Neural Field Construction of Village Cultural Heritage and Economic Value Regeneration

Abstract

In response to the existing issues of spatial disconnection, behavioral interruption, and emotional detachment in the current protection of traditional village cultural heritage, a theoretical framework of "cultural neural field" is proposed, aiming to construct a dynamic cultural system composed of spatial nodes, behavioral pathways, emotional consensus, and value recycling. Taking the Shiqiao Village in Fengning Manchu Autonomous County, Chengde, Hebei Province as a case, this study sorts out the broken structure and potential for reconnection of cultural resources in the village through field investigation, node identification, and pathway analysis. On this basis, a three-dimensional construction strategy of "pathway linkage - emotional awakening - value co-creation" is proposed, covering aspects such as the redrawing of cultural behavior maps, activation of identification emotions, and design of co-creation cultural and tourism mechanisms. The research emphasizes that the vitalization of traditional cultural heritage should not be confined to physical restoration and festive performances. Instead, it requires the construction of a cultural system that is transmittable, perceptible, and feedback-oriented, promoting the coordinated growth of cultural identity and economic efficiency.
