This document describes a project by Ji Sun Lee that visualizes ASMR sounds through embroidery applied to textiles and wearables. By utilizing conductive thread and programming, users can interact with embroidered patterns that trigger corresponding ASMR sounds. Lee is a professor specializing in maker education, with a background in user interface design and media arts exhibition.

1. ASMRVISUALIZATION
w. EMBROIDERY
可视化刺绣ASMR

3. ASMR VISUALIZATION with EMBROIDERY
This project visualizes ASMR sounds and applies them to textiles and
wearable using embroidery circuits. ASMR sounds with repeated pat-
terns were visualized on Turtle Stitch S/W and exported as .DST for
embroidery. The visualized vector was embroidered with a conductive
thread on a textile. When the user touches the visualization sounds with
embroidery, each ASMR sound is played through Sound player board.
该项目将ASMR声音可视化，并使用绣花电路将其应用于纺织品和可穿戴
设备。具有重复模式的ASMR声音在Turtle Stitch S / W 上实现可视化，
并作为绣花矢量导出。可视化的矢量在纺织品上使用可以导电的绣线，当
用户触摸带有绣花的可视化声音时，每个ASMR声音都会通过音板播放。
