A course
offered at the University of Tennessee's College of Architecture and
Design uses a Techno LC Series Router to help "explore how
Digital Manufacturing techniques reveal beauty, structure and technique
latent within topographical surface modeling."
"The Digital
Manufacturing (DM) course sponsors research that explores
how the change from standardized industrial processes to
digitally-based fabrication methods promotes new ornament in
architecture, one that integrates structure, program and
beauty. These design investigations examine the
possibilities of surface modulation through digital
manufacturing, a process that exploits the reciprocal
effects between digital information and material
production." |
