整合为对象的一个方面的对象，这可能对持有者或佩戴者具有个人意义。
In this paper, we demonstrate how craft practice in contemporary jewellery opens up conceptions of ‘digital jewellery’ to possibilities beyond merely embedding pre-existing behaviours of digital systems in objects, which follow shallow interpretations of jewellery. We argue that a design approach that understands jewellery only in terms of location on the body is likely to lead to a world of ‘gadgets’, rather than anything that deserves the moniker ‘jewellery’. In contrast, by adopting a craft approach, we demonstrate that the space of digital jewellery can include objects where the digital functionality is integrated as one facet of an object that can be personally meaningful for the holder or wearer.
