Silankap is a major pattern form in the traditional brocade art of the Tujia ethnic group, which includes many pattern systems, and each pattern represents the historical memory, belief symbols, and life stories of the Tujia ethnic group. I have organized the patterns of Silankap from a visual narrative perspective and found that there are characteristics of "geometric configuration, color expression, and structural narrative" in Silankap patterns. In response to the current phenomenon of "shallow pattern extraction, lack of cultural semantics, and lack of interaction" in the digital communication of Silankap, a digital flat translation strategy of "three-layer translation+dual track parallel" is proposed, a progressive translation path of "symbol extraction semantic connection narrative reconstruction", and a dual track parallel design track of "static visual presentation+dynamic interactive experience" are proposed. Research has found that the digital inheritance of Silankap cannot simply preserve the patterns with high fidelity and then simply use its patterns, but requires the establishment of a translation system from "form" to "meaning" and then to "environment", so that the weaving stories left by our ancestors can be perceived and integrated into the digital age, and grow again.
