随着当前的数字技术，人们有大量的数字媒体档案，如图像和音频文件，但只有有限的手段，包括这些媒体在创作和制作的创造性实践。然而，研究表明，使用数字媒体制作往往会使这些媒体更加珍贵，人们喜欢用数字媒体进行创造。本文旨在开辟新的工艺手段，其中包括数字媒体与物理结构的集成，这里称为“混合工艺”的方式。混合工艺的概念进行了探讨，以告知产品或系统的设计，可能支持这些新的工艺实践。我们设计了“材料”-一个建筑集，允许在物理结构中包含数字图像和音频文件，通过使用可以显示图像或播放音频文件的有形建筑块，以及各种其他物理组件-并在四个动手创意工作坊中使用这一套，以深入了解人们如何进行混合工艺;混合工艺是否可取;混合工艺的特点是什么;以及我们如何设计来支持这些实践。通过反思这些研讨会的发现，我们为设计新颖的混合工艺产品或系统提供了具体的指导方针，这些产品或系统可以解决工艺背景，过程和结果。我们的目标是打开设计空间，为混合工艺设计，因为这些新的实践为未来的工艺设计提供了有趣的新挑战和机遇，可以带来新颖的创意表达形式。
With current digital technologies, people have large archives of digital media, such as images and audio files, but there are only limited means to include these media in creative practices of crafting and making. Nevertheless, studies have shown that crafting with digital media often makes these media more cherished and that people enjoy being creative with their digital media. This paper aims to open up the way for novel means for crafting, which include digital media in integrations with physical construction, here called ‘hybrid crafting’. Notions of hybrid crafting were explored to inform the design of products or systems that may support these new crafting practices. We designed ‘Materialise’—a building set that allows for the inclusion of digital images and audio files in physical constructions by using tangible building blocks that can display images or play audio files, alongside a variety of other physical components—and used this set in four hands-on creative workshops to gain insight into how people go about doing hybrid crafting; whether hybrid crafting is desirable; what the characteristics of hybrid crafting are; and how we may design to support these practices. By reflecting on the findings from these workshops, we provide concrete guidelines for the design of novel hybrid crafting products or systems that address craft context, process and result. We aim to open up the design space to designing for hybrid crafting because these new practices provide interesting new challenges and opportunities for future crafting that can lead to novel forms of creative expression.
