人与艾叶——文化传承与生态永续推辩

2025-05-10 上传，收录于 设计批评与反思

随着现代社会的快速发展，艾灸作为传统中医文化的代表性实践正面临严峻挑战。一方面，城市化和无烟化趋势导致传统艾草燃烧疗法的应用受限，其生态可持续性受到威胁；另一方面，艾灸逐渐被功能化为单一的理疗手段，其深厚的文化语境和传承价值正在逐步淡化。 针对这一现状，本项目聚焦于生态可持续和文化可持续两个核心议题，从多维视角展开深入探讨。通过思辨设计的方法论，探讨艾草资源的合理利用及其生态影响，同时重构艾灸背后的文化逻辑与社会意义。我们设计并组织了一场以“人与艾叶”为主题的参与式工作坊，借助文化碎片卡、身体感知卡、科技反思卡等工具，引导参与者在共创中重新认识艾灸的价值与潜力。 With the rapid development of modern society, moxibustion, as a representative practice of traditional Chinese medicine, is facing severe challenges. On one hand, urbanization and the trend toward smokeless environments restrict the application of traditional mugwort-burning therapies, posing a threat to their ecological sustainability. On the other hand, moxibustion is gradually being reduced to a functional physical therapy, with its profound cultural context and heritage value fading over time. In response to this situation, this project focuses on two core issues: ecological sustainability and cultural sustainability, exploring them from multiple perspectives. By employing the speculative design methodology, the project investigates the rational use of mugwort resources and their ecological impact, while reconstructing the cultural logic and social significance behind moxibustion. A participatory workshop themed “Human and Mugwort” was designed and organized, utilizing tools such as cultural fragment cards, body perception cards, and technology reflection cards. This workshop aimed to guide participants in co-creation to rediscover the value and potential of moxibustion.
