printingparametersisallaboutcontrol


I am deep into the 3D printer. Still working with the 3D printing software; Google sketchUp, 3D Builder, PrusaSlicer – to work out what can be achieved, whilst also trying to figure out how to be in vague control of the activity. The parameters of printing possibilities seem endless, at one end an object can be formed solid like a block of non-material, it is all about the physical structure. At the other the delicate strands of PLA align with textile activity, weaving and basketry. I enjoy the feeling that the object seems to of been conceived in another universe, somehow they just arrive but the latter gives the work a deconstructed tone, not just in its physical making but also in that when viewing the mind can and does try to work out how the object was made. Onto screens - Rare Beasts – glorious storytelling https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8419594/ Cruella – glorious retelling yet overly long. Wrath of Man - Stath gloriously doing Stath.
