Chewanzhou食泉食美

Interactive narrative game, Digital heritage, 3D scanning, Unreal Engine 5 / Group Project

Developed from field research in Quanzhou conducted in collaboration with BNBU and National Geographic China, Chewanzhou reimagines the city's historical role as a major trading port along the Maritime Silk Road through interactive storytelling. Set within a stylized restaurant, the game uses merchants, ingredients, and traditional dishes as narrative devices to explore the circulation of spices, culinary practices, and cultural influences across maritime trade routes. Combining 3D scanning with environment design in Unreal Engine 5, the project transforms historical research into an explorable digital environment, revealing the intertwined histories of everyday food, cultural memory, and maritime exchange.

互动叙事游戏、文化遗产数字化、三维扫描、Unreal Engine 5 / 小组项目

本项目源于北师香港浸会大学（BNBU）与《中国国家地理》合作开展的泉州世界遗产田野考察。作品以泉州作为海上丝绸之路重要贸易港口的历史为背景，将跨地域贸易与文化交融的历史转译为互动叙事体验。游戏以风格化餐馆为叙事空间，通过商人、食材与传统菜品之间的联系，呈现香料、烹饪技艺及饮食文化沿海上贸易路线的传播与融合。项目结合三维扫描技术与 Unreal Engine 5 场景构建，将历史研究转化为可探索的数字空间，重新审视日常饮食背后交织的文化记忆与海洋贸易历史。
