Biomimetic Butterflies

Biomimetic Butterflies was an installation by the barbarian group of butterflies laser cut out of paper. The installation combined laser cutting, the open source programming language Processing, open source Arduino hardware, and a Mac Mini with a webcam. The wing patterns were designed with Processing using algorithmic design techniques. Essentially, the patterns are generated mathematically using random numbers within user-defined constraints. The barbarian group made five “families” of wing patterns using five types of algorithms–voronoi, flow lines, intersecting lines, cracking, and circle packing.

These patterns were then laser cut out of heavy drawing paper, connected in pairs with a fabric hinge, and pinned down after having tiny rare earth magnets attached to them. Controlling the Arduino board is a Mac Mini with a web cam that “watches” the people viewing the installation. Wearable Art Blog: April 2010. Silke Knetsch Earrings: gold and unidentified stones What attracted me to the works of Silke Knetsch and Christian Streit is their strong geometry and use of colorful stones.

They also have an interesting story. Knetsch, from Germany, and Streit, from Romania, have been jewelers since 1997, when they set up their own studio in Freiburg, Germany, after meeting at a jewelry-making workshop in Barcelona. Silke Knetsch Earrings: silver, gold, karneol, prasiolith Knetsch has a wonderful way of combining stones with silver and gold and creating compelling geometry. Christian Streit Ring: silver, white gold, citrine, diamond I also like the sensuous curves and teardrop shapes that Streit uses. Christian Streit Ring: silver, gold, onyx, diamond chips. Painting a One-Off QR Code on a Large Surface. Step #1: PrevNext So you want to put a QR code on something.

Painting a One-Off QR Code on a Large Surface

You may want to research QR codes on Wikipedia and the sites it lists as references. QR codes can have 7%-30% ECC, but require a 'quiet zone' of 4 bits around the code itself. Floating Glow Display. Iconic architecture illustrations by andré chiote. Feb 26, 2013 iconic architecture illustrations by andré chiote ‘iconic architecture illustrations’ by andré chioteMAC de niteroi portuguese illustrator andré chiote has approached architecture as iconic typologies – developing sets of images which aim to simultaneously outline the emblematic and distinctive characteristics of various buildings. by creating different graphic compositions, the expressionism speaks out beyond the structures themselves. works such as oscar niemeyer’s centro niemeyer, marcel breuer’s whitney museum and renzo piano’s LACMA buildings are found within the series. fundação iberê camargo.

IAAC MAA 2010: Digital Fabrication Class - BLOG. “Bench” MODEL and Laser Cuttering by Carolina Aguirre/Carolina Miro The second assignment required decomposing the 3D design of a piece of furniture, into 2D elements to laser cut them as its pieces.

It was also important to consider that the model would be part of a fluid whole later on, so it had to respect the limits given for it and the shape of its initial and final faces. Resuming the design process, it was developed inside the boundaries given and taking advantage of some free space to give it some movement through the invisible cage. Then, the its top was modified by using control points to give it some flatness that would allow it to be useful as a confortable bench. Laser Cut. Summershow08. Principe Felipe Science Museum.

Creating Living Hinges. Make: Projects Rigid materials don't bend much -- that's why we call them "rigid.

Creating Living Hinges

" However, we can create "living hinges" that take advantage of the slight degree of bend and make it possible to create very large bends that possess a unique aesthetic. Here's how... I have a particular interest in discovering new ways to push the limits of material fabrication with my laser cutter. In this guide I’m going to give you an overview of living hinges that will allow you to make bends (and springs!)

More importantly, I’m going to try to add a bit of theory to this so that you can extend these techniques in new and better ways. Résultats de recherche pour laser. Signs Signwriter Supplier AU wide. The Field Group Reception Sign Laser cut from 1.6 mm mirror finish Stainless Steel laser cut letters, applied to 10 mm Clear Acrylic laser cut letters. This layering adds depth to your logo and lettering. Coloured sections can be made using Vinyl, which is applied with a slight inline, allowing the 3D effect to come through brilliantly. In the image above, you can see the red backing of the industrial strength double-sided tape we supplied with the lettering. This is peeled off for installation, and is invisible once on the wall.
