After a few months, the RoboSculpt project finally has a real example. Awhile back I blogged about a new project I had started for a digital fabrication class required of the MSDT students. When Wes McGee helped me cut some tests and I did some fiberglass layups, I gained some more excitement on the project. The normal semester took over most of my time, […]

The sheet music itself is […]

The semester has concluded and our Digital Fabrication research has ended as well. Our four person research trajectory was exploring how to use parallel pleat techniques found in origami to manipulate plastic in a way that can be aggregated into a self standing structure. Before we even chose research topics I had begun to fold parallel pleated octagons after seeing them in an origami […]
