As an emerging field in HCI, Digital Craft is often involved in debate on its concept that leads to distinctive practices. In this paper, the authors argue that the hybridization of digital power as computing and fabrication and human skills of ideation and hand-making sheds light on an important research direction for future inquiry of digital craft. In particular, the reported project focuses on bamboo craft making to explore the potentiality of digital craft through constructive design research methods. Through the collaborative making with craftspeople, methods of hybridizing digital power and human skills are explored by decoding and recoding the bamboo making process with inventive digital intervention, which enriches bamboo artifacts’ forms and integrates digital fabrication, such as 3D printing. Meanwhile, digital toolkits for bamboo weaving and a digital platform that can make computational design and craft more compatible are created and reported. The authors conclude with reported hybrid craft cases that the hybridization has the potential to stimulate a new generation of artisans.

An increasing number of residents are burdened with psychological pressure, and the majority of them refuse to seek professional mental help, falling to a “silent majority” of the untreated. This “silent majority” lives in every corner of cities, and public installations scattered in various spaces have the potential to become community emotional healing touchpoints. Therefore, it is urgent to establish a comprehensive evaluation system for emotional healing installations. This research establishes a physical appearance evaluation system for healing installations based on affinity analysis, thereby combining the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE) to construct data matrixes and quantitative analysis. The AHP results revealed some trends, including that placing environment is the most critical design indicator for healing installations, saturation is more closely associated with healing than color temperature, and small-scale installations have better healing efficacy. FCE ranked the combined weights of design indicators and revealed preference differences between Western and Eastern scholars regarding emotional healing. Eastern scholars show a clear preference for low-saturation colors and place significant emphasis on the multifunctionality of healing installations. Meanwhile, Western scholars have a stronger inclination toward healing shapes. Furthermore, this research conducts cross-category analysis and sensitive analysis to provide rigorous foundations for future healing research and offer guidance to future designers in healing installation design.
