The physical results of Ms. Oxman’s work, which often manifest themselves in fantastic shapes and complicated structures, could only come to being through 3D Printing technology, which is an additive (formative) rather than a subtractive process. 3D Printing does not wastefully chip away at existing material, it forms impossible materials in “impossible geometries.”
The PhoneScope 3D from Spatial Vision and Design offers high-resolution magnified 3D scanning that can have applications for users ranging from forensics specialists to CGI animators.
Educated as an architect and computer programmer, Michael Hansmeyer intends to create a new kind of architectural expression using the mathematics of algorithms. The 2.7 meter high columns are fabricated as a layered model with sheets 1mm thick. The individually cut sheets are stacked and held together by poles that run through a common core. To cut the sheets, the astonishing 6 million faces of the 3D model are intersected with a plane representing the sheet.
