Exploring Cultures through Pattern Mining - Practices from Generative Beauty Workshops
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a method for understanding personal ways of thinking and doing in daily lives among different countries by mining their ways as patterns in a sense of pattern language. Pattern language is a methodology of describing tacit practical knowledge, where each pattern consists of context, problem, and solution. In this paper, patterns mined from the workshops we held in the following three countries: Japan, Korea, and the United States, are analysed. The results demonstrate similarities and reflect characteristics of the patterns of each country. We anticipate that this workshop can be used as a method for better understanding of cultural similarities and features in the light of practical knowledge in daily lives.
