Abstract

The Internet and its virtual environment offer new and unused methods and technologies, which can be used to solve given problems under research. This paper deals with three different methods for the use of Tag Clouds in the creation of garment motifs out of written texts about a person/creature, which can be used as a tool for transposition of mythological concepts into fashion. In the first experiment, we standardized and changed vernacular words with formal Slovenian literary language, and analyzed the text after that. In the second experiment, we observed the words and phrases commonly associated with clothes, personality and physical properties of creatures under research. In the third experiment, we took into account the design process. Through analysis and comparison of each method, we found that the third method, which takes into the account the design process, is the most suitable as a tool to create garment motifs. This research paper provides a method for visualization of descriptive terms from a given text and proposes the use of this method as a tool for designers.
