SEND TO PRINT / PRINT TO SEND is at The Aram Gallery from 13th Jan - 25th Feb 2012
“[The exhibition] offers an impression of the uses of 3D Printing in the design industry today. This timely exhibition shows work by designers and organisations who are developing the capabilities of this technology. In addition it will include examples of the increasingly important role 3D Printing plays in the design process, particularly during the complex prototyping stages. Featuring pieces from the studios of both established and emerging designers, The Aram Gallery uses this exhibition as a way to examine how designers’ processes are developing to accommodate new technological advances.”

Ljus by Zackery Belanger was designed by applying swarm intelligence to a three-dimensional point cloud of Leah Jung. By giving each point in the cloud autonomy and assessing mathematical relationships to surrounding points, swarm behavior was harnessed, and through a linearly-constrained transformation, a chair based on the human form was defined.

collaboration,
“By not seeing borders, designers expand their possibilities at a time when websites are spilling off desktops onto streets and computing in public is becoming a behavioural norm. With the blurring of borders between disciplines, and across devices, time zones and communication spaces comes a new mode of collaboration. The changes necessitate a new form of collaborative enterprise - not just with team members, but with the target audience.”

“In short I believe that the way our business now tends to make “being interesting” subordinate to “being logical” is the single greatest reason why a lot of advertising is awful.”

“One common argument for humanoid robots is that as our homes are based around the scale and form of humans it is logical that the robots operating in this space should be based on the same form. With Robots approaches the issue from an alternative perspective looking at how our homes and objects might change in order to accommodate the needs of robots”.

procedural literacy,
“Even those practitioners who don’t themselves write much code will find themselves on interdisciplinary collaborative teams of artists, designers and programmers. Such collaborations are often doomed to failure because of the inability to communicate across the cultural divide between the artists and programmers. Only practitioners who combine procedural literacy with a conceptual and historical grounding in art and design can bridge this gap and enable true collaboration.”

“It is – perhaps – at once a fascination with the raw possibility of a technology, and – a disinterest, in a way, of anything but the qualities of its output. Perhaps it happens when new technology becomes cheap and mundane enough to experiment with, and break – when it becomes semi-domesticated but still a little significantly other. When it becomes a working material not a technology.”
— Matt Jones - Sensor Vernacular
