  • Improving work efficiency and satisfying customers through personalized services is becoming more important in an increasingly competitive hair industry. Wearables may help to improve hair designers' work efficiency and customer satisfaction by analyzing customer and hair designers' conditions and provide hair stylingrelated data. However, there is limited research on developing wearables for hair designers (WHDs), and many existing wearables were developed without understanding user needs and perceptions. This research investigated preferences, perceptions, and intentions on WHDs based on hair designers in the U.S., which is the largest hair market. Specific design options that hair designers preferred and possible options to meet requirements that hair designers expect for wearables were identified and suggested in WHD design guidelines. Second, most people preferred a WHD design of a black-colored bracelet/watch that can be a necklace designed with preferred functions; in addition, 3D virtual images and 3D printed models were prototyped. Third, developed designs were evaluated. More than 70% of users were satisfied and considered it as useful and easy to use, with an intention to purchase. The results are expected to provide insights to designers when developing WHDs.

  • How might historians secure for the river a larger berth in the recent macro-historical turn? This question cannot find a greater niche than in the emerging critique of the existing spatial configuration of regionalism in mainland Southeastern Asia. The Brahmaputra, Irrawaddy, Salween, Mekong and Yangtze rivers spread out like a necklace around Yunnan and cut across parts of the territories that are known as South, Southeast and East Asia. Each of these rivers has a different topography and fluvial itinerary, giving rise to different political, economic and cultural trajectories. Yet these rivers together form a connected "water-world". These rivers engendered conversations between multi-agentive mobility and large-scale place-making and were at the heart of inter-Asian engagements and integration until the formal end of the European empires. Being both a subject and a sponsor of transregional crossings, the paper argues, these rivers point to the need for a new historical approach that registers the connections between parts of the Southeast Asian massif through to the expansive plain land and the vast coastal rim of the Bay of Bengal and the China Seas. A connection that could be framed through the concept of Holon.

  • With the advent of the 4th industrial era and the development of digital technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), metaverse, 3D printing, and 3D virtual wearing systems, the fashion industry continues to attempt to use digital technology and introduce it into various areas. The purpose of this study was to determine whether fashion and digital technology could be combined to create works and to suggest ways to apply digital technology in the fashion industry. As a research method, image generative AI, Midjourney was applied to the initial design ideation stage to derive inspiration images. 3D printing technique was then introduced as a production method to print fashion jewelry. As a result of the research, a total of six jewelry designs printed with a 3D printer were developed. One necklace, one bracelet, three earrings, and one ring were developed. This study identified the possibility of applying digital technology to real fashion jewelry design products by designing jewelry based on inspirational images derived from image generation AI and producing pieces of fashion jewelry with 3D modeling tasks and 3D printing outputs. This study is significant in that it expands the expression area of fashion jewelry design that combines digital technology.
