Transformando pixels em nós: pixel art em macramê a partir de imagens digitais

Abstract

Craftsmanship has played a significant role in human life since the emergence of early civilized societies, being passed down from generation to generation. With the advancement of digital technologies and the proliferation of the Internet, new opportunities have arisen for the transmission and learning of manual arts. In this context, the aim of this work is to develop a tutorial guide for producing pixel art macramé pieces from digital images. To ensure the quality of the tutorial guide, we have developed a heuristic that ensures adherence to all structural rules of pixel art macramé. The obtained results have revealed the importance of the size of the piece on its visual characteristics, with the possibility of losing details in smaller pieces. However, we are pleased to confirm that the achieved results were satisfactory in relation to the proposed objectives. With this approach, we are contributing to the preservation and evolution of craftsmanship by adapting it to new technologies and enabling more people to access this form of creative expression.
