Digital Eclecticism Workshop 1 / Printed Matter
Isaie Bloch & Gilles Retsin
The Digital Eclecticism Workshop series is based around teaching an overview of digital tools, techniques and ideas through hands-on design of a 3D-printed product. Participants will learn how to design and model a product specifically for 3D printing. This involves an in-depth introduction in 3D modelling software packages, combined with personal design tutorials and discussions. Alongside the workshop, a lecture series with invited artists and designers will bring participants in touch with the cutting edge of digital practitioners in London.
This first workshop in the Digital Eclecticism series will focus on designing small 3D printed objects with a specific focus on post-processing of printed material. 3D printed products will be expanded by post-processing them with colours, resins or by using them as a negative for casting. Typical products could be: rings, hangers, bracelets, cutlery, a small sculpture, etc
The workshop will be taught by Isaie Bloch (Eragatory, , UCL The Bartlett, UEL) and Gilles Retsin (Retsin.org, UCL The Bartlett, UEL) and is hosted by Digets2Widgets.
The workshop is open to 15 participants, and will accept applications on a first come first serve basis. We are interested in strong design profiles, and no previous knowledge required. A CV or a portfolio is not required.
To apply, please visit digitaleclecticism.tumblr.com or send us an email at {encode="[email protected]" title="[email protected]"}.
The deadline for applications is August 31, 2015.
