Resumo(s)
Our ancestors communicated stories through tapestries, using them
to adorn public and private spaces. Traditionally, these tapestries
were static artworks hanging on walls without audience interaction.
Nevertheless, textiles offer a versatile medium, crafted from diverse
materials and colours and manipulated to produce unique, touch
responsive textures. Our work integrates the tactile capabilities of
weaving with capacitive sensor technology to create an interactive
art installation that fosters non-formal learning and raises aware
ness about marine noise pollution and its harmful effects on marine
ecosystems. Marine animals, particularly cetaceans, rely heavily on
sound for communication, navigation, and hunting. Noise pollution
disrupts these essential functions, presenting severe threats to their
survival. By harnessing the storytelling potential of tapestries and
the power of capacitive sensors connected to a microcontroller, we
developed a unique and immersive art installation that educates
the public and decision-makers about these pressing issues. This
study evaluates the impact of this interactive tapestry on its audi
ence. Qualitative and quantitative results suggest valuable insights,
showcasing that Tapest[o]ry engages participants through its tan
gible storytelling interface, fostering emotional responses such as
empathy and compassion. Participants shared their thoughts about
awareness of marine noise pollution, demonstrating the possible
use of interactive art installations as storytelling tools. Our findings
highlight the potential of integrating traditional textile techniques
with interactive technology and storytelling to create powerful
educational experiences outside formal learning environments, en
couraging personal reflection and support for environmental issues.
