| Summary: | Digital Twin Exhibition - An Exploration of Garment Circularity examines
the provenance and structure of a set of garments with data used to predict their
potential for circularity. Utilising visualisation techniques to create an immersive
digital twin mapping the real-world exhibition of garments on level 3 of the TL
Robertson Library, pop-ups in the digital tour provide access to available garment
data along with a description of potential circularity based on garment data
analytics. The visualisation offers access to a high-resolution interactive online
platform mapping garment characteristics impacting on circular activity in the
fashion and textile industry. Selected examples in this exhibition are
photogrammetrically 3D reconstructed to create digital twins that are annotated
with detailed information regarding the potential for circularity. It is proposed to
use infographics, images, text and video within the virtual tour and digital twin
exhibition as a communication tool to disseminate the garment mapping data.
The exhibition links with the ongoing research project
"Closing the Loop on Clothing Textile Waste locally". An interdisciplinary industry collaboration research project which positions design as the central focus of practice-led
research. The focus of this research is on developing local collaborative systems
that are circular, agile and can provide the flexibility needed in small and/or
physically isolated communities such as those found in Western Australia. It will
also investigate the potential for global uptake and application of these local
systems. The Closing the Loop project extends the pilot survey of WA fashion
circularity conducted in 2022/23 and responds to recommendations of “The
State of Fashion & Textile Circularity in WA” report launched in September 2023. |
