Wind of Bamboo: A Chinese Handwriting Mingling Interactive Installation Based on Human-Ai Collaborative Font Design

In the era of information, the feeling that the pen tip rubs against the paper is getting farther away, and the way of writing Chinese characters with strokes is gradually alienating. In response to this problem, this work tries to help people relive the touch of handwriting through the mingling of real and virtual experiences. The designer collaborated with AI to design a Chinese font that integrates bamboo leaves’ shape and Chinese characters’ structure. Based on the font, an interactive installation was set up to start a virtual Chinese poetry bamboo forest scene through real handwriting behavior.
